I think it's going to be impossible to get near him at family day as everyone will be flocking around him! That's if he's there.

When I stood next to him at this years family Day at Luna Park, there was hardly anyone around him. He was handballing with some kids. At the time, I thought how is this guy going to go in his first year.......Wow. Now we all know. He is a freak (in the best possible sense with ball in hand or by foot).

Go Jurrah

Go Dees!

Just interested in everybodys thoughts as to who will win the best 1st year player. Think it has to go Jurrah although Bennell and Jetta have shown a bit also.

Who else could it be.. Geesus :lol:

Jurrah might just be the best 1st year player ever!

(Even tho Buckleys 1st year was a beauty- for different reasons, Dan Rich too whos 1st year, this year, was very similar to Buckleys..

Id still pick Jurrah ahead of them to be in my team.)

As Grimes only played one, token game last year to give him a feel for the pace let's ignore that and call him a first year player.

Grimes is 20yrs and 3 months.

Jurrah is 20yrs and 11 months.

So in maturity and development levels they are pretty comparitable.

My question is, if we only had room for one of these two on our list which one would you keep?

50 /50 I reckon. Probably Jurrah just because of questions over Jack's back.

Grimes is going to be a gun but I would prefer Jurrah he's the most exciting player with have ever had. Anyone who doesn't think that Jurrah will win the Best First Year Player Award by a country mile has rocks in their head.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
