    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?

    That's enough.

    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: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
