    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.

    Id like to see Olisik take on this now considering he judges a player based 'highlights'

    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.

    As above. Re read, and get back to me.

    Whats wrong with you people?

    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?

    Clean hands, patient in traffic and a deft kick.

    Reminded me of a young Travis Johnstone...

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
