It was hilarious! So good to watch though.. makes you feel proud to be a dees supporter again seeing that sort of passion!

he will definitely get drafted! he doesnt have the size.. but he has the build to be a strong 'pocket rocket' as they called him on SEN today! he will be a very handy defender for any team! are you honestly trying to claim the eagles wont win another game? Eagles play freo, essendon at subi, north at subi and tigers at subi.. there is no way they wont win at least one of these games! freo are probably our biggest threats and that is only to steal 2nd pick off us.. although they could even beat Carlton tomoz hopefully!

for once this is really hard!! 6 Grimes 5 McLean 4 Bruce 3 Rivers 2 Jones 1 Jamar so many other players id like to put in here.. very exciting game! How good was our backline.. and our team song at the end haha

it was great.. flashes of the robbo of old that we used to love.. still flies at everything.. but at least he was pulling most of them off today! rivers was great!!

if he doesnt get it this week something is very wrong!!

obviously it is still early to tell.. and it is just my opinion from what i have seen/heard.. i think the early picks might go something like this: 1 Dees – Scully 2 Dees – Trengove 3 Freo – Morabito – then again it is freo.. they will probably pick someone tipped to go 4th round or trade for some old guy 4 Tigers – Butcher – they need a forward badly 5 West Coast – Lucas Port Adelaide and Adelaide will probably pick Panos and Tapscott as they usually stick with locals

haha i was thinking the same thing!! please pick these two!! Please!!

WA DOMINATES U18 ALL-AUSTRALIAN TEAM

I have updated the stats on the first page and here is the final leader board! Leader Board GOALS Matera (WA) 16 Panos (SA) 14 Darling (WA) 14 Silverlock (SA) 11 Emery (NSW/ACT) 10 Butcher (Vic Country) 9 Tapscott (SA) 9 Fyfe (WA) 9 Hicks (Vic Metro) 9 McNeil (NSW/ACT) 9 Fowler (Qld) 8 Sargeant (NSW/ACT) 8 Houghton (WA) 8 May (NT) 8 Hoegel (Vic Metro) 8 Duncan (WA) 8 Archer (Tas) 8 T. Taylor (NT) 7 Russell (Tas) 7 Moore (Vic Metro) 7 Carlisle (Vic Metro) 7 BEST Trengove (SA) 5 Swallow (WA) 5 Toy (Vic Metro) 5 Carey (SA) 5 Jolly (SA) 5 Milne (Tas) 5 Scully (Vic Metro) 4 Panos (SA) 4 Hooper (Vic Country) 4 Harwood (Tas) 4 Gaff (Vic Metro) 4 Cunnington (Vic Country) 4 S. Taylor (NT) 4 Ah Chee (NT) 4 Darling (WA) 4 Crichton (Tas) 4 Williams (NSW/ACT) 4 Tutt (NSW/ACT) 4 McNeill (NSW/ACT) 4

I am completely on the Scully and Trengove ship! Scully is a freak without a doubt.. and Trengove showed similar in the first half.. he had a poor 2nd half.. but he has been dominating every other game! Trengove can also play forward.. so it would be awesome to use him in the midfield/forward flank position like Geelong do with all of their mids.. gives us more depth! I will be really [censored] if we pick Morabito over Trengove! He looks ok.. but he looks like a selfish player that tries for ‘glory shots’.. and his kicking is only ok.. I would even pick Kane Lucas ahead of Morabito!

west coast drop Kerr and everyone still thinks they are tanking? are you guys serious? did you not watch last week.. why would they tank when they have winnable games coming up, there is no way they will go the rest of the season without a win.. they do play tigers at subi, freo, etc.. i still think west coast will beat us with that lineup having said that.. very happy to see PJ finally dropped and the Russian back, that really sucks Watts is sick.. as others have said, it would have been great to see him against a weaker team to what we have been playing! interesting to see Jurrah on the wing too!

ill try and do a better summary tomorrow but people who were highlights - Roland Ah Chee (NT) was best on ground in the NT v Qld game for me.. he should be a bit of a gun.. if he slips to round 2 would love to grab him! Steven May (NT) solid forward. Kicked 3 goals Gary Rohan (Vic Country) - my god this guy is quick!! very flashy.. doesn’t get heaps of it.. but when he does he produces magic!! John Butcher (Vic Country) - didn’t get much of it at all.. WA dominating the game was probably why. Seemed to have 2 on him most of the match. He was a little disappointing after a lot of hype.. but I dare say.. he still looked like one of the better forwards today (it was pretty much all midfielders game) Dustin Martin (Vic Country) - probably Country's best player.. ball magnet! Ended up with 28 possessions! Kane Lucas (WA) - highest disposals for WA and I think was equal best on ground with Martin! Great player! Anthony Morabito (WA) - good size, goes hard, flashy, but it looked like he was going for a lot of 'hero' shots when he could have passed it around more Tom Scully (Vic Metro) - so far above the rest.. total freak!! he runs non stop.. amazing! Luke Tapscott (SA) - kicked 3 goals.. SA's best forward from what i saw! Great build for a forward Jack Trengrove (SA) - amazing first quarter.. then went missing.. Matthew Panos (SA) - did some ok things.. but didn’t see much at all after hype.. he didn’t get a lot of deliveries to him though as Tapscott was ripping it up! I have more players that ill report on tomorrow.. but Vic Metro looked horrible!!

i agree.. after the first quarter he looked amazing and i was thinking hell yeah.. two gun midfielders.. we are set!! ..then he just went missing for the rest of the game! its probably hard to judge him on one game! he has had a few matches with 30 possessions so he will probably still be worth the 2nd pick! he is a good size too!

sorry buddy.. beat ya to it http://forums.demonland.com/index.php?showtopic=15621

same! 6 Davey 5 Bruce 4 Sylvia 3 Jones 2 Green 1 Grimes

Scully backs Watts to find form http://www.theage.com.au/news/rfnews/scull...6127477823.html scully seems like another mature player for his age.. what a star! him and watts for future captain!

Lyon not interested in coaching now, but won't rule out the future http://www.theage.com.au/news/rfnews/lyon-...6127477363.html

yeah that is very true.. 9 till 6 is a lot of footy for any person! haha i hope so too!!

also.. Swallow, Toy and Matera all seem to be dominating however all 3 will probably go to Gold Coast.. Panos kicking 5 goals on Saturday has taken second spot on the goal kicking list Hooper for Vic Country has had a very solid run so far although i don’t know much about him? anyone? Trengove has had his 4th straight best on ground and you would think he will probably take #2 spot over Butcher now! Scully had his 3rd #1 best on ground! Butcher also had a 3rd best on and kicked 2 goals to lead Vic Country's goal kickers for the series.. although it seems he is over shadowed by Panos as the best Key Forward in the draft Kane Lucas apparently had a massive game on Saturday for WA Darling (WA), Silverlock (SA) and Hicks (Vic Metro) could all be handy forwards looking at their goal kicking so far! ITS HEATING UP!!

for those interested i have updated the stats and leader board!!

apparently all 4 games are being shown on Fox Sports! if you dont have fox i also heard SEN mention that they will be broadcasting all games live! i plan to watch them all and will give a write up! i just got a new job and told them i had 'things on' Wednesday and cant start until Thursday

great win to west coast which pretty much guarantees us picks 1 and 2.. ..last few weeks everyone claimed west coast were tanking.. i knew they werent!!

as far as young players with potential it is

true.. but having watts, jurrah..AND butcher.. plus wonnaz in the pocket is a DREAM forward line!! i still think we have a bit in the midfield that can develop.. Moloney still has a few years.. Brocky, Nate Jones.. plus Morton, Grimes, Blease are all still so young and should become stars.. and if we get Scully!! it wont be the best midfield in the comp.. but it would be pretty good! still too early to call though - but its an exciting time!!
