This topic seems oh so simple, but who do we like? As a drunk 36 year old sitting at a pub in Amsterdam, I was perusing DL and realised I hadn't seen such a topic. Basically, who's ya boy? Who's jumper number would you get on your back after a 2018 flag?

i'd go for Brayshaw. Love his passion and love for the Dees, on top of his obvious talent. He's great to listen to on the AFL Exchange podcast too. Loved attending a training sesh at Gosch's a few years ago and seeing him kick a banana from the boundary before falling back (opposite of face plant style) in the deciduous leaves that had gathered around him. Angus is mah boy!

Jayden Hunt, notwithstanding he’s out of the team at present and has had a tough year. He’ll be back and will be huge for us in the years to come. Raw pace, great spring, manic attack on ball, huge kick. Just needs the experience and fitness to add to that and he’ll be awesome

James Harmes has bolted to pole position for mine. A fanatical Demon supporter growing up, drafted from the rookie list and now having a break out year when we’ve made finals. 

I wish I was James Harmes because this kid is living the dream.

100% Oliver. People think I'm nuts the way I talk about him. I will rewind it when he does something incredible in tight and make everyone watch.

And my wife picked Nev out even before he was delisted and rookied, so she loves reminding me of it everytime he does something well.

My son loves Jonesy, and my daughter loves "Pig".

I have a bit of a connection with James Harmes. Played against his Dad many years ago, and James grew up playing with my nephews. They are all still good mates. I have been rapt to see his improvement from a fringe player to a key part of the Demons set up.

This is tough. So hard to elevate one player ahead of what is an awesome group. I wear Petracca's no. right now and Clarry would be very close. I think I gotta go with Harmes. He's quickly becoming a heart and soul guy of the club.

Jetta. Met him the year he got drafted and my wife and I had a chat with him, great fella. 

The way he plays is exactly what is expected and that mark he took on Rioli against the eagles was a defining moment.

love that jetta (in particular) is getting so much love.. so cool that anyone could say any current player now and it could be accepted and acknowledged as legitimate. bit different to a few years ago!

Tmac for me - embodies the notion that hard work pays off. He sets a great example on and off the field for the group.

Apologies to Harmes, Clarry, Gawn and Nev

This thread demonstrates why we’re on our way to a flag. Love it.

Despite my username, I’ve just gotta go with Maxy on this one. He’s a collossus and loves the club. When he was asked on a footy show of his thoughts when he sees kids wearing our jumper with his number on it, he said “it’s great that they remember Jimmy”

He is all class and talent. Deserved AA ruckman.

For a very welcome change, this is an enormously difficult call.

For me though I find Clarrie absolutely magical: THE quickest thinker and THE best vision I can recall at any time from any player from any team.

Takes the breath away some of the ridiculous stuff he pulls off. 

But it is unfair to the likes of Max, Nev, Angus, and Jonesy for his perseverance .... and many more.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
