It doesn't eventually, but for 20/22 year old key position players it does IMO (unless they're complete duds).

Where would Jackson go if he was in the draft this year? How about Naughton? Guarantee you 99% of people (outside of those on Demonland who have now turned on him and are desperate for a key forward) would have Jackson going first out of the two.

Yes - but that is still a reflection of what his perceived worth is now. Not what was initially paid for him.

    Jackson - Pick 3, Rising Star winner, Premiership player, 20 years old.

    Naughton - Pick 9, 22 years old.

    I get it, I really want a key forward too and obviously people have 'turned' somewhat on Jackson on Demonland, but you guys are kidding yourselves if you think their worth on the market is the same.

    Jackson worth higher then Naughton?

    Sheesh.. I would say Naughton is every bit worth more then Jackson who realistically hasn't achieved the same on field output what Naughton has.

    Naughton Kicked 47.40 as a 21 year old playing as their main full forward in a grand final year. 

    This year alone as a 22 year old Naughton kicked 51 goals whereas Jackson was poor.

    His natural trajectory as a key forward is certainly sky rocketing towards being a 60-70 goal a year over the next few years. That alone is worth more then Jackson

    The big talented key forwards is what teams will pay more their worth over a ruckman.

    Guys like Naughton, Ben King, Max King and Harry McKay are gold nuggets that teams would happily cough up for a couple of first rounders as a starting point.

    Rising Star, Premiership player.

    Who would go first if they were being drafted this year?

    Rate Naughton very highly, but we're talking market worth here.

    I'll leave it at that, don't wanna back over it too many times. Understand if others have a differing opinion on Demonland.

    Out of interest, does chook have good mail on this sort of stuff? 

    I mean, I'm sure we'd have interest and have reached out to a number of forwards' managers etc. 

    Why has this particular one grown legs on Demonland when not a word has been said in the media?

    Jason Johannison would go first. Norm Smith, Premiership player

    Do you really think clubs add a premium based on those? Lewis Taylor won a Rising Star. Jacob Townsend was an impactful player in a Premiership side. Club BnF finishes would hold more weight.

    It's just an indication of the players worth on the market.

    Let's not take this to silly places now with comparisons based on awards and premierships, we all recognize there's more to it than that alone right?

    Anyways, we're not getting Naughton either way. I'm tapping out as promised.

    It’s grown legs because of wishful thinking. 

    we’ve lost Jackson and will most likely have to pay overs and trade a first rounder for Grundy and are desperate for a forward. Getting Naughton in many minds softens those blows. 

    never mind that there is no noise whatsoever about Naughton anywhere in the media. 

    his face would be plastered on every trade wrap and whispers story like Jackson & Grundy. there is nadda about him. 

    Mods should close this thread. It ain’t happening.

    Naughton is the best Under 23 Key forward in the game(better than both Kings),Bevo is a bit of a nutcase but there's no way he's leaving the Kennel.

     

    Naughton would burn out in 1 season putting up with Goodwin's idiotic,repetitive Long Bombs all day!!!

     

    Steven May kicks in to the same left flank all day,mids bomb the ball to the same spot all day.

     

    Hmmm,i wonder why we went 6-8!!!

    Naughton is a contracted FF who is 22. If we can give whatever we get for LJ to the Dogs for Naughton - we would do that in a heartbeat.

    Firstly he is contracted and secondly he is exactly what we need right now.

    Probably because the Trade Whisperer, ET, raised it. So it must be a done deal.

    One difference LJ was a positive Naughton a negative as he didn't ever threaten to score goals ( too far away from FF) like HD did early doors in replay at G in Round1.  Stevie May got him agsin with Tmacs help.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
