I have way more concerns about replacing Ben Brown and Tmac than worrying about May's eventual replacement. 

All of Tmac, Brown and Weid have a history of injuries which could effect the next couple of seasons. 

If we go for JVR, I hope he is developed as a fwd.

Yep, we have Thommo as well who showed he plays very well as a key back. With may, lever, petty, Thommo and Turner, we are stocked for current and project backs.

Need a backup for TMac and BB


Best available tall. Makes sense and Taylor is true to his word picking for needs.

Great get for this club.

Big physical 195cm 88kg key forward who has also played down back. Had some insane numbers in the back end of the year in the colts level as a noted goal kicker.

Welcome Jacob.

34 goals in 9 games, apparently. But not many at WAFL level.

 

Ecstatic with this selection. It's what I hoped would happen. Kid has all the potential in the world. Welcome to the mighty Dees Jacob! 😈

Dunno why but I have a feeling we weren't expecting him to be available @ 19

Welcome Jacob.

I've just had a look at his highlights reel and am now an absolute expert on him. I thought he moved a bit like Tom Lynch with his forward play.

Interested to see how JVR performed at the combine.  He had a great year and definitely in the mix for our “pick 17”. 

Welcome aboard JVR.  We can give him the time to develop without rushing him in.

Looks a great prospect. Hopefully another JT special (although i wish fox hadn't compare him to Josh Bruce)

Feels strange to draft a tall in the first round who seems low ceiling but high floor.

Obviously nothing is guaranteed but with a few years development he could then pitch in for 150 or so games at either end and help maximise our premiership window through the early stage of that.

Ticks a lot of the boxes and should settle in well.

I can imagine him in a year or two, under our coaching team with good physical conditioning, fitter, tougher, muscled, confident, even more capable from more intense match-play with Casey - a big win for Dees' fans. JT, you've done it again! Team balance in the near future is the priority.

Will be a good surfing partner for Luke Jackson!

Good pick up. We needed a tall for depth and he is quality at either end. Higher probability pick being from WA where much more footy has been played than the Eastern States. So we had a good look.  

Wonder whether we try to trade up tomorow? Some quality apparently still on the board.

I genuinely dislike Josh Bruce but he had a great year this year. I actually like that fox picked a semi reasonable comparison for once! If he gives us 2021 Josh Bruce we’d be delighted 

I don't study draft prospects outside Demonland, but I've been keen on JVR ever since the possibility of his selection was mooted here.  Seems like a great fit for our list as it currently stands.  Welcome JVR, you've just joined the very best AFL club in the land!

Totally agree. It’s Best Available at pick 17. No matter who that is (JVR, Chesser, Sinn, Sonsie, Wilmot or whoever) then we trust in JT.  JT is a legend and is one of the key men behind our premiership.  I’d like to see another youngster with skill and pace added to the midfielder but just that’s me. JVR would also be a handy young key position player to develop with time on our side. 

Back in JT.  He knows we will need to develop another young tall, probably in the current Tmac role.  Hope we get to hear from the great man on the selection.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
