Really?? is he?

No chance to make the squad though, I hope.

I thought we now placed a priority on recruiting players that could kick..?

    He wasn't on the 'permission to train list' from memory, but then again, I'm not sure how often this is updated by the AFL or if you can simply add players given clearance on a daily basis.

    Regardless, I don't think we need him.

    Can't kick can't get it enough.

    Gets it enough sometimes but then again, anyone with the merest modicum of ability is going to get his hands on the footy going around with those Geelong blokes. Doesn't do enough with his kicks which lack precision and depth and I really think he would flounder and possibly end up a major league list clogger with us.

    Is it too optimistic to hope that if Tenace is training with the Demons it is as a some kind of cautionary tale?

    - High draft pick doesn't not equal guaranteed success.

    - Failure to improve skills does equal delisting.

    I have seen much worse than Tenace play at AFL level. He is alright, but I really cannot see him addressing a need for the MFC. He has less of an upside than Simon Buckley who was let go, signing Tenace would make no sense.

    Well, is he?

    I don't think anyone's answered this yet- Is he training with us or isn't he?

    How does he have less upside than Simon Buckley?

    In my mind they might as well be the same player; though I admit I've seen a lot less of Tenace than Buckley.

    Maxi Bob. Thankyou for your contribution to the thread and your 'thoughts'...

    .....on Kane Tenace.

    Tenace is quick. Scully is quicker. That's my contribution. ;)

    Very similar.

    Quick, flaky disposal and decision making skills with questionable defensive capability.

    The other issue with Buckley is any linger groin problems (The fact that he has been pictured in a NM training guernsey) does not mitigate that issue.

    That your mail has proven to be very reliable - perhaps Demonland deegirl?

    A fringe player in a champion team is not necessarily a dud and it's facile to assert that. He's potentially a pretty good player, but it's very hard to break into that midfield. He's excctly the right age and he has pace, which when I look at our 2010 best 22 even with Brock gone and Ball not arriving, is a problem.

    Look at Farren Ray, he made a significant contribution at St.Kilda. I think Tenace could add value.

    In the long run the problem is that we're aiming to be the next Geelong so that would see him at the fringes and Ray failed in the GF. But there's the possibility that he becomes a more effective player in his late 20s.

    I'm definitely interested.

    I can't believe people are actually interested in Kane Tenace.

    Kane Tenace...

    Come on, now. Tenace was on their list before they became a powerhouse, and he failed to do anything of note then either.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
