So it is age 'under 22' from the start of the season/year I gather?

Obviously Lever would be in if not injured for mroe than half the season.

It is nice to think that from two very strong drafts (2014 and first round of 2015) we've managed to gather perhaps 4 of the top 5 players.

Also, that age category method means Fritsch still has next year, and you'd have to be pretty confident he'll get there.

Its just nice, y'know, just nice.

Clarry, He is a Gun footballer, Angus  and Petrac  they are not far behind. Congrats on making the under 22 side. The 3 Amigo's will be on display against the Cats next Friday and beyond.  Beware of the 3 Amigo's for the next  decade. They're out to get ya!

Scene: it's September (or near as dammit).

Instead of studying the likely early draft picks, you are getting fired up about finals tickets.

You are studying the AA team, alternately gloating, and groaning that MORE Demons were not recognized.

You are studying the 22under22, gloating/groaning.

You are wondering if Max will finish 1st or 2nd in the Brownlow.

You are feeling remarkably at peace with the world.

Now the question, true or false: ARE YOU DREAMING?

Anyone know the list of players that have made both All Australian and the under 22 team?

It must be a special achievement by our Clarry.

Botempelli, Josh Kelly and Zac Merrett would be my first guesses.

What's obvious from this year's team is how long it takes to develop as a ruckman.  Most of those picked are comfortably in their sides best 22.  Not to be disrespectful to Darcy, but he'd struggle to get a regular game at most teams.  Looks like Trac has to come off the bench to relieve in the ruck as well.

Presumably from the start of the AFL season. Patrick Cripps turned 23 on 18 March. I can only assume he missed out on age rather than for any other reason.

And what a world of pain St Kilda is in. At least Carlton, Brisbane and Freo have some young stars.

Gresham and Ronke on the ground before Trac. 

Please! 

I agree with you regarding Ronke, however Gresham has had a much better season the Trac,

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
