Demonstone

That's wonderful news! It means he won't be anywhere near MFC.

*pedants 😁😁😁

That's all well and good, but did you predict this? Wickets taken in the first Ashes test by country of birth Australia: 20 New Zealand: 5 South Africa: 5 Barbados: 2 England: 0

Nobody in the #19, @Demongirl35 ? Onley? Or perhaps Matthews?

I'd love to join this thread, but my hairshirt still hasn't come back from the dry cleaners.

Can't wait to see the The Demonland Centre up and running.

Me too, @rjay . He was my first Demon hero and I proudly wore his #29 on my Melbourne footy jumper.

Was he seated or did he stand?

Way back in 1960, the prescient Roy Orbison sang and also co-wrote a song about Riley doing extra training on his own to try to make the grade. Older readers will remember the wonderful "Onley The Lonely", which was deservedly a big hit. Let's hope that Riley is just as successful.

Nice of the AFL to time the Rookie Draft to coincide with the lunch break at the cricket.

Taken the pick before ours.

They met at a BBQ, apparently.

Callery would say 'Lo wouldn't he?

Wrong Tom Matthews @manny100 !

He doesn't have an apostrophe in his name.

At 171cm (5'6" in the old money), he's only a bee's appendage taller than Nick Watson.

Another small forward.

Sam Allen gone to WCE. Here we go. Our turn now.

Birdman Avery. Not one of Demonland's preferred picks.

Dogs have gone for a ruck.

Bannan holds her spot. Let's hope she has a big one.

If Thredgold gets picked, will his thread be gold?

As long as we don't pick up two more. XXXX leaves a nasty taste in the mouth.

Max Holmes' brother is still there, along with Kickett, Rodriguez and Swadling.

A tad premature to making that judgement, wouldn't you say? In JT we trust.
