Nice to see Harry Petty get some recognition by the broader AFL community, i know most Melbourne supporters rate him, but i'm not sure the rest of the comp quite realises how good he is/can be. 

I'd argue he's our best young key position prospect by some distance.

    42 named players = almost 2.5 per team

    We got 4... good result

    Swans have 6

    Bowey and Rivers could be up there as well. Expect both to have good careers for us. 

    Not surprised the Swans have 6. Swans and Freo have the best young talent and will be competitors for years to come. Amazing that Andrew Brayshaw and Aaron Naughton are still both only 22!

    Is this a publicly voted team? The AFL story says, "A whopping 97 per cent of fans had Collingwood first-year sensation Nick Daicos in their side, with Brayshaw and Geelong key back Sam De Koning named in 95 per cent of teams." 

    It doesn't actually say that the team was selected by "fans", but the inference is there.

    F** me so it is a popularity contest? Why bother doing it then!

    Seems the 40 man squad is chosen by a panel and then its by social media/public voting, can't complain about Petty being unlucky when i didn't vote aha

    Petty unlucky, but McCartin and De Koning were the right choices for the main key defenders and the other backs who got picked ahead of him in Daicos, Coleman, Blakey, Clark, Young and Quaynor are all very good players. Not sure who I’d leave out for Petty of that group. It’s already 1 too many defenders to begin with. I’d take out Clark or Young and still be at the standard 7 defenders.

    This team doesn’t have 3rd talls at either end or really a true number 1 ruck, which shows you how rare good talls under 22 are to begin with.

    Petty may have flown under the radar of your average random footy fan, but I bet opposition coaches rate him.

    He has been our most consistent key back this year for mine.

    I’m looking for the joke in that @Demonstone, but I can’t find it.

    No joke intended FD.  Petty is relatively unrecognised by the football public at this stage but that is changing.

    On the other hand, opposition clubs would be well aware of his talent.

    McCartin ahead of Petty?

    Madness!

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
