I reckon TMac and Brayshaw stiff to miss. 

Given Brayshaw’s played more games than Viney I’d imagine he’ll poll better. I was about to say if it’s maximum 5 per team then fair enough but Geelong get seven (most of any team). Someone wanna explain that to me?

I'm not sure but maybe captains get an automatic invite.

Pretty sure this is correct, as they were making a big deal about Lynch not going for the Suns

most teams have 5. captains and past winners automatic selections. Danger Ablett and Selwood all  auto selections then they have 4 others. we have 2 captains hence 3 other invitees

I suspect captains and past winners get an automatic gong. Geelong has two winners and Richmond one which seems to be a possible explanation why they have seven and six respectively?

I dare say it’s due to the fact we could be playing in a Grand Final and they want all captains there from the remaining 4 teams so Bruce can creep up behind them and whisper in their ears..

I did consider that, so I guess they place them as separate to the usual invitees then.

Even with the auto-selections of Jones, Viney, Max and Clarry you'd think Brayshaw or TMac would sneak in ahead of Melk. No offence to Melk as he's had some great numbers attributed to him this year.

I would, but I'm a bit suspicious that you might be a Carlton supporter looking for a cheap ticket to the draft instead.

Can you provide proof?

Well that just says so much about what a joke the AFL is.

Neville Jetta is one of 4 nominees for the Stynes Medal, also presented on the night, he isn't going to get that award though because he isn't invited. Of course the other 3 are. I'm sure the people making these decisions aren't racist they probably just don't care.

The AFL - an organisation of idiots led by an incompetent fool.

As long as he keeps it to just that. We're in the era of #metoo. Bruce wants to be careful.

Geelong Richmond & Hawks tables will need extra security for that reason.

Gus will be our 3rd highest vote getter and poll double figures easily.  Surprised he wasn't invited.

Without looking at any predictors or form guides im tipping j.hogan 3 votes to jump out of the blocks early followed by c. Oliver 2 votes then when the media were all over the aa ruckman the umpires will realize they shouldn't be handing out votes because they struggle with the job they have and have no clue how to judge footballers and just vote for the midfielder they see get the ball most so will jump on the media hype and the leader board will finish m.gawn 3 votes c.oliver 2 votes with razor fan boying  over a.brayshaw 1 vote after the low five. T.Mac will be referred to as Tomald once more by a channel 7 former player battling early onset dementia caused by concussions (was it bt or frawley? If anyone is affected or family member affected by this terrible disease please dont take offence or personally, it is intended as light hearted) Fooling all channel 7 big wigs he is popular and deserves more air time and we will return to calling him Tomald and he will probably pip j.hogan for 4th with hogans strong start holding onto 5th.

    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.
