dee-tox

Too simple to say lazy, doesn't work hard enough etc. Probably going to be a late maturer. Aerobic capacity has always been a work in progress. He'll get there. He'll be more like Dustin Martin and mature at 25, not 21.

You working on the boats these days Skuit? ?

Knightmare's assessments are generally excellent. So right on Petracca's endurance, Stretch's marking ability and ANB's rushed, scrubber kicks.

Interesting take. Have seen Duursma go as high as 10 in some phantoms.

Here's hoping Stretch is that long lost wingman. Injury free we look good!

Always said Melbourne supporters are better looking than all other fans. Meaghan will look fabulous in red and blue!

May-te!

Like this. Another genuine mongrel bar steward. We have a few in the team now with Milkman, Viney, Lever, Preuss, Nev, etc.

Liked him in his draft year. You would have wanted him to show a bit more after three seasons. The really good kids tend to make some sort of impact in their first year.

Good move. Message to rest of the group that you need to earn your half a million a year.

This is good news. Vanders is one of those spiritual-type players that is worth more to the club than what appears on the surface.

Has been searching houses in the Casey/Berwick area this year...

If he comes to Melbourne let's hope he's not just another high draft pick that doesn't quite make it despite changing clubs. Jono O'Rourke, Gysberts, Toumpas, etc

Not so sure. Been told by Gold Coast to explore his options. Raking left foot kicks are always welcome! Maybe part of the answer to our outside woes.

What an ordinary comment.

Salem made a couple of errors but Roos gave him best-on-ground for Fox so OK by me!

We bullied the pussycats. Bit more composure and it's a 12 goal win.

The falling over and the slowness are a worry. Our oldest Vince and Lewis were exposed. Our youngest in Spargo was also exposed.

Always been a tank, but he's now a Landkreuzer P1500 Monster! Scary.

Understand the need to have him. We lack silk on the outside. However, I prefer a younger target that can give you eight or nine years service. Maybe Witherden from Brissy, or Fiorini from the Suns? Then again these guys are not free agents.

Sunday's game was the start only for Brayshaw. I didn't like his pre season games and at the time wondered if he would live up to early expectations. Unlike Oliver and Viney, Brayshaw, Salem and Petracca have only shown fleeting glimpses of their talent.

Bizarre. Quarter time last Sunday McCartney was doing most of the talking. Don't like this one little bit.

Check out WJ's 2017 draft prospects thread from last year. Few concerns that GWS would get a top-five pick because he was in their academy at the time. Our own Chelly had him going at one!

Has speed, agility and class on both sides of the body. Is also a leader, but perhaps most important is a competitive little animal too. Cracks in and his defensive pressure is first class. Could have easily been a top-five pick if not injured this year. Embrace this pick Demonlanders. We're lucky to have him.

Love this! Been on about Spargo for 18 months. Boy can play!
