Mid-Season Rookie Draft: Check out the full list of nominees

 

https://www.afc.com.au/news/2019-05-04/midseason-draft-nominees

I don't know one player from another (with a few exceptions, such as Jake Spencer) but note there's a born defender in the list by the name of Philip Backman and a player from WA called Ajang Ajang which, unfortunately for him, is also the name of a known terrorist group in the Philippines. 

Good luck to them all.

    Tyler Roos is also on that list

    I don't know them either,  'LDvC'.

    I haven't followed any under 18's,  in recent years.  So I posted this site,  in the hope some here might be familiar with some of those Kids.  And hopefully get-back some insights on them.

    Actually I don't even know they're ages ?

    Angus Hanrahan (Sandringham) represents good value for a young small mid sized forward.  Also good pace for future midfield wingman.  Think a young Melksham.

    My money is on a slow inside mid with average footskills to complement the plethora we have already.

    What about this Lowson guy lightning quick Coburg VFL forward, leading the goal kicking. Richmond, Carltank and Norf in the hunt. Sounds like something we need ....?

    Theres gotta be another Allen Jakovich type out there in the country somewhere.  We plucked him out of the SANFL at age 22.

    Come on Jason Taylor, bring us an X factor showstopper who puts bums on seats.

    Perhaps we could pick up Jaxon Briggs from Casey. Could be a surprise packet.

    Corey Gregson mentioned.  Small mid forward. Charlie Spargo mark 2.  Injury prone history. 

    Ummmmmm ... no

    Ahh clearly you need to get behind our recruiting strategy.

    Gregson would be a perfect fit on our long term injury list with 4 x surgeries on a troubled left foot.

    Lets sign him up.

    Best bet is still Corey Gault for the Dees.  Goalkicker. Physically AFL ready to go.  198 cms. Forward/ruck role.  

    You're kidding yourself, he's to slow to play AFL no tricks and would be well behind Pruess and Keilty.

    We need 

    Small/Med Forward 

    Outside mid

    HBF with run and decent disposal

    Wants v Needs 

    I want us to be absolutely dominant,  in-between the Arcs. 

    We can have average keys from there,  because the dominant Mid players will hit them lace up anyway.

    We've got a little way to go still,  as we do-not have  the best midfield, atmo.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
