I don’t think Norf need a KPF but could understand them taking him. They need more half backs and outside midfielders. They already have Larkey and Zurhar which are good forwards. I think they will also need a ruck as Coleman Jones is a bit meh. 

Yeah probably a reach at pick 1.

Highlights from the last Championship game for those that are interested in the key forward. If I'm North Melbourne I'm not passing him up considering the amount of mids they've invested in recently.

From that footage he reminds me of John Butcher. We were very keen to have him alongside Jack Watts.

Port nabbed him and we know how that went down

Absolutely… if I’m the Kangas, Cadman and Larkey for a very dangerous forward combo alongside a McKay-Curnow structure.  Kangas have plenty of extra mids and can accumulate more even if JHF moves back to SA.  Cadman would be my first choice in the draft (excluding Ashcroft of course). 
 

Aaron Cadman would be a fantastic draft pick for the Demons.

We desperately need another young gun tall forward to team up with Jacob van Rooyen.

Aaron Cadman's highlights video is quite impressive too.

He will go top 5 in the draft though.

I personally think Matthew Jefferson is the next best option if the Demons miss out on Aaron Cadman.

Hmmmm. Yes clearly Cadman is the best key forward and should go pick 2.    I actually would rank Gruzewski and even Phillipou (as a tall CHF/mid/forward prototype) as higher than Jefferson.

Is there any footage on Gruzewski? Can't find anything

Would love to land this guy

He moves a lot like a young Jarryd Roughead to me, maybe with some shades of a slightly shorter Daniher or Harry McKay when it gets a bit erratic.

Good size, good athlete, knows how to get involved up the ground and in space. 

I'm not convinced I'd pull the trigger as high as pick 2 but I reckon if North got the 2 picks at the top they'd be very keen to shore up their spine.


Looks like he's likely to go #2 behind Ashcroft.   Fox Footy that GWS are very keen to get North to split their first for pick 3 and a later first rounder so they can grab him.  I think North need him as well and might have second thoughts about splitting their pick particularly if they can get pick 2 from West Coast via Port for JHF.

Seems like our recruiters love Cadman, this account is always spot on.

He's getting picked off by Norf or BWS forget about it.

Operation get pick 1 needs to be in full swing IMO, if James Harmes wants midfield time, happy to move him and a couple of first rounders to get that pick in the door. 

Cadman is EXACTLY what we need

Cadman will be at North or GWS, end of story.


Even if he miraculously lasted to our pick, he’s not going to help our cause in 2023. Even 2024 might be placing too much of a burden on him.

We are ready to go again, we need a KPF who is ready to go now.

The trouble with that is that it’s unlikely to net pick 1 and you risk disrupting the culture by pushing blokes unwillingly out the door ( would you go to North if you were Harmes?)

I really like Phillipou 

 

If we want Cadman we are going to have to pay overs to get to pick 2 

If Cadman is a great player would probably take 4 years plus till we see him dominating consistently 

we are in our window now, either use all draft picks on a big free agent or draft players that can play afl straight away

Is he a key forward or a tall mid who can occasionally play up forward?

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
