He seems to be completely up his own bum, but I'd give anything to have him in our side. What an absolute weapon.

Made supercoach team look good last week too.

Buddy was in the same draft as Newton. He's young and only getting better. Quit the sour grapes.

Franklin brings supporters through the gates. The only thing that brings me through the gates is the love of my team. Not one Demon player comes close to dragging me along.

Absolutely right.

How many goals did Franklin kick in his first final?

And how many did J Brown kick in his first final?

Reckon he might go close to Brown in his career, only lacks the intimidation.

But yes, he's a [censored] and very hard to watch against your own team.

But I'd like a [censored] with such talent on my team.

Remember when Bruce kicks a goal, I know I know it's been a while, but his gangly, puppet on a string, knees hitting his chin celebration is also hard to watch.

Buddy is the most exciting player in the game, and an unstoppable force at times. His performance against Adelaide in last year's finals should dispel doubts about his ability to rise to the occasion. I don't follow the Dees because I think they are all super blokes, nor do I expect many footballers to be great human beings. The general penchant for boganity and selfishness amongst the playing fraternity isn't new. If we had 22 'tossers' who played like Buddy, I'd take it.

He is a frontrunner

Kicks bags against dud teams

Disappeared vs the Kangaroos in last years Semifinal. Was touched up by Josh Gibson

Franklin is a poor mans Allen Jakovich

Just like his game in the 1st final against Adelaide eh !

Every time we get one, guess what? we [censored] trade them. Farmer, Johnstone, Thompson, Woewodin. Iam sick of this s**t

Jonathan Brown shits on him from a great height

i agree, he's a better player now, the best forward in the comp...

but buddy will continue to get better, and he's much younger than J.Brown who turns 27 this year, buddy is only 21...

Doesnt matter how good Franklin becomes, he will never be as good as Jonathan Brown

Two thing will always set them apart - toughness and leadership

Id give my left nut to have him in our colours.

I'd love to see him at the Dees, in fact, I'd be prepared give your right nut as well Pipefitter. I'm just a bit attached to my own.

Franklin love's himself to death, he's the best young talent in the AFL and he knows it. Atleast he doesn't feel sorry for himself, unlike the majority of our list.

Arrogance comes from extreme confidence and huge self-belief. Something none of our players come within light-years of.

Why does the media latch onto the biggest [censored] of all time? The Hawthorn supporters around me were having an orgasm every time he outmarked our 'superstar' Nathan Carroll. They were groaning 'oh! Buddy, Buddy, Buddy!' I felt like vomitting. The guy has no humility and plays only for himself.

Maybe I'm jealous? Nope! He's a [censored]!!!

hes a champion... simple! the supporters might be tossers but what makes you so sure he is?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
