Welcome to Demonland: Harvey Langford
KingDingAling replied to spirit of norm smith's topic in Trade, Draft & Free Agency
That’s what stood out in the highlights. This kid can take a grab - no two bites at the cherry, he brings it down with intent. What a fantastic pick up. -
Pick 5 and 9 are tremendous positions to be in this draft. I wouldn’t split 9. I think we’ll get quality at 5. We’ll get a top 3 slider at 5, and a top 5 slider at 9. So long as JT don’t reach for a Kolt, when a Darcy Wilson is right there for the taking. Hoping we’ve learnt the lesson. Smokey selections, save for the latter picks.

Welcome to Demonland: Tom Campbell
KingDingAling replied to titan_uranus's topic in Melbourne Demons
He will need to tap into such resilience if he’s to succeed at MFC. -
If Kozi does want to head to WA. I’d move him on for pick 10 and Freos 2025 1st. it’s unders for us. But if he does legitimately want to leave, he’s the type of player who could just not put in if he didn’t get his wish.

Coach must know where the bodies are buried.

Oliver will be at the club in 2025.
-
Hunter can afford to dip off early. Wealthy lad, don’t need to be out on a footy field.
-
Bont is the best I’ve seen since Ablett jr. I wouldn’t have Cripps anywhere near that discussion.
-
Some good former Dees on display. Jordon was massive.
-
I love St Kilda
-
Sparrow would blanket Daicos. Not sure we have anyone else who could. When Oliver and Trac are up and running, Daicos would find less opportunities. I’d nearly even run 3 dominant mids through next year and not tag Daicos again.

Laurie Extends for 2 More Years
KingDingAling replied to Heart Beats True's topic in Melbourne Demons
Same. He’ll be a player -
Best defence would be that Kozi never goes to ground and always keeps his feet. Ablett Jr was the only other player I’ve seen do this, but Kozi does it even more so.

Laurie Extends for 2 More Years
KingDingAling replied to Heart Beats True's topic in Melbourne Demons
Laurie is a good signing if he can be a depth mid. -
Freo is different. Freo make us look like witches hats. Pies we can lose humble usually. Freo make Simon look the way I see him.
-
Impressive in fast time. I just think Kozi is the best I’ve seen. Ablett Jr was, but [censored], I have never in my 40 years seen anything like Kozi Pickett.
-
That’s what I was thinking. Fiorini is too good for that level, as is Sexton.
-
Good riddance. We need to replenish our youth, and continue to inject some high level kids into our system. We got Windsor in last year, and he’s already a top 5 player for us.
-
I like Verrall as a back up.

I wouldn’t be trading 6/7 for a guy who will be 28 next year. We have improvement in Windsor and McVee, who next year, won’t be far off Houston’s level.

A hopeful look at 2025 (from a pessimist)
KingDingAling replied to FearTheBeard's topic in Melbourne Demons
Get rid of some big contracts -
More like it. We definitely need to look to the future. We won a flag. And now need to come back down to earth. Fantastic someone has made the call on Rivers into the midfield. Sam Mitchell tagged him off of the backline last year. Rivers was our top 3 last year, he’ll be our best this year. McVee and Windsor have both been top 5 players for us this year. I like your Mac Andrews call. Those are the type of players we need to chase.

Put Howes on JUH

We should win. GWS started too late. They’ll drop off this quarter. They needed to capitalize better that quarter. We really should be able to simply stream roll them in the last. Briggs also injured won’t help.
