I haven't really read much about this guy, from what I have isn't he about 201cm Key Forward/Ruckman. Looking at Draft results quick for a big guy. I would love to have a forward that can kick goals and be a back up ruckman, from what I have read this guy can be that player.

Not many people rate him on here but if he lasts i think he will be our 18th pick. Even might pick him up with pick 11.

I have rated him for a while.

The attributes he shows for a tall like that are very very promising

From watching this year, I get the impression that Bailey wants our second ruckman to play as a tall forward. Your No1 ruck should ruck for 75% of match time, if you can get a player that can ruck for the other 25% and be a true forward option for the rest of the time and can kick goals you would need to consider with pick 11.

With the little knowledge I have on this guy, we was highly regarded and could fill the above roll.

I would rather have a punt on Max Gawn at pick 34. 206cm tall. Would have played ruck for Vic Metro this year but got injured pre-season.

*sound of crickets*

ATM he's an athlete not a footballer. He's has all the attributes to play football but he hasn't played particully well for the Jets and the game against SA in the carnival he looked awful.

I wouldn't say he looks an athlete. But that's my opinion.

Apart from his opening goal in that game, he looked all at sea.

Jack is a really nice fella whom showed his dedication to football by attending all finals as a spectator.

Needs to get into the gym as he is so light it is incredable.As we know has speed ,good kick but badly lacks stamina is my summation.I feel he will go late 3rd or early 4th round.I'd prefer Gawn if we indeed go for ruckman type.

This will depend on trade week - that is if we trade Johnson or Jamar.

I am a huge fan of Majak Daw for a ruck/forward role.

Fitzpatrick has potential also but is my second preference to Daw.

Believe it - they are great mates. Both could be a good get.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    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
