Big man aims for big show

JAKE SPENCER is not a name well known outside Melbourne Football Club and its faithful supporter base, but the giant ruckman is looking to make a few people sit up and take notice in 2009

Dean [bailey] said that if I can get through pre-season, and he can tell that I'm working hard, then I'm every chance to play in the NAB Cup -- that's when I hope to get a chance and we'll see what happens

    This article seems to me to be a message to those people who are questioning whether we have taken enough big men in the draft. We have one that the club rates developing on our list.

    Clearly the club believes that he is a chance of making it and is sending a message to not only the supporteres but to the player himself.

    I can't wait. Fingers crossed for NAB cup game!

    I actually can't remember what his kicking is like? I don't remember it being terrible.

    I'm a huge fan of big Stef, his kicking is passable but needs more work as it looks like he himself does not trust it yet and so prefers to handball off to a more proficient team mate. The huge plus is his speed of hands and the distance he gets with his handballs...his basketball heritage coming to the fore.

    Whilst I'd imagine when there will be times when he goes forward, at the moment he looks best suited to the backline.

    Caveat: 12 months ago I though Garland was a forward. ;)

    I'm actually really excited about the NAB cup. I think we'll see most, if not all of our recruits from last year, and probably some of this year's draftees make an appearance.

    What a friggin disgrace it is that they stuck us in bloody Tasmania against the Hawks in the first round though!

    Supporters have been asking where are our tall timber coming from in the draft? Or why wasn't a ruckman picked?

    Here they are: - Stef Martin, Jake Spencer, Mark Jamar, Paul Johnson, John Meesen.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
