So now they have Wardlaw, Sheezel and Reid. Hell that’s going to get them a premiership surely?

+ LDU

Early premiership? They'd dominate the TAC Cup but it's going to be a fair long time until they're a premiership contender. Need a defence and another tall forward.

Reid to North, sheesh they’re going to be good 

So it pays off to be a basket case of a club for 4 years 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️.

I don't mind the idea of a draft lottery ala NBA.

Sad to see Reaid going to North… Or is he still gettable? Hawthorn did rebuild via multiple high picks in the one draft… Clarkson possibly do the same here by trading out Pick 1.

Anyway, Dees need to get hold of GC Pick 5.

Duursma (Pick 4) & GC Pick 5 (Best Available)

Trade for a Key Position Forward. Grundy to Port for Georgiadis…?

after all that

it was always a pipedream. let's take our picks to the draft and let JT work his magic.

Not if WC had finished last as they should 😭.

Pick 4 and 6 this year was gettable for us, then it would be a matter of how keen WC is to trade.

Worked for us.

That's the way the comp is designed, would never want to see a draft lottery, NBA is totally different to AFL with only 5 starting players.

Brayden George still to come with LDU, Simpkin, Thomas and Larkey up front.

Building a very good side.

I can see a few injuries before their game this week.

The bad news is we aren't getting Reid.

The good news is the league doesn't have to give in to North's woe is me sooking for priority picks. No more Ben McKay pick 2 compo. No more nonsense with Colonel Sanders.

We should get a fair crack at pick 4 or pick 5, which will then ease out at least one spot with Walter from the Suns but that's better than McKay compo and Sanders off the board.

Ziebell already got the retired/assaulted. LDU out last week. Shouldn't be hard to add a few more.

Hard to see FA compo or priority picks being ahead of the Eagles. But they will be gifted Sanders some how.

It’s the reason we won a flag.


Exactly why they should change the system, now that we’ve already been able to take advantage of it! Stop anyone else from doing the same!

We had a pair of number 1 picks and didn't win anything.

We had picks 2, 3 (which would shouldn't have got but we did deserve a top 10 pick for Chip) and traded up from pick 6 I believe for pick 4 to get Oliver and we win a flag.

If anything that franks the argument that a lottery that still sees the bottom 4 clubs prioritised but doesn't guarantee the top pick to anyone is a good idea.

I mean, assuming we didn't stuff their development we would've had a far better side in the early 10's with Dusty and Nic Nat than our pick 1's.

1. Reid - North

2. Walter - Gold Coast

3. Curtin - West Coast

 

Dorks would choose from Duursma, McKercher or Watson and we'd have a pick of the other 2 as I can see Freo's pick landing just after Dorks

2 very handy picks if we get the Suns pick 4/5. That’ll give an immediate boost  to our list. 
 

Need two athletes with speed and skill that’ll help with ball movement and transition in the coming years.

North and Freo will end in 18th and 15 th spot respectively , this improve our position of getting no.1 draft pick thou a long shot. What would we need to give up Pick 5, pick 15 and next years 1st rounder and a 2nd rounder for a Grundy deal.

Our alternative would be get Caddy and Read

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
