You're crackers, mate.  :D

I didn't see you had posted in a similar vein earlier. Definately have been reading it as KYE-NAN for the past 18 months, so it surprised me on the video when it was pronounced KEE-NAN. My neighbours boys name is that, and definitely Irish stock.

On the video posted by @dazzledavey36 on the previous page, the commentators are calling him Ky - nan.

I propose we just stick with "puppy" or "pup" to his mates.

Speaking demon bloodlines, I read there's a young Alfie Rowley playing for the Vic U12 team. Grandson of the great RDB.

Can we start lobbying for a new grandfather/grandson rule? After all, they adapted the rules years ago for RDB himself!

Somehow wasn't even nommed for the State combine despite i believe it being only a 3+ club noms to be invited. i think its 5 nominations for naitonal combine, 3 for state combine, maybe he'll be added post season as that does happen too but surely hes not another Emile-Brennan who is completely off our radar

Vaguely recall someone mentioning that F/S's don't necessarily go to the combines. Not sure on that though

Pretty sure Nick Daicos attended the draft combine?

not sure why we wouldn't want him to test so we can see how he compares and so we can see which clubs might be interested in an interview and maybe in nominating him so we can get our ducks in order

Saw a post that Kynan Brown won Vic Metros best and fairest award. Can anyone confirm?

Though he’s small, looks like we might be getting a decent talent with a late pick. He’s a very hard worker and hopefully can make it in the red and blue!

He was picked by the team’s coaches as Vic Metro’s best player in the National Championships.

Jeez that will send his price up surely.!!!

Would he be a suitable replacement for Jack in a few years? Ive never seen him play, but understand he is good in and under. If he has any of the mongrel his old man did, i think that would be super.

He’s small and skinny and kicks it about 30 metres. But his heart is huge. Tenacious.  Determination. Hard working. They are the words used to describe his style of play. I’d like to use a pick in 4th round or rookie pick if we can. Definitely like to see him given the chance. He’s got the heart to make it.

Wonder if the club thinks he has enough elite traits to make it?

The want and willingness is obviously there. If he wasn't Doggy's son would he even be considered?

Need to see more but so far I haven't been wowed. Wouldn't go higher than late 3rd at this stage.

Especially with those years he spent at San Quentin… maybe 5th rounder

Rookie pick if he’s lucky.

Winning the Vic Metro BnF would probably get him a chance on someones list but your right we may have taken the punt on 1/20 guys if he wasn't F/S

He reads like a Nibbler role succession plan.

    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
