Good call. He is better than most of the Top picks imo in the thin-highly compromised draft next year. That’s why I like the swap with Kangas

I'm convinced this has been our plan the whole time and that we will take Kemp at 8. We traded next years first for him but he wont play in 2020. He will be effectively our first pick in the 2020 draft. Really good trading IMO, we get a top 5 talent next year regardless of our finishing place in 2020.

That’s if he is there at 8 and if he is the one we want.

My theory is that the only reason with bought pick 8 was for Kemp.  Id say we know he will be there at 8.

If you are referring to me I would ask that as adults we be civil towards each other.

I was a 40 year Demon member and have now moved to the USA with my American wife so I would respectfully ask that you do not make any snide remarks.

We are all here for one reason and that is to discuss the MFC and what it means to each of us.

Thankyou and I trust you appreciate my polite response. Like you I do not appreciate snide remarks.

You'd reckon they'd attempt to trade in pick 12 (one pick before the dogs) as opposed to throwing the extra picks in to secure 8 from Norf if Weightman is the target. But what do I know!!

Some talk Carlton want a small forward as well, seeing as they missed Papley. Are also apparently in the frame for Jackson (ruck) and Kemp, as are we

Not to digress too much further, but I always thought Stuie and Rangey were one and the same? FWIW, I never minded either of them.

Kemp wont make it to pick 8

If GWS are forced to match a bid for Green, it only leaves Adelaide, Sydney and Fremantle to bid on Kemp. Adelaide might prefer one of the SA boys and Freo might look at Ash or Stevens after losing Langdon and Hill. Sydney might look at Sarong if the Crows don’t take him with the plan to replace Papley next year?

You could be right but I concur with the idea that it's quite possible Kemp won't be there at our next pick. I'd prefer Kemp over Young, but it'll be interesting to see what we do with pick 3.

And we have another month to keep guessing. ?

I don’t know enough about the kids to pick, only what I’ve read, but I do like the idea of having an elite kick coming out of the back half to set up attacks though. I actually think Kemp will slip through to our pick 8, just don’t know if we’ll pick him. ??‍♂️?

We can only hope. Makes it more likely Stephens will be left on the board.

I may be in the minority but I kinda hope we take Stephens over Kemp (as unlikely it is we'd get the choice between the two at pick 8 )I'm surprised he's not getting more love, he seems like a perfect fit

3-Green. Giants (nomination by Dees)

4- Young. Dees 

5- Stephens. Crows 
6- Ash.  Freo 

7- Serong. Swans

8- Kemp.  Dees 

that’s a great double for the Dees

Crows could be interested in Serong as an Eddie replacement? 

I don’t know if Swans would pass Kemp, I get the logic of choosing Serong to replace Papley if he plans leave though.

I don't think Flanders would slide outside of the top 8.

There's talk of freo picking Jackson with 7 to get him ahead of Carlton at 9

    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
