Would love this outcome, also wouldn't mind if Carroll was substituted in for one of the latter two.

Righto, I'll have a go since there are prizes on offer -

Caleb Poulter, Jack Carroll, Kaine Baldwin,  pass

Ford and Winder now gone. Thought we might have stole one with our last pick.

Patience my friend. They will all come good putting pressure on  the older guys.

2 out of 3.  Mccrae was a bit of a pipe dream, and had no idea about our late bolter.  Laurie and Bowie are excellent selections (although I thought they would have been selected differently, with Laurie earlier and Bowie sliding to our later pick - but What do I know??).  Happy with what we have achieved over the trade and draft period.  Our result in 2021 will be based on our current list stepping up more than a new kid doing a Rowell for us, so these kids have time.  Like the focus on footy smarts and kicking skills, can only make us better.

I can't believe that 14 hours after Old Dee posted this no-one has responded with the obvious rejoinder:

Well done to both these  posters on getting 2 out of the 3 selections correct.

But there can only be ONE WINNER of the  @WERRIDEEsigned and framed Best 22 plaque (now includes bonus best 22 for Casey, bringing the grand total to a best 44)

The winner is buck_nekkid

Like deebug he chose 2 of the 3 draftees correctly, but got the Laurie pick spot on for our second selection

deebug a very worthy Runner up

Just for you I have change the 44 because Goodwin has it in his mind that McDonald is a forward. So no backline action for him.

Bowey straight into the team in the wing!! That’s “Optimistic or misti-optic” as Dennis Cometti would say !!!  
I think he will have a development year and more likely Laurie will get a game in the seniors mid-late in 2021. But given the glaring gap in our team for a quality wingman opposite Langdon, you might be right.  

@WERRIDEE, i like that you took a few big risks at selection for the nekkid memorial team.  Here’s my ‘nearest to the pin’ version:

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
