From Claremont WA - 179cm 75 kg Midfielder with good kicking skills whose talent is undoubted. Considered to have a big upside.

From Inside Football Draft Special:-

MICHAEL EVANS - Claremont,WA Born: 13/7/92 Ht: 179cm Wt: 75kg "Michael's a smart player who is very creative. His biggest asset would be his game sense playing through the midfield and occasionally down forward. Still small but going through a growth spurt." - Claremont football manager Dean Horsington.

Love the fact this kid gets to live the AFL dream in an extra special way, by ending up at MFC.

Really looking forward to seeing him play.

2010 stats

from his numbers he gets a bit of the ball and some drive forward.

Can somone put his higlights on youtube for OS demons

Stats show he got a fair bit of the pill. Up to him to progress- now given the opportunity.

Yeah and when he gets it Claremont seem to get the job done. Could be a useful addition to our engine room.

Michael Evans, the sleek, slick-moving Lamborghini of the Claremont colts side, made his long-awaited return to action at Leederville Oval on Saturday, with a polished performance against East Perth.

His was a highly-encouraging performance before the side prepares for the clash with top side East Fremantle in the second semi-final at East Fremantle Oval next Saturday, writes Ken Casellas.

The 18-year-old Evans had missed several matches, recovering from an injured hip muscle and he eased back into football in a forward pocket before exploding into top gear when switched on to the ball in the second quarter.

He was one of the catalysts of Claremont’s solid 55-point victory which gave the side a record of 16 wins from 20 qualifying-round matches.

Evans, who took 11 marks, had 17 kicks and made four effective handpasses, again revealed his great value by sending the ball into his side’s 50m attacking zone eight times.

So lets put him in the Casey 2's and see if he can make the ones. If so, lets see if he can crack it in our highly rated senior midfield.

My bet is we won't see him in the seniors for a couple of years yet.

He is still young and has time to find his groove.

The rookies are exciting picks, as our FD have a knack for finding keepers.

Good luck to the kid, a MFC supporter pulling on the jumper would be a dream come true!

From memory there was a rule regarding interstate rookies, I remember we had to keep them for 2 years, does anyone know if this is still the case.

After watching robbo show I have a lot of respect for the kid. This kid has done some real hard yards. Hope he can keep his body together. Got a good head on his shoulders.

Three years is a long time in football.

He is lightning quick and was highlight to watch on the weekend.

Hopefully he becomes a regular, seems to me as a better version of Sam Blease

I really rate this bloke.



His interview on The Robbo Show is first class.



May not be big names, but I'm expecting small, but highly effective, steps from the likes of Evans, Matt Jones, Terlich and Kent.

yup, they all seem like a glimpse of light in what is already a dark season don't they? Although we are yet to professionally see Kent.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
