Just thought i'd give the guy some praise...............cos i haven't seen anything mentioned about him from the brissy game.

I thought he was fantastic, i was at the game and made sure i kept an eye on him.

19 touches and 3 tackles..............he is fast becoming one of my favourites

I also thought he did well...although some of his disposals were a bit rushed and led to a few mistakes, but his work around the stoppages was again good.

Needs more games and game time, has the physique and smarts to cope at this level. Will be very handy type for Bailey.

He did some good things, but I thought his disposals were pretty diabolical at times. People were having a go at CJ's disposals when Valenti's were far worse.

His ability to stand up in a tackle is superb. Great balance and except for a silly kick across goal early it thought he was very good

I agree. From what I saw, he lost his feet a bit too (although he did stand up in a few tackles).

With Moloney and McLean out for the count, I think he'll get a chance to secure a senior spot, though.

Good luck to him.

That was a definite highlight of his game on the weekend. His tackling and enthusiasm was stood out as well. Actually, the tackling and defensive pressure was a major feature of the entire team. Terrific to watch.

He's an interesting fella isnt he. He defies his stature in tackles...seems to be smeared with ball glue..lol. I think he's stil lfinding his way at this level but he's getting there. As others have noted he's been a little less than perfect in disposal but thats getting better unlike someone else I could mention :rolleyes:;) )

Whilst the execution of ideas remains to climb to higher levels the ideas and vision itself is pretty good. He seems to know where to put it..even if it doesnt happen perfectly yet.. As he settles and this betters I think he may prove quite the little general out there. He has a bit of a footy brain this lad :)

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
