  1. Was just listening to the podcast on the AFL website. I switched it off after Carlton's 2nd pick but it went...

    1. Weietering - Carl

    2. Schache - Bris

    3. Mills - Syd

    4. Parish - Melb

    5. Hopper - GWS

    6. Kennedy - GWS

    7. Francis - Ess

    8. Weideman - Ess

    9. Oliver - GCS

    10. Curnow - Melb

    11. Milera - Carl

    Curnow and Parish would be an amazing result for us.

    Thoughts?

    Please excuse my ignorance....

    but i thought we had pick 3 and 7?? why did they give us pick 10 on the podcast?

  2. if this is one of those games where we have a 30 point lead, but then concede 15 goals in a row (like GWS and Port) - I'll never post on Demonland again.

    if all the poeple who said that actually followed through demonland would be a very quiet place.

  4. Great game wonderful to watch and one of the best and most conssitant matches I have seen from us in a very e.

    Fitzy was great (and for anyone who has read the Farseer trilogy, Fitz's new nickname should become the assassin!)

    Spencer had the best game i have ever seen from him, the tapwork was great and the mongrel was huge for us. kicked well this week and looks to have found some confidence

    Hogan... well The hulk is the best thing to happen to this club in living memory, and the difference he makes to the side, the way he straightens up the way we play is enormous. he is not just a full forward to this team, many times he was up the field, making the contest and doing the right things.

    vanDemon will go down as one of the best rookie pickups of all time the pressure he applied was fantastic.

    the Toump will gain lots of confidence that he can actually play this game from that performance which is great

    The transformation of Vince into a tagger has been a revelation and he seems perfect for this role, freeing up Jones(who performed this most of last year) to do his thing.

    Pederson is great, and so much more valuable than doors, especially as he is flexable where he plays and can actually mark a footy.

    Brayshaw keeps blossoming, and the fact he had a killer final qurter is a fantastic sign from a young kid.

    Jones was his usual (2012-2014) self

    Cross, Dunn, Garland, T mac were their usual selves, the great defence we have seen all year

    a few matches under grimes belt and he is starting to remember how to play the game again

    Watts did not get a heap of the ball, but when he did, and what he did with it was brilliant.

    Howe looked good again in the forward line, and some passion that had been recently missing seemed to return

    Newton Garlett and Lumumbia were both servicable

    The last quarter when reily came on was a good display, and I look forward to seeing more

    Matt jones had a good third quarter and did some good things

    and bail played for us

    the pressure we applied for the whole game was great, the amount of times not one but two or more demons were tackling one dogs player, and the amount of times we would put their player on the ground after they disposed of the ball. it made the dogs look over their shoulders and worry about us :)

    no periods of poor football!!!! how nice is that to watch!!!!!

    absorbing pressure, without panicking and making an inspired comback at the end, the boys certainly did not look tired in the last quarter

    finally to sort-of quote queen

    "And bad mistakes, they were quite few" --- it is so nice not to get frustrated with poor/stupid kicks/hanballs/decisions we were the cleanest i have seen for ages.

    I am proud of you boys, lets see more of it!

  7. round 5.

    Max King: He kicked four goals in the Development League. He took 10 marks and he played the best game of his life. He probably kicked one of the goals of the year and took one of the marks of the year. Maxy’s heading in the right direction and we’re really happy with his past month. He’s going to put himself into senior VFL selection this week, which is exciting.

    round 4

    Max King: Max continues to improve. He kicked three goals and had another strong game from a marking point of view. We rate Kingy and we’re grading him a little bit harder, because he’s playing against more developing bodies in this league. His past two or three weeks have shown really good improvement. I don’t think an opportunity is too far around the corner for senior VFL selection.

  8. It is uncanny how similar the 'score worm' is for Carlton and the Saints. Looks like the same game being repeated.

    (as observed midway through 2nd quarter)

    Wow... three teams have all burst out with four unanswered goals, followed by one reply and then a bit of a lull.

    Football is strange.

    certainly is...

    it seems I sope too soon in my first post.
