    ok ok, i know I will cop flak from the PCers, but omg, he is the epitome of how we have been viewed by the rest of the teams in the comp for 50 years.

    I hope the kid can seriously play, or fight like a thrashing machine, because he is going to be targeted every game he plays, just for the way he looks.

    Looks like a character straight out of a 70's Medieval movie. Can someone photoshop a shield and sword on him?

    hahhaha that is ridiculous who gives two toss bags about how he looks. Can he play footy?

    So he needs a haircut?

    Honestly, that is what your problem boils down to.

    I see what all the fuss is about. If we're taking the best available, welcome Darcy Parish.

    Cop flak from the PCer's? Mate who cares what they say...and frankly you have bigger problems. You don't want to draft someone because you are afraid of being teased.

    Really.

    Clean hands, not afraid of the contest, nice kick and knows how to find the footy. Could compliment our young midfielders nicely.

    PROS:

    -good mark.

    -good inside player.

    -good outside player.

    -finds the footy.

    -brings team mates into the game.

    -good kick.

    -good visions.

    -HITS TARGETS INSIDE 50.

    -Plays forward (good for new rotation cap).

    -tackles.

    - runs/works hard

    - Goodwin has already been watching him at the Falcons, talking to him in the rooms (confirmed by my friend who works with them)

    CONS (according to some experts on here)

    - too short

    -too light (even though he is roughly the same weight as Fyfe and Sloan when they were drafted)

    - looks like a Disney Prince

    Tim, can you kindly point out where exactly in my post, that I state that I dont want us to draft the kid?

    I've looked a few times now, but i cant seem to find it.

    Someone posted about his looks, so i added a light hearted comment about it. Maybe you need to not take things so seriously.

    Unless the vibe is wrong, we probably should only be discussing pick 7. Too many around town are saying Darcy is a lock for us.

    But this is the Darcy Parish thread Red.

    I think its probably considered appropriate to discuss Parish here. :)

    You did say that you would cop flak. Are you surprised now that you have copped it?

    Yes, my boo boo.

    Jesse Hogan will be having wet dreams over the prospect of Salem moving into the midfield and Parish joining us and those two blokes kicking the ball into him,

    He'll be unstoppable, he was dominant with some of the terrible entries he got last year.

    I'm pretty sure we have every base covered. A delicious melting pot of crazies.

    Re Parish's looks, he'll only get targeted if he plays in a manner that attracts such attention. Fyfe is widely admired and praised. Watts attracts derision from all corners. Both boyish looking with pretty hair. Poles apart in the way they play.

    He looks like a super neat kick who will bring his teammates into the play.

    I think he'd definitely add to our midfield and I expect it will be him at #4, as we will bid for Mills and he'll go at #3.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
