Definitely. Glad he got picked up after a really good season in the VFL last year - Pity he has to go all the way over West! Good luck to him.

Also agree- we will need to look at our tall backline at Casey with Faulks & Silvagni now gone.

I have mixed feelings on this. It is wonderful that he's been given a chance at AFL level, but now he has the double blow of having to pack his bags and move to Perth with the added slap of being on Fremantle's list. I would have been happier for him if he'd wound up with a local club with decent prospects. However, all in all being on an AFL list is a good thing, so well done I guess.

What a joke.

The guy is a mature aged player who has been given a chance to play AFL at Fremantle - I'm sure he is devastated.   ;)

Exactly. He'd be beside himself with excitement at the opportunity. He'd just be desperate to play I reckon.

I'm quite sure he would be over the moon to get onto an AFL list, even as a rookie.

But perhaps not as stoked as Pods getting on Geelong's list. ;)

A win for the player.

Being picked up by Freo is awesome!

Just look at Croad, McPhee, Brodie Holland, James Clement, Peter Bell, Jess Sinclair the list goes. All you have to do is stay a couple of years and get traded to a victorian club and you will have a great career.

Probably more opportunity to get a chance at AFL level with Freo.

That is true.

Is it just me or is Freos policy usually to pick up only Bombers players in the draft?

Is Silvagni any relation to SOS?

A cousin.

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188
