Michael Evans upgraded from rookie list

Featured Replies

Yeah probably does deserves a list position, i dont see who the 4 we will cut for ND positions let alone a 5th spot.... will be interesting

Lets just enjoy this kid while we can

It is still only three compulsory changes. Upgraded rookies now replace your last draft picks. Newton, as the nonimated rookie, will have to be upgraded or delisted; good luck in your future endeavours, Michael. Evans, an a rookie elevated to replace a long-term injury, can remain as a rookie next year, should the club not be in a position to upgrade him.

 

It's hard to pre-empt these things but contrary to some around here I believe there will be a lot of movement in the list by the start of next season.

There will be plenty of room for Evans and alike if they are good enough.

 

I'm still adamant that he only got a game because DB had him confused with Wona.

hahaha. very good. all the best for Evans debuting.

I kid you not, when my son was at state school one of his best mates was one Michael Hunt.

I believe Mike was an acquaintance of Phil McCrevis (they go way back)

Would that be Phil McCafferty's cousin? He used to knock about with Ben Doon.

That would be him!

Ben & Phil were inseparable.

If he's a good player we should change his name to "Hank"...

That one's taken.

The feedback from the club at the time of his drafting was that they saw him as a very talented player who had been virtually invisible for his "drafting" years because of the injuries. So there was no recent form to go on making him a less attractive proposition in the "big" draft, but a very attractive rookie proposition.

I liked what I saw in the preseason matches and am very pleased he's got the opportunity to consolidate. Good luck.

Short term memory issues here, but I can't remember a higher number debut than 50 although I have a hazy recollection of Kowal in 52 (any help)

He reminds me of a poor man's Leigh Montagna from what I've seen. Should be exciting to watch on Saturday

Wow, I hope he has higher hopes than that. sorry, but I don't rate Montagna.

I think Evans is a beauty, so far.

Gary Ablett, Chris Judd, Lance Franklin, Leigh Matthews**

Nah just that he looks similar to Montagna and is that kind of player. Maybe a less powerful Adam Cooney in my very humble opinion.

Pretty sure Junior McDonald played his first year in #53 back in 96 or 97.

Just off the top of my head though i can't recall anyone in else in recent times playing in a jumper in the 50's. Highest number i can recall was Jordie McKenzie's #49 in 2009.

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
