12 tackles this round is the highest in the AFL aswell

2 weeks running

not a bad effort

our midfield is looking more balnced

 

In an earlier thread a couple of weeks ago, I said I hadn't seen what others were seeing him in.

Just wanted to say I see it now, not going to make any big calls but I am looking forward to seeing him develop and watching him for the remainder of the season.

And, as others have said, knocking back a spot on Adelaide's list to stay on our rookie list is a very loyal move.

Jordie was injured for the majority of his final year at the Falcons.

Didnt get much chance to show his wares to recruiters and his previous year was solid without being outstanding.

Edit:

I think he had chronic shin splints, but I can't quite remember.

At the halfway mark of the season each team is able to upgrade a rookie to the senior list regardless of LTIs.

He is an absolute cert to keep his spot, even with our weak ruck stocks. It might mean Gawn or Fitzy play rapier than expected, as Spencer won't stay up this season unless another injury occurs.

Jordie's success has effectively killed any chance Newton, Hughes or Healey have of surviving.

Jordie is a bloody beauty, missed alot of 2008 after having hip surgery, had some bone spurs removed. only played a handful of falcons games that year. Falcons were going to play him as an overage player for 2009 if not drafted. Budda loved him from all reports. he played in a Hampden Premiership in 2008 after the falcons were knocked out. he had about 15 tackles then against some big blokes.

great kid hopefully a great future.

as for that clown saying 2nd to the pill. melbourne finally found someone to put thier head over the footy and get their hands dirty, everyone looks great getting all the handball recieves and then kicking long. show some nuggets and go get involved like jordie.......

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
