BAMF

Early days. We usually get enough to fill up 2 or 3 leagues I think?

I would like to thankyou for your efforts over the past 10 years. So. Thanks!

Nah. If another team wins that means we lost. No way am I ever wishing another team wins 5.

I was there. It happened. It was glorious 😀

You have no idea about Harris or Nik Nat.

Huge game.

For arguments sake. Hibberd or Bowey could be replaced with Hunt. Some might have Tomlinson ahead of Petty.

Depth will be key this season. Very happy we still have Melksham on the list. Hopefully he has something to prove and is busting his backside to get back to that 2018 form. As for list depth, I think others have covered it already but I will add... We need young tall depth. I don't want Jackson forced to take the number one ruck role next year. I'm not sure I want him to ever take it really. He could be an absolute nightmare matchup as that 2nd ruck/ Tall forward/ Mid /Xfactor/Freak that I don't want locked down as number 1 ruck. I'm a little disappointed we didn't pick up another promising Ruck at the draft, but it's barely worth thinking about.

He has seen one afl game and doesn't know a thing about the sport which found it a bit tedious at times when Tom would have to explain the basics. Overall, I did enjoy it. Tom is always good to listen to.

I'm assuming that he is hopeful of getting onto the Demons list at some point as he is still young. We seem to have ditched the Casey recruiting of previous years. Likely Covid has impacted this as its ruined the VFL season. Good luck to him.

Buntine will be a good pick-up for Casey. Very happy. I remember Brock Smith being highly touted in his draft year but never heard of him post draft.

Ah yes... the academy zones. Given to us because the states in the north had an unfair advantage. A chance for us to develop some talent and get something back. Except when we do develop the kids the states in the north just draft them anyway. Seems really fair and worth our time and money. So yeah. Let not develop them too well so we can actually have access to them.

The sad thing is that I double checked to make sure I used a 'e' instead of an 'a'

I think both you and Dazzle have valid points. I'm happy we have him as depth but think it was an odd choice for him to choose us.

Im predicting Hibbered will play about 5 -10 games this year and will lose his spot in the 22 to a younger player. He will get a one year extension. Hoping that he can get to 100 games for the club. Currently on 89 and 173 in total.

At the 6:14 mark you can hear the regular Adelaide Demon supporter yelling "Whoo Hoo!" in the background!

Anyone following the NBA will see that this would be a huuuge advantage if all our players got it prior to the season. Difficult with the various strains i guess.

He needs 3 games to get to 200. I bet he will play 3. If he didnt have the supplement saga year off he would have made it to 100 games for the club and become a life member.

I feel like this has been said before. He is contracted for two years so I technically we could be saying the same thing this time next year. I get what you are saying though... if he can't put it together this year then I think even the more ardent supporters will lose patience. What would be the bare minimum pass mark for Weid this year? I think he needs to show that he can consistently kick multiple goals.

Not fair at all. McCrae is a very good player. Is he as good ad Oliver? No. The guy who you quoted doesn't watch non demon games.

I rate him very highly. I would love to have Bailey Smith on the list. I don't think he will ever be the mid who continually pushes back into defence. He does his best work mid and fwd and he would be wasted if he didn't play to these strengths. He didn't have the best grand final but is still young. Gus had an epic grand final. I will love him forever for that game alone.

They had no other choice. If they played Sweet instead the result would have been worse. They took a punt on a 198cm, 35 year old ruckman which cost them very little in trade and salary cap in the off season. He just couldn't stay fit enough to get the job done. It might have paid off if they came up against another club with weaker rucks in the grand final. Personally I thought it wasn't a great pick-up at the time.

The preliminary final... my god.

Pretty sure you have to turn 18 the year of the draft. He is 14 (May), so will turn 18 in 2025.

Received my first order which I did a few hours after the granny. Premiership beanie included. I cant even remember ordering it. Still waiting on the Premiership guernsey which was ordered a week later
