It’s ‘rapt’ but is this just your guess based on contract extension + coming back in good shape or have you heard something more from someone at the club?

Noooo? Don’t say 😂 

 

Yeah but I quote through Siri and can’t be bothered correcting her when she’s so polite! 
 

Nope that’s form someone at the club albeit in a non coaching role but still I’m not gonna hand it to you rapt now am I.. 😜 

[censored], I just used the wrong rapt/wrapped again there didn’t I.. silly moi

    Not sure whether it was mentioned earlier in the thread but Cal’s Late Mail Phantom Draft will be released at some stage tonight.

    Does anyone think Xavier Lindsay or Murphy Reid is still a chance for us at pick 9? (Especially if Allan or Tauru don’t get through, which is a live possibility.) We are crying out for some good, accurate kicking (lace out) and some footy IQ. It really depends on where JT rates them as well. Could see Hynes come into play possibly (especially if the eagles are desperate for Allan and he makes it to our pick)

    In fairness, i think there is a very real chance that Tauru slides to our pick 9 as well, Bo Allen seems to be coming with a bullet. 

    Langford and Tauru would be a dream result.

    Cal said that Lindsay vs Allen is a 50/50 call we will make at pick 9 and he made a point of saying his prediction might well change with his late mail.

    It’s a tough call. On one hand Allan is a physical athletic beast, but could be a flight risk in the future. On the other hand Lindsay is probably the best kick in the draft with good endurance and pace, while his inside craft is said to be lacking. Could depend on who is selected at 5 as well.

    I’m sorry, misspellings a real trigger for me.

    Good news the club think that about him.

    There's a realistic scenario where Allan is gone to the Tigers at 7 and Lindsay to the Saints (or GWS via trade).

    5. Langford

    9. Tauru

    Gut feel is Giants are all over Lindsay if they grab one of the Saints picks. Closest available player to Windsor given they missed him last year.

    In that scenario that means Tauru is available at pick 9 👀

    ***LANGFORD & LINDSAY AS PER TWOMEY***

    https://www.afl.com.au/news/1256861/phantom-draft-late-mail

    I still think that's a great outcome. 

    Lindsay has good blend of going inside and out.

    Would be happy with this outcome also.

    I’ve long loved the Langford Lindsay double so I’d be thrilled with this 

    I still rate Allan too though, so either of them alongside Langford is a massive win

    Style wise, Lindsay makes more sense. Classy user off half back first up

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
