That’s it - the Dragons win their 4th flag, this time coming from 8th place on the ladder.

Sandringham Dragons 14.10.94 to Dandenong Stingrays 7.9.51.

Will Ashcroft named best on ground in the Grand Final with 39 disposals.

I haven't watched this game yet but I've liked what I've seen of Oli Hotton this year, particularly through the champs.

Hotton was very good again tonight. Should go in that 10-20 range, would love him at the Dees.

How's Finn E-B going? I see he had 11 touches to half time. 

He probably finished in their best players but that’s not saying anything. Probably not quite top 40 so if the Dees want to pick him, they’ll get the opportunity.

It’s not inconceivable that the Dragons are going to produce three top 10 picks in Ashcroft, Sheezel and McKenzie with two others, Clarke and Hotton in line for the top 20. A big feather in the cap of the South Metro Junior Football League where they played before joining the Dragons and which also produced George Wardlaw who was with the Oakleigh Chargers and could also figure in top two to five in the draft.

Dragons take the sting out of ‘Rays in epic Grand Final performance

Finn finished with 17 touches for the night. Not a bad effort in a team that was completely crushed but I agree, it’s not likely on that performance that he would be picked up in the top 40 in this draft where there are a number of medium/small players available for selection.

Ashcroft is ️ Will play round 1 2023- a huge boost for Lions alongside Jaspa Fletcher 

Sheezel and Mckenzie top 10 for sure. Both would be great in red and blue. 

Agree Oli Hotton is a quality youngster, would be a good pickup for the Dees if we stay with pick 14-15 from the LJ trade. 

Charlie Clarke is that fast small forward with footy smarts. His pace alone brings him attention. 

Jaxon Binns again showed his Rory Sloane like quality.  He runs and runs and links up and if we’d like another midfield running machine at the Dees, he’d have to be considered. 

Finn Emile-Brennan could end up our academy pick either as a late pick or a rookie which would be a win. His ball use is excellent.

    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
