We’ve done ok over the journey. 

 

Bit of an indictment on Gold Coast's recruiting. 12 years of concessions, high draft picks and zone access and all they can produce over the journey are 21 nominees

    Fitzroy are on this list so it goes back to at least 1995. if you listed it as average no of Rising Stars per year, Gold Coast and GWS would be at the top.

    Edited by Big Col
    made clear who "they" were by changing it to "Gold Coast"

    McVee and JVR (if we ever play him) would be our most likely in 2023? I'd be disappointed if we went through another year w/o a single nomination because they're one of the indicators of future success.

    It’s fine JVR will debut this week and kick 10 and go on to win the rising star, the Coleman and a flag.

    Probably win the brownlow as well if he does that

    And you'd have to have a sneaky 20 on him for the Norm following that year 😁

    2019: Jackson, Pickett, Rivers ✅✅✅

    2020 Bowey✅ Laurie❔Rosman❌

    2021:
    JVR - probably debuts this week.
    Howes - has the talent to put a run of good form together. 
    Woey - showed a bit in preseason 
    McVee - a genuine nomination chance
    AMW - debut not entirely out of the question.

    Without a lot of good picks I like this draft class. It might be 0 from 5 in rising star noms any time soon but all could be part of the side from next year or the year after.

    2022: 4 developmental talls and Sestan

    We only took the 3 picks in 19 and 20 as list sizes shrunk, with no rookies. Then we’ve had both a good team and a pretty young team for a contender over the last 2 years. It’s time for Laurie and the second year kids to start pushing for games and they are.

    Drafting a pair of key forwards was an investment in the future more than present too.

    Not fussed, we produced a rising star award winner 2 years ago so must have been doing something right.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?
