Recommended Posts

Can anyone verify the below link on Gys?

Could the Dees have struck gold with young Jordon Gysberts?

I'm keeping an eye on this kid I've heard from a very good reliable source he is already performing way past expectations.

Don't forget Jim Stynes has been down to training lately...that in itself will inspire all our players and coaches to push harder.

That's why i think we shall suprise a lot of people this year.

Not only is he the lynch pin in this clubs resurgance, he is fighting the ultimate fight publically.

That has to inspire all who come close.

Hopefully recruiting Gysberts is a Fantastic choice and he makes the most of it.... :mad:

Who is that guy? The Poster? Doesn't really offer much in the way of backing up his statement..

People have knocked Gysberts for his kicking and i'm not sure why, but he finished equal 2nd in the kicking test at Draft camp, which at least shows he can use both feet relatively well.. He's an AIS boy as well.

People knocked Grimes for his kicking as a draftee, but from what i've seen he's a superb kick, despite having a slightly awkward looking action..

Gysberts seems like a very good decision maker too. Clean below the knees... i'm sure there's a good reason why we spent pick 11 on him... :lol:

I think we can expect all of our 1st 4 picks to figure for us this year. Exciting times ahead..

Apparently has played a bit of footy and has done quite well. His first name is Jordan and he is easy going likes Hoe-downs, mushrooming and The Simpsons.

Um, didnt everyone finished 'equal 2nd' in that kicking test?! :)

I've been looking at photos of training at Casey and notice there aren't any houses down there. Therefore, they must all be training the house down :lol: !

nice

if i go to training on friday morning i'll keep an eye out for him.

Hope theres a lil report coming our way bbb?

From what i've seen I would say it is his best preseason ever.

again, nice

And THAT thread was started by the site founder who is obviously trying to boost activity on his forum.

Noticed that too, but i suspect he's a Dees supporter. there seemed to be 3 times as many topics / responses in the MFC section if you check it out.. may be worth showing support there, as well as here, if so..

I'm pretty sure I overheard someone on the train the other day saying that he doesn't even flip his pillow over when it gets warm.

bahahaha this thread is hillarous!!! But maybe I just had really low expectations, hence the thread is actually just average... perhaps like the expecatations on Gys.

Uh oh, I was called by an insider at the club this morning at around 3am.

It seems the club are worried that he hasn't even made his debut yet and we may look to delist him mid season so there's more room in the showers and one less player to handcuff at the end of season footy trip.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
