you can almost include Petracca in this draft lot,

Petracca and Oliver = Engine room for the next 10 years

Hogan and Weiderman = key forwards for the next 10 years

just to reiterate the obvious:

next year's inclusions to the side are Melksham, Kennedy, Bugg, Oliver, Weideman, Petracca and Trengove

not too shabby

seriously, how good is this midfield group?

viney
trengove

According to Sam landsberger, "Essendon stole the show with seven shrewd selections", please let this be another wines/toumpas fiasco... Also they hardly stole the show, a lightly framed mid who displays no exceptional speed, endurance or skill and a utility whom most are unsure as to where he will play at afl level. If anything I think Brisbane had a great draft. Notwithstanding getting Schache - the tall toward they desperately needed - securing academy players Eric Hipwood and then Ben Keays (who i think will be a gun) the latter much later than predicted allowing them to swoop on Rhys Mathieson with pick 39 (painfully close to our 3rd pick), allowed them to adress their needs whilst avoiding any strong go home factorr, all in all a great draft for the lions.

I assume he's just another essendrugs supporter, so what's the point, just another garbage journalist spewing out biased cr*p. I'm surprised he didn't take a pot at melbourne whilst he was at it, then he'd have all bases covered.

I'm really happy with these selections, and both players seem thrilled to have been picked up by us.

Particularly excited by Weideman as his addition gives us the potential to have the best forward line in the competition. If he can reach his potential, defenders will have nightmares about playing the Dees.

Viney, Brayshaw, Tyson, Salem, Petracca, Parish.

Just wanted to see what that looked like in black and white.

Something that is bugging me and is hardly related to the MFC but really gets me is why the hell SOS is rated so highly as a recruiter! he's screwed up so many more picks than he's gotten right.

2012 he grabbed...1: Whitfield ( looks good but obvious choice )

2:O'rourke ( gone to hawks after showing little )

3: Plowman ( gone to blues after showing little )

12: Jacksh ( gone to blues after showing little )

14: Corr ( looks okay, but not standing out )

2013 1. Boyd ( gone to dogs after showing little )

2. Kelly ( looks a player but obvious pick 2 )

14: McCarthey ( good but wants out already )

2014 4. Picket ( eh, did he even play? )

6. Marchbank ( looks okay )

7. Ahern ( meh )

11 selections inside the top 14 in 3 years and imo 2 players that look like long term giants is a Melbourne-like result.

hope his strike rate is better at the blues, for their sake.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
