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.

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.

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

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
