Great watch. One thing that stood out for me was how good it is for both of them to have mate/teammate to share the journey with. Makes thing a lot easier when it feels like there’s two of ye in it. 
Should make the transition to AFL that bit easier. Best of luck to both.

    Also enjoyed it.

    The stuff around the draft is about the most interesting stuff a club can put out I reckon.

    Loved after the 2019 draft when the club put out the behind the scenes video of conversations and deliberations the footy department had had before drafting Jackson, Pickett and Rivers, and also on the two draft nights, and wish they'd do it every year.

    I'd find that much more interesting than what was in the video this week (apologies to those who enjoyed it).

    Agree. I’d love to see that again every year

    They could do a "Draft Rewind" with similar content. So, 2025, release some video of such discussions from 2020 or 2015 (whatever's available). Super interesting and even more so with a bit of hindsight - and more likely to include interesting aspects of that content if some time has passed.

    This would be an amazing idea - obviously with the proviso that the draftees still at our club are OK with any frank discussion of them included in the content!

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.

    • PREGAME: Geelong

      After a one-year reprieve, the Demons return down the freeway to Kardinia Park — the site of both one of our greatest triumphs and one of our darkest days — as they face the Cats under Friday night lights. This one could get ugly. Who comes in, and who comes out?
