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.

Nudges rumours are more plausable than this thread.

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

My post isn't for us.My post is into the mix

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.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
