Has made a reasonable fist of playing on ball in the back end of the season, so not just an outside dasher, has a few strings to his bow.

    Now GCS have picks 1 and 2, this guy becomes a good option at 3

    That's not official is it?

    No. Numerous rumours saying it will be announced tomorrow

    if Ash develops the contested side of his game further and starts hurting opponents more by foot, he can feature inside the first round of this year's draft.

    Sounds like a question about his kicking.  Pass.  The last thing we need is to bring in another Grimes on HB.

    His kicking is reliable, just not Young level elite. His speed is a weapon.

    This article was written in April, so I think that was referencing an area to improve on for the season ahead.  No idea if he has or not.

    I quite like Knightmare’s espn reports as they often spend a bit of time on the player’s flaws and don’t just claim every 17yo in the next Chris Judd like most draft articles.

    DRAFT ANALYSIS: "A natural-born leader with elite kicking abilities, Ash makes the right decisions with ball-in-hand and is a damaging player coming off half-back."

    Has some nice attributes but he reminded me a bit of a short Sam Frost TBH. The other players he reminds me of is Daniel Bell for some reason

    Likes to run and carry but sometimes didn't look like it was to his or the teams advantage - also disposal was a bit hit and miss

    Small sample so I'm sure the recruiters know a hell of a lot more - personally would think he is a better option than Serong

    Selling him a bit short there, Oli.

    Shows a heap more promise than Jayden.

    Bog ordinary except for his pace.

    Cant help but think of Adam Saad.

    Agree, will be a stretch if taken in top 10.

    Like Toby Greene or Dustbin Fletcher?.

    Has the pace and style we need.  Prefer Young, Kemp and Serong though. If Ash was there at 8 and all of the above were gone, Ash would be a good selection.

    Out currently having a coffee with some of the under 16's Murray Bushrangers development coaches to start planning for our up coming pre season.

    Just got told that Demon recruiting officials are up in the North East Border and Golburn Valley region to interview a couple of bushies boys.

    Lachlan Ash will most likely one of them and along side Ben Kelly and Cam Wild.

    Possibly there at our pick 8, so doesn't surprise me.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
