Jackson, Robertson, Sharp

I hope Robertson will be there at pick 10. But this unlikely. I hope you are right. Fingers crossed 

 

Pick 3 Jackson.

Pick 10 Weightman

Pick 28 Cooper Stephens


3 Green

10 Weightman

28 Pickett

Pick swap with Geelong.

Pick 14 - Weightman

Pick 17 - Pickett

 

I basically agree with this prediction although think it will be Jackson at 3.

Do I get half a poiint if we bid on him but GWS take him?

Just have this feeling GWS will be rapt to get Jackson, and MFC rate Green VERY highly.

What’s with the small forward obsession when we already have 4 plus blokes under 180 cm on the list who potentially should fill the role?

Because we need actual talent

Who are  the 4 blokes? Any of them any good?   Doubt it, as we have the worst small forward stocks in the comp

Yes it’s all fun and our desire for the Dees to get some quality youngsters.  Yet the “trolls”’ on other posts love to shoot others down and denigrate.  
 

I’ve always been in the Hayden Young at 3 and Brodie Kemp at pick 8 camp. Young for elite ball use which would be a milestone at the Demons and Kemp because of superstar potential with strength and pace. 

I would like to see Tom Green called at 3 and make Giants match it.  It appears unlikely so Giants will end up with two top 5 players   

Obviously the popular view seems MFC picks as

Jackson at 3 , for a 10 year outlook as Gawn probably has the #1 ruck role for 5-6 more years       He didn’t play forward at the championships but JT says he can be a key forward , yet very raw footy skills. athleticism is his strength. 

Weightman at 10.  Lively forward pocket.  Good skills but I think they’d be better options available at this pick like Kemp or Ash or Serong. 


Pick 28 is a lottery to see who’s available.  Like to see either KOZZZY Pickett or ELIJJJJAH Taylor for their excitement. Small indigenous forwards are exciting. Like Jeremy Sharp as the running back or wingman or even a punt on Darcy Cassar.  Both Sharp and Cassar are classy runners with good pace and that much required skill.
 

Wait and see now.

Because none of them have proved their more than decent depth yet, because we've had a game plan that relied on frenzied delivery and key forwards 'bringing the ball to ground', and because we just delisted our most dangerous small forward who also lead our average goal kicking for 2019.

I’d be happy either way. Prefer if we nabbed Green though like you said.

Spargo - 2nd round pick - was a midfielder as a junior and his skillset - fitness, ball winner, get contest to contest, make smart decisions is that of a half forward flanker

Bedford - 4th round pick - flashes defensive and crumbing ability but is also a long way from AFL and more of a project

Chandler - rookie - junior midfielder with some forward craft but more of a 2nd best small. The Puopolo to a Rioli.

Lockhart - rookie - back flanker/mid/half forward flanker - ball winning and ball use across the flanks is more his go than dangerous inside 50 pressure and crumbing. Training with the defenders.

Not sure it should be pick 10 but we have to draft a specialist crumber and pressure player at some stage.


Assuming no live pick trades:

3 - Jackson

10 - Serong

28 - Taylor

3 Jackson

10 Dylan Stephens

28 Dylan Williams

 

 

 

Interesting option in Dylan Williams.  Great 2018 as a goalkicking half forward dominant as an underaged. Injury ruined 2019 but is very very good player if his body can get 100%.

Well then they should have been delisted, yes? But no we still believe they can contribute in some way while we intend to burn first rounder picks on small forward potential. 


3. Green/Jackson

11/12. (allowing for Green/Henry bid) Serong/Kemp

28. Sharp/Taylor/Rivers

3. Anderson.

10. Kemp.

28. Gould.

Pickett

(Weightman / Pickett almost interchangeable)

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
