    Ones to watch are Kreuzer, Cotchin, Grimes, Veszpremi, Bongetti and Daniher. Probably a few others as well.

    would love to get daniher, 195 cm defender, would work very nicely in tandem with frawley

    The obvious question here is, what's the relation?

    Son of Anthony who played 100 games with both Sydney and Essendon making him available under the father/son rule for both teams. Looks like one of them will probably take him.

    Only one of them will take him if they are prepared to bid high enough.

    Cotchin is the kid i hope we'll take. Fast, classy and can get the ball himself, he would compliment McLean and Jones very, very well.

    Are you involved in recruitment Jarka?

    No, my knowledge is miniscule compared to some other guys around. I know some junior coaches of local teams who have got a couple of kids trying to break into a couple of the u/18 teams (eastern) so I go and watch them from time to time, but not as often as I'd like. My views are from seeing them play, but mostly info passed on by these guys.

    If you go to the trading board on bigfooty there are some excellent posters who see far more games than myself, eg Weaver and Footyman. Those guys know much more than I do.

    There's an interesting story about the Vic Metro team in the local paper - Metro coach is spoilt for choice

    According to Victorian Metro coach David Dickson the quality of the first trial match played by the squad was "as good as he had seen since he began coaching in 1997."

    I'm just waiting for the first Phantom Draft to come out - someone's usually mad enough to try their hand at one by this time.

    Not a bad effort either.

    Does anyone have much info on Jacob Graham and Daniel Mckerracher? I played junior footy with them and heard they were playing well for the jets, any chance of being drafted?

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
