    Does Bontempelli not age?   He has been 22 for 5 years.

    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,

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
