Reading Brent Harvey's comments about Curnow and Cripps being the best U23 in the comp, I think Boomer should have a look at Melbournes U23 side( Cripps is 23 so it is 23 and under)

JKH  Hogan  Spargo

Fritsch  Weiderman ANB

Stretch Brayshaw Salem

Hunt  Lever Baker

Smith O Mac Petty

King Petracca Oliver

McKenna Balic Johnstone Filipovic

 

Pretty handy bunch with Hogan, Petracca, Oliver, Lever, Hunt with All Australian honours written all over them and I reckon Brayshaw and Salem have the ability as well

    I saw this on Twitter. Surely you would take Hogan, Oliver and Trac over Curnow! The kids had one great game.

    Some people make stupid statements in the face of facts so we must feel sorry for Harvey's comments, he did not look wide enough in his sample ... Go Dees!

    You can add Viney to that list (still 23).

    So my Under 23 side would be:

    B:   Hunt        Lever        Smith

    HB: Baker       O Mac      Salem

    C:    Stretch     Oliver       ANB

    HF:   Petracca   Hogan    Fritsch

    F:      Spargo      Weid       JKH

    R:     King      Brayshaw     Viney

    Int: Balic    Johnstone   Wagner  Petty    

    I have highlighted the players from this list that are currently in the best 22 (11). So a team thea is expected to play finals this year, currently has half it's team made up o players 23 and under.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
