  1. Corey Wagner, Josh wagner? or my favourite the pencil Jakey spence in the 42
  2. ill put it in here too from the draft centrals first power rankings of the season #21 Mac Andrew (MEL NGA) Dandenong Stingrays/Vic Country | Ruck/Tall Utility 12/04/2003 | 200cm | 70kg Snapshot: A raw tall prospect who has proven his worth in each post, Andrew’s vertical leap and fast-developing craft really catch the eye. Another key position type who has rocketed up draft boards with a promising start to the year, Andrew will have Melbourne recruiters a little nervous with his performances to date. He sits just outside our current top 20 but has that kind of potential, with raw athleticism and bucketloads of upside given his ever-improving ability to be utilised at either end of the ground, or in the ruck. While he has proven his versatility, the Demons Next Generation Academy (NGA) talent looks most comfortable in the ruck, where his leap and clean follow-up work stands out. Season so far: Eyes quickly turned to Andrew after he collected 22 disposals, three marks and 11 hitouts on his NAB League debut, before going on to prove it was no fluke by impressing across another three outings. He found himself spending more time forward against the Sandringham Dragons in Round 4 and kicked a goal, but has some development left in his decision making and disposal by foot at times. He boasts clean hands and was better aerially than his averages of three marks and 14.5 hitouts suggest. The same could be said about his game for the AFL Academy, where Andrew was tried up either end before excelling in the ruck during term four, throwing his 200cm frame into each centre bounce with a phenomenal vertical leap
  3. Bit of a blurb from the Draft Central draft power rankings 1st edition #21 Mac Andrew (MEL NGA) Dandenong Stingrays/Vic Country | Ruck/Tall Utility 12/04/2003 | 200cm | 70kg Snapshot: A raw tall prospect who has proven his worth in each post, Andrew’s vertical leap and fast-developing craft really catch the eye.

  4. numbers up!
  5. numbers up!
  6. hunt also isn't really defending. the goals weren't necessarily on hunt but hes contributing the least back there so if we want to tighten up that spot something has to give and u can't really make a case for the other 6. in lockhart you'd be freeing hibbo up to do more rebounding rather than being deepest. bowey should have license to attack as thats his strength and i don't doubt he'd have the same if not more impact on our offence as hunt is currently having
  7. no better time to do it, not a hostile crowd in the harbour city and the pies r rolling out their u21s themselves
  8. ones averaging 20+ and ones averaging 11ish over the last month of games played u tell me who should get to whose level. bowey won't know how to compete at afl level if he never gets to play there. and if u are so against the bowey call i'd rather lockhart played than hunt, zac bailey another 4g from a small forward tonight
  9. OUT: Weideman, Hunt, Melksham IN: BBrown, Bowey, Langdon
  10. Turner replied to DeeSpencer's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    only problem with dropping him is it drives his price down if thats the way we look at EOS but i haven't given up yet LT

    6. petracca 5. oliver 4. mcdonald 3. pickett 2. harmes 1. may
  12. it has to be smallest available imo so 40 declase and 42 turner, i wear 49 so wouldn't mind the older bro rocking my number in honour of me
  13. should be D.Turner not K on the rookie list xx
  14. so the question is are Declase and Turner 6month or 18month deals
  15. initially i agreed with this but i think itll have the opposite impact. these players are gone now which puts added value to those rated at the end of season. the only tall i've seen rated higher than mac andrew is F/S sam darcy...
  16. thanks guys, super stoked to be on board officially! its been so hard not being able to share the news sooner, hard work starts now go dees?❤️?
  17. yep absolutely back what you're saying, i was listening on audio only so couldn't tell if maybe they were exaggerating their point to hide their slip or as i thought at the time and basically all night up until 10 minutes ago that he was completely woeful at football edit: just watched it back gussy seemed absolutely clued in "nah nah nah, keep it under wraps" and then benny gibson tried to defuse it and gawny kinda chuckled at himself like ahhh whatve i done here
  18. kyle?!?! we didnt reselect dunkley did we!? think ya meant kye* xx
  19. makes gawny and guss' comments today even more confusing... maybe they were told to keep it under wraps mid sentence otherwise could make for a frosty 2nd meeting with kye
  20. absolutely not, the ferret never showed any real signs i'm interested !
  21. some great leaders historically have played at half back?
  22. is interesting that the club doesn't feel the need to take 3 picks. i guess although we have 3 LTI we have decent depth atm and would rather play guys we have already as the year progresses. gotta admit i like the idea of stengle who kicks bags at state level and has proven he can do it afl level too as a position of need and riley knight averaged over 20 touches in that successful crows side of 2017 and the wing is also a weaker point of ours in terms of next-in insurance. i guess he's a good role player but when the high end talent started to depart the crows he struggled to find the football
  23. bernie vince? unless im missing a gag here?? yep so it's 50k contract, if it's a 6month contract and they are delisted thats another 20k to the player and regardless of terms its 10k to the state league side only that they come from. the money is all from outside the salary cap tho as the player joins as a Cat A rookie
  24. josh green, also a member of the giants academy, trained on with richmond in preseason as SSP and played vs us in the 2s match. back playing with the giants in the vfl
