TRAINING: Friday 9th December 2022
Barry Jones lived 2 doors from me. But back to the training thread. Have the houses started tumbling yet? Big years for Laurie, Chandler, Deakyn Smith and J. Smith.

Welcome to Demonland Will Verrall
Yep, if the top shelf is too high for a 195 cm person, then you are right.

Jumper numbers for season 2023?
Verrall is now listed at 200 cms tall. Assuming Farris-White is not stooping, either Verrall has grown, or Farris-White is not 206 cms. There doesn't seem to be 6 cms difference in their heights. Also Verrall seems more than 4cms taller than Adams, so hopefully Verrall has grown. F-W and V are big boys. With those 2 and Scahche at 201 cms, we seem pretty ok in the ruck after Max and BG. Whatever, we have certainly added some height to the list this year.

Is his dad 199 cms? Did he play footy at a high level?

Who missed out in the drafts?
Maybe Saints wanted to see him training. He will probably be added as supplemental player.

Welcome to Demonland Oliver Sestan
Think the umpires gave them a leg up.

Welcome to Demonland Oliver Sestan
The great comment from JT was that we don’t expect the draftees to play early, but rather to just develop their games. That is just so different to the old Melbourne, where we would say that hopefully draftees would play some games next year.

Every Team’s Draft Ranked
Couldn’t agree more. Draft badly and win the flag and suddenly the bad draft was a brilliant one. Evaluating a draft is just ridiculous and even Shifter Sheahan says every player drafted is great and a potential star. Really?

Welcome to Demonland Oliver Sestan
I detect a good sense of humour in his mum. See the Bistro sign on the kitchen window.

Welcome to Demonland Oliver Sestan
Hello!

Welcome to Demonland Oliver Sestan
Yes and that still leaves 36 goals in 6 games which is also impressive.
-
Welcome to Demonland Oliver Sestan
Is he our Brayden George compo? An inside mid kicking 60 goals in 7 games is pretty impressive.

Welcome to Demonland Oliver Sestan
That’s a great stat to start with.

2022 AFL NATIONAL ROOKIE DRAFT
Well done.
-
Welcome to Demonland Pick 13
No, we won’t use our last 2 picks because we only have one rookie spot after tonight. Keeping Hibbo and Melk limited our picks this year, but probably makes things easier next draft season.
-
Welcome to Demonland Pick 13
No reason to expect that. Pick 37 is like 2 new players for each club. You are not saying the 2nd new kid for each club, each year, will never make it, are you. Max was a pick in the 30’s and Tom Mac 54 and James MacDonald was a rookie as was Flash and the list goes on and on.

DRAFT DAY TWO: THE 2022 AFL NATIONAL DRAFT
So you agree with me. Make Bombers pay and lose 22. I don’t think we would want Davey at all given other targets.
-
DRAFT DAY TWO: THE 2022 AFL NATIONAL DRAFT
Good thing would be for Giants to nominate Alwyn Davey and make Bombers match and then trade the pick to us.
-
Dees considering big trade plays
Well, if we want a George or Barnett, we have to get a higher pick and if we can’t, at least we will go into the 2023 draft with a good hand. If we retain 37, Phoenix Foster has been mentioned. Do you see his type as our aim, given Jefferson being taken, or do you see us just going best available, no matter the type of player?

DRAFT DAY ONE: THE 2022 AFL NATIONAL DRAFT
Agree. It just keeps happening for them.
