What a set of wheels this guy has! Can't believe how fast he ran down Melksham in the 3rd quarter. Impressive pace.

He looks very likely...nice build too.....

Great to see guys like he and Evans coming through creating more pressure for spots!

Saw that up pretty close and it really impressed me. Think he was flanked by Jones also - looked like they were both out to hunt the young Bomber and get a taste of enemy blood.

What I loved about him, and Evans for that matter, is that they're not afraid to take the game on with their pace. Nicho especially, a number of times he put on the afterburners through heavy traffic.

Agree...so good.

Great to see young kids coming in and backing themselves.

Nicholson looks a touch classier than Evans for mine, but god Evans worked his butt off. He ran constantly to present and spread.

Both didn't look at all out of place, and neither did Howe or Gawn to be honest.

And for Nicho to come on and play so well after being the sub last week and again this week, was a sensational effort.

I can't believe we got those two as rookies. How did they slip through from the National Draft?

Evans I know - he barely played the last two seasons due to injury. But god, look at him now!

Posted

He is better then the last Nicholson we had! :P

Wash your mouth out...

What is it with the demons and their rookies?

Don't forget his left boot.....which, like Tom Scully's, will find it's measure against the big boys in 10 or so games. He's got all the tricks this boy, we did VERY VERY well in picking he and Michael Evans up.

He is a lot bigger than when I last saw him during preseason. I was very impressed with his intensity and attack (on both ball and player) and he has a physicality like Moloney. I'n not going to make huge statements but he looks so strong. If I compare him to Dunn or Petterd etc... at the least his attack on the contest tonight was very impressive.

Nicho and Evans have added a touch of pace to the outfit. Nicho is a tad cleaner than Evans, but Evans is more of an in and under player than Nicho. Both have been selected and added something. I looked at our team on paper and thought we might be too green to beat the bombers, but Evans,Nicho, Gawn and Strauss played like they had done it 100 times before.

The Rookie list has been good for this club.

Absolute ripper, speed, composure, takes the game on, not a fearful second gamer thats for sure.

What is most impressive is that he has had an impact as a sub the past 2 weeks. I can count on one hand the number of subs across the competition which have managed to have an impact after sitting on the pine.

Reckon he may get a full time gig next week.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
