I actually think he'll play better at AFL level where the quality of disposals are much better than at VFL level.

I don't think you've seen Melbourne play :lol:

I just like seeing guys debut on the G.

But yeah, he'd be close to a shoo in for next Friday I'd think, and I hope he comes in.

Watts and Jurrah in the forward line, exciting times! Grimes with the kick-in, delivers to Sylvia, plays on and runs up the wing with a couple of bounces, draws the man and hands off to Bennell, look at him go, has a bounce, looks to deliver inside 50 and Watts on the lead takes the mark 50 out directly in front. Davey is running past and Watts hands off, Davey sees Jurrah one-out in the square and Jurrah with a strong mark in the square goes back and kicks his first goal in the AFL what a play for the Dees and Melbourne lead 1.0 to 0.1 here on Friday-Night football.

I don't think its playing to Jurrah's strengths to just leave him one out in the goal square; he probably wouldn't win an arm wrestle at this stage.

True but given space and kicked to adavantage he would be hard to beat on the lead, as would Watts.

I think our forward structure will need a complete rethink if these two blokes are included.

I can't see him out-wrestling anyone's full back at this stage, but can you see any of those full backs matching him on the lead? From the little I saw on the TV a couple of weeks ago, he's lightning.

Our delivery into the forward line will just sit it on top of his head... He'll have no chance, play him on the flank, let him run around, just like he has for Casey. He hasn't been playing full forward for them...

Agree

His lack of body strength would give away his own strengths if played as a KP foward

As far as physique goes Watts is another example of a CHF waiting for his body to catch up

Royce Hart didnt start at CHF either

I hope he plays against the 'dons on Friday. 11 goals in 3 weeks means his form is good, and if DB is true to his word of picking the team on form, he'll be in, no doubt.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. He has to be a absolute dead set certainty. I'm going on Friday so I sure hope he does too !!

We know it's likely Miller will come back in and you'd expect Bennell and Jurrah too as well.

Selection is going to be VERY interesting this week.

Bradley is much maligned, he does however provide a physical presence that I think will make life easier for the likes of Watts and Jurrah.

Yeah, Japaljarri is posting on the Big Footy Melbourne Board. Seems to be suggesting it is a certainty that Liam will play on Friday night.

Will be interesting to see if Rudeboy has anything to add to this.

Sounds like Liam is in. Rock and Roll!!!!

Great news!!!

Should be exciting...

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
