His pace and skills are helpful up forward at the moment.

As for whether he's answered the critics, I imagine the jury's still out for them.

It can take one moment to lose respect, and quite a bit longer to earn it.

keeps his form up and he will make it very hard for maric, jetta and my aussie to come back in the side..

well done tho jamie! loved his game.

What dee luded said. Keyser- JB wouldn't have been under any disillusions as to why he was dropped, the reason would have been made crystal clear- And I would hope dropping him to work on his deficiencies would have helped him- not have the opposite effect.

In any case it’s all irrelevant now because he just came off a cracker... however, (& please don't think i'm a troll.. just merely stimulating conversation) if he does squib it big again, what then??

Go Dees!!

How would you know? He played one effective Qtr where thankfully, he influenced the game.

Thats what we wanted from him. Thats how he played last year.

What he has dished up this year prior to yesterdays last Qtr, has been crap.

He needs to keep it up. Because there are other youngsters who deserve a game.

Has the critisism stung him enough to make the penny drop long term? We won't know for a little while till the dust settles, & he relaxes again. Then we'll see what he's made of.

I, personally see his talent & want him to not only succeed, but star. I hope your right, that he's been sorted.

Well if you called his first 3 qtrs crap love to know your thoughts on the rest of the team espec after a 1 goal first half

easily in our best 4th or 5th player for the entire day

As I mentioned in another thread I thought he was just as good the week before against the Pies besides a couple of contests he could have gone harder at vs Pies.

His skill level is improving compared to the preseason where he had the run and carry out of defence but he would turn the ball over often. Hopefully we continue to see the upward improvement and consistancy from him. He could turn out to be a beauty.

His last two weeks have been pleasing I reckon, and should give the footy department a lot of confidence when it comes to putting players up and down every week. They've stuck with Dunn and seen results. Newton is being persisted with, and I reckon if there's room for him there HAS to be room for Bennell. They could have been forgiven for dropping JB, they stuck fat. I think it says as much about them as it does Jamie.

I'm hoping the talk after last week got him angry. Either because he cramped and was keen to prove people wrong, or because he squibbed and wanted to prove he was worth persisting with.

Either way he responded quickly. Very pleasing.

Bennell has alot of skill and should be persisted with.

Newton is a beneficiary of consequence and would not be there if there were half decent options. Newton was put on the rookie list at 2009 year end. I have seen nothing to suggest he wont be gone at the end of 2010.

I am not sure what Dunn has delivered to date but has confirmed the question marks that surround his performances in now his sixth year. Flaky at best.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
