    Hell yes Howie. I cant wait to get him up and about causing havoc. Especially since he is trimmer now and has more "Brothers" around him. Forgive me if I am mistaken but didn't he also take on a mentoring role ? The added responsibility plus the slimmer frame will make for exciting times ahead.

    As much as I love the guy, I want him to stay fit and play a full season before judging him based on a few great games.

    Second that.

    Really hoping the 2010 season will be injury free !!!

    It's getting frustrating as hell.

    Ohh I am seriously salivating at our forward line. Throw in Tapscott and Slyvia who can roost them from 60 and we have options for goals that we haven't had for years. Also before anyone cracks it I am only suggesting they have a ping from 55 plus out if there are no targets.

    The option will present itself quite frequently given that all of our forwards are of the "roaming up the ground" type. Don't be surprised to see them playing as link men and handballing off to the running player at around the 70m mark.

    completely agree.. i think everyone forgets how good this guy was in his first season.. i know it was only a few games.. but he has a lot of potential!!

    not playing last year and getting over shadowed by jurrah people have forgotten this.. i am always amazed when reading peoples 'future demon team' and they leave aussie out of the forward line!

    Aussie has passion, and most importantly he has HEART. The little guy can pump up the whole ground when he kicks goals & celebrates. I love this kid.

    THE MFC forward line is starting to taking shape, there will be a few worried defensive line real soon!!! GO THE DEES.

    Needs to be quicker than he was. It looked like he would be, given the reports of his fitness in the pre-season, but then he broke down and didn't play a senior game for us.

    As I said in a thread earlier in the year, I can't remember whether he can play or not. I do remember that I changed my mind 100 times during 2008, but too much water has passed under the bridge since he last played.

    Clean slate 2010 as far as I'm concerned.

    The thing I remember most watching the games from level 4 of the G is how well he read the play, and moved to the right spot inctinctively ALL the time. I remember vividly a goal he kicked against Collingwood, where he was running back towards the goal and intinctively cut inside, leaving his oponant for dead, and him free to take the ball on his chest and boot the goal from 40 on the run. Bring on 2010

    exactly what i remember too. what i liked about him was that he seemed to me a genuine crumber, who read the ball off the top of the play. he didnt have amazing pace, or super clever tricks, but he read it well. hopefully he continues on from where he left off, is a very promising player.

    Yes I reckon he can really play, really knows how to but the ball to teamate's advantage too.

    I'm hoping modern sports medicine can get him up because I had a similar knee cartiledge ingury 10 years ago and despite an arthriscope it really never got better despite being told it would be fine in 10 weeks

    What stands out for me is his kicking accuracy. Not just in front of goal, but his passing is superb as well.

    Hopefully his injuries haven't affected his kicking.

    Of course he is in our best 22. Jurrah and Wonaeamirri together in the same forward line, it's a recipe for magic.

    The new Dumbledor and Potter?

    Well, I guess we now have a Grawp so why not a Dumbledore & Potter?

    His 2008 was a tale of 2 stories.

    Was exciting in some of his early MCG games and was good for 2-3 goals each week. However he had no impact in his last half a dozen games - looked tired.

    Can't wait to see him in the same fwd line as Jurrah!!

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
