Great news. Will be very interested to see how he goes (even if it is just at Sandy 2's) in his comeback.

It's fantastic news!!

Grimes was drafted as a ready made prospect, so it'll be great to finally see the kid play.

He comes with some HUGE wraps, with a lot of clubs saying he would have been top 5 bar his recent injuries.

If Grimes is back then don't we have to put another player on the long term injury list to enable Aussie to keep playing (Aussie went on the senior list when Grimes was put on the LTI)?

Moloney and Robertson are both on the LTI list now.

Dont think there will be a problem with Aussie.

Good to see Jack is ready. hope the poor bugger can stay injury free till the end of the year.

Neitz put himself on the LTI list before he retired, so he could just take that spot

Good luck grimes!

I think if he plays this week it will be a half in the 2's and then progress from there, Would love to see him in the seniors by round 21, just hope he can produce some form to get there, but no matter if he does not, just hope he gets his body right and is ready for a full preseason.

Agree with that. This season should now just be for blowing out the cobwebs. I'd set my sights pretty low -- be aiming to be able to run a full game out for Sandy by years end, and put in a full pre-season ready to smash it next year.

This is the most exciting news all year for me. I hope he's able to get a run this week.

Hopefully Bell gets up for this week. I wonder how he'd go with a week off, though. Might be just the thing..? Perhaps I'm just trying to find the bright side.

I'm with you on this one, Nasher.

The Dees should put in Maric and Grimes in before Round 18. And Meesen. Lets take a look at em. Give them a taste of AFL, then full pre-seasons for them.

Looking fwd to 2009! Go Dees!

I've got a feeling you will be yearning for that Juice for awhile yet!!!

And also would not be surprised if the Juice changes flavours between now and the next time you have a taste (eg. changes clubs)

Massive trade bait IMHO :unsure:

who would a kid that has played 10-15 games, hasnt really set things alight at AFL level, who has questionable commitment to his football career?

juice needs to realise that he has 10 weeks left to not become an AFL reject, not to have to go back to his home town and be known as the guy who couldv'e made the grade, just didnt have the heart...

Yeah me too. Such bad luck, he's seem a top bloke and loves the club more than anything! No doubt he's making his presence felt around the place at training and stuff, since he can't do it on the field.

how's that, $20 mill and a new captain, you sure do bring good news. Now, is it true?

Well who better for a future captain than someone who not only captained the Vic side, but grew up wearing a Demons jumper? Skill, leadership and his heart beats true for the red and the blue? Sounds perfect to me :)

And, from what I can tell, yes.

I like this one:-

"He also ran a 15.1 beep test at the 2007 NAB AFL Draft Camp and his play has been likened to Brett Kirk of the Sydney Swans."

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
