Its a little confusing. 3 rookies were delisted and i rookie Jordan upgraded to the primary list. Does that mean 4 rookie s[pots available???

5 players off the Primary list and 3 drafted on, Jordan upgraded and Dunstan recruited.

Bradke delisted as Cat B.

I cant keep up with it all either. There are certain rules around how many you can have on your primary list dictates how many rookies you can have. 

It used to be easy as the rookie list was separate on the Demons official website. I got this from footywire.

Rookies - Kade Chandler, Majak Daw, Deakyn Smith, Daniel Turner.

No idea if that is right... where is Kye Declase?

    We have taken Judd McVee

    183cm 68kg.

    East Fremantle prospect Judd McVee is a smooth-moving defender with clean handling and skills, traits which may bode for more midfield minutes in the future.

    (other reports ive read say he is a goal kicker. so no idea bout his position yet)

    Judd McVee

    East Fremantle, WAFL / Geraldton FC
    State: Western Australia
    Height: 183cm
    Weight: 72kg
    Date of Birth: 07/08/03

    Medium midfielder who can also play across half-back and use his elite kicking skills to set up the play. All-Australian at Under-16s level in 2019, he has a high footy IQ and is very creative with his vision and clean hands. Has similar traits to Essendon star Darcy Parish in the way he hunts the footy around stoppages and was a good performer at Under-18s level in the WAFL, averaging 14.9 disposals in 12 matches. Represented Western Australia at Under-19s level in two matches this year as he continued his development.

    A sensible and logical choice in drafting a small defender given we delisted Jetta, Lockhart and Hore and were a little light on in that area as I previously mentioned earlier in this thread. McVee looks to be from the same club as Woewodin, so our scouts must of liked what they saw from him while focusing on Woey Jnr.

    Looked at his WAFL profile and saw he's listed at 195cm tall. bit short for a ruck?

    Not sure Sprigg has stopped growing and could be wrong but think he’ll be around the 200+ range now.  Watched him playing for Wesley College, shot up a fair bit in the last 12/18 months. Was the dominant ruckman in PSA this season, with good skills for a big man. Has nice soft hands at the tap and a nice bit of mongrel.

    Having said all that I believe he may be being highly sought after the WACA and cricket Australia as a fast bowler

    Bad luck for Lockhart, was mentioned in the paper GWS might pick him up

    No Senior or A Rookie spots left.

    For those above not too sure of the numbers, this thread (pinned at the top of he main forum) might help.

    Hopefully they have a list spot and will let him train over summer. Fingers crossed.

    because we had 2 MSD selections to replace LTIs we had to shed 2 extra players off our rookie list in total, so in Nietschke and declase we did that and that had us level with where we were at pre season last year then the jordon upgrade gave us the spot to take Mcvee today. AMW replaces bradtke but we could've kept him on if we'd wanted to as we can have 2B rookies regardless of the rest of our lists make up and we only have 1

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
