Criteria:

Pick someone from Collingwood, Essendon. Richmond and Carlton. Big 4 clubs appeased and will keep audiences up.

Then better pick someone from the premiers & runners up or I’ll look stupid.

Round out the 10 with interstate sides for national click bait.

Done.

Dwayne hardly the best judge, he'd go off like a pork chop for Clayton Hinkley.

Derwaynne - I would watch Kozzie, Tracy, Clarrie, Max and Jacko before most of those.   (Maybe I am a bit biased) 🙄

It’s a team game - I like watching the half per centers  and centre square breakaways. 
Let Wines have his Brownlow.

He's allowed to have his opinion of who he likes watching. And, of course, you can all disagree and make your own lists.

Even though we've just won a premiership, MFCSS keeps popping out of the woodwork in all the usual manifestations.

Apparently being voted the best player in a GF and producing on the biggest stage of all isn't very watchable these days 😥.

Neither is winning the coaches votes for the season, getting 33 possessions, 10 tackles , shutting down Bont and a nail in the coffin goal in a GF. Voted the most selfless player by your teammates in a trend other clubs are trying to follow.

Or a giant who is All Australian captain, kicked a goal after the siren to see his team win minor premiers and kick 5 goals in a preliminary final from anywhere he got it within 60m.

If Stephen Milne still played, he'd be a shoe in.

Agree. (Except that it’s a shoo-in. As in ‘‘shoo… shoo… get in there’’)

Sorry, i couldn’t help myself. I see this all the time and it drives me crazy.

Now that’s an oddly specific, obscure reference. If I remember correctly, a certain loud Demonland member, who is still around but mostly posts on BigFooty, was a massive Clayton Hinkley fan. 

Edit: actually I might be thinking of Clayton Collard. So many of these Clayton’s Claytons from the mid 2000s that were supposed to be good but weren’t. Thanks goodness we got the real one.

My top 10 most watchable:

1. Kozzy Pickett - magic happens!

2. Isaac Heeney - if he's injury free he'll be nearly the best player in the comp.

3. Liam Ryan - pace, leap, execution!

4. Charlie Cameron - the next Betts.

5. Harry McKay - reckon he's in for a 70 plus season.

6. Christian Petracca - who wouldn't want to see more of Norm?

7. Dustin Martin - legend of the game.

8. Shai Bolton - always exciting. Can mess it up but won't die wondering.

9. Toby Greene - mainly just enjoy watching him self-destruct.

10. Scott Pendlebury - my favourite non-demon

You would rather watch Pendlebury then Oliver???

As Darth Vader would say..... "I find your lack of faith dusturbing"!

Second place Tim Ruffles, the least popular AFL player named after a chip.

Bold statement, given the number of Smiths that have played the game.

There was also a Pringle, so you've got plenty of variety to choose from.

My list (excluding Melb players due to bias:- koz, Trac, Oliver, Jacko, Gawn, Fritsch, Salem would all feature)

 

1.  Bont              (Class & match winner)

2.  Liam Ryan    (Excitement, weekly hangers)

3.  Dusty             (Don’t argue)

4.  Nic Nat          (Freakish ruck-taps)

5.  Josh Kelly      (Skill + ability to hit a target)

6.  Buddy       (The strut, and bombs from 60m) 

7.  C. Cameron   (Speed, stupid celebrations) 

8.  Robbie Gray    (Class/skill/match-winner)

9.   Danger       (Explosiveness)

10. Greene      (Mad, head explosions) 

 

 

Agrre with nearly all of these, except for Danger (not exciting to see a bloke trying to kick it to himself) & Greene ( I want to watch footy not a sideshow, however I will admit he can play. What about Touk Miller ?

Dwayne Russell has two brains.

Ones lost and the ones out looking for it.

Good call:-  I forgot about Touk. Happy to sub him in for Danger. 

agree re Greene:-  the commentators obsession with him can be hard to watch also. Maybe sub old mate Jesse Hogan in for Greene?

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
