Watched the Toigs on Saturday night. This won’t be easy.

An additional player and a little change as a result of the outstanding 4 goal performance of Harry Sharp, rivalled by Harvey Langford’s good form with Xavier Lindsay not far behind. I have the field as follows - 1. Harvey Langford 2. Harry Sharp 3. Xavier Lindsay 4 (eq). Jack Henderson, Aidan Johnson 6. Matt Jefferson 7 (eq). Tom Campbell, Jai Culley 9. Jed Adams 10. Oliver Sestan 11. Tom Fullarton 12. Will Verrall 13. Ricky Mentha Jnr 14. Luker Kentfield

Well, we now have 13 with the signing of Jack Henderson and I’ve put him on equal footing next to his Werribee mate AJ. It’s a case of sight unseen but I put him there because of our small forward shortage in the absence of Kozzie, McAdam and the slow pace of Spargo returning to full fitness. Don’t know if Henderson trains today but next Saturday should be of interest. 1. Harvey Langford 2. Xavier Lindsay 3. Harry Sharp 4 (eq). Jack Henderson, Aidan Johnson 6. Matt Jefferson 7.

Melbourne currently has twelve players on its list who have yet to play an AFL game for the club. This is how I rank them in terms of readiness to make their MFC debut in the coming season — 1. Harvey Langford 2. Xavier Lindsay 3. Harry Sharp 4. Aidan Johnson 5. Matt Jefferson 6. Tom Campbell 7. Tom Fullarton 8. Oliver Sestan 9. Jed Adams 10. Will Verrall 11. Ricky Mentha Jnr 12. Luker Kentfield Your views?

The AFL aren’t mugs either. In order to have a player put on the inactive list, you have to have medical evidence that the player will not be able to play for the whole of the season. It won’t happen.

If he’s back training now then there is absolutely no way in the world that he can be put on a long term injury or inactive list. End of story.

Congratulations on the wedding. In the absence of any reports from Casey Fields, could Demonland please send a camera crew to the city to cover the ceremony?

Van Dam is training at North Melbourne VFL.

We celebrate our players - that’s a given and should never be underestimated. There are, however, many other heroes of the Melbourne Football Club.

And the winner of the Demonland Original Post for 2024 is ...

High flying KPP. I believe he’s signed on with the Casey Demons for 2025 in the hope of getting a list spot at Melbourne in the SSP if a position opens up.
