No Joel Garner in top 25! All class.  

The kid is top 15 easily 

Maybe hope for the Dees in the second round. 

Would be perfect. Skilled.  Runs all day. Think Andrew Gaff type. But with Hodge like leadership. 

Not only that but he's nearly as tall as Maxy Gawn and his right arm fast bowling is capable of ripping through the heart of opposing batting line-ups.

I use to highly value Cal Twomey's opinion until I saw his 2008 draft recap the other day (he did it with such confidence, but it was shocking). I also found out he is an Essendon supporter... :D

Another one that doesnt have the balls to do an actual mock draft.

 

 

Is this your first rodeo?

Power Rankings usually the week before, phantom drafts a day or 2 before.

Just relax.

On the topic of phantom drafts, the first I've seen has dreamy results. Brett Andersons on sen:

https://www.sen.com.au/news/2017/11/20/brett-andersons-2017-afl-mock-draft/

has us netting the best ruck in the draft, Matthew Ling who I was hoping would fall to us, and Bailey Fritsch, everyone's Casey love affair. Also some other kid above all these with our first pick. Very lofty hopes for us I would think.

Pretty sure Brett Anderson is a Melbourne Supporter too!

Brett Anderson's Mock Draft also has one Dom Barry going to the Pies at Pick #57.  I'll be very interested to see if he gets selected on the night, or if he is picked up in the rookie draft.

Amazing mock by Anderson 

Baker at 29.  Hmmm. He is fast but disposal needs work. Garner appeals more if available 

Hayes at 31. An absolute steal 

Ling at 39. Wow.  Pace smarts and a mid goalkicker.  Yes though I would grab him at 29. Surely Cats take him

Fritsch at 47.   Yes. Though I’d take him earlier

Not sure the pies would be a good fit for dom barry

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
