I agree i was very keen on him in 09, has battled with injury but showed alot of class on the weekend in an poor side. Get him now while he is cheap. Imagine the forward line...

Aussie Jack Liam

Butcher Cook Petterd

I think the guy is definately worth a punt, better off on our list than Bate.

From all reports he has been injured thus only played one game, Anyway his game against the hawks was good.

I cant see why alot of work on the track his kicking cant improve.

197cm Tall contested marking forwards dont grow on trees.

Hes right age and well, the chance to leave port who's future looks gloomy to play for the Dee's next year and a boy from Victoria, I dont think it would be a hard sell.

I can see our forward line providing the opposition defence many problems. I'd love to see Watts (196), Cook (196), Butcher (197) all in the same forward line. Along with Howe, Petterd and Jurrah who all have big leaps.

Thats OK, put him down back. :wacko:

Lol....now now Dee.

He was the one shining light against the Dawks last week. That has to say something. He might need some straightening up but i'm sure they'll work on all that with him.

I've only seen last weeks game, and one game doesn't really mean much, but it was against the Hawks who are doing pretty well. And the you tube vid courtesy Watt & Howe up there.

Love to secure this guy if we can. Maybe we can if Scully ends up getting poached.

Hutchi (on SEN this morning) was saying (tongue in cheek) that he's homesick apparently and wants to come home.

Almost a ready made CHF with a few pre-seasons under his belt. And at worst if we/he couldn't straighten up sufficiently i'd still love to have that contested marking skill and run off the half back line. Maybe our version of Scarlett! :wub:

Yes please for mine.

Butcher today vs dogs.. 6 kicks, 5 marks for 6 goals.. now thats efficiency :)

Gary Lyon made mention of his effort last week on footy classified. So I bet he will be making sure we make a play for him to come to the Dee's. I truely believe he's worth getting.

Looks like hes working on his kicking lol.

Reasonable effort 6 goals from a young bloke who cant kick. Lets not stuff this one if we can get him.

Yep. Not bad at all. In a baskett case team too.

It's early days, but i think his asking price just increased a little.

As the MFC stated at the start of this year (it's major catch cry for all things FD/MFC).......

WHATEVER IT TAKES!!!

I'm sure a team at the foot of the ladder will be dying to offload a player whose shown more promise in two games than the rest of their forward line combined this year. Primus may as well start packing his bags now for him and giving him directions to get to Aami Park.

We didn't really want to offload Scotty Thompson of the Wizard either.

Sh!t happens! :P

I actually think he morally owes port another contract and I hope he stays there.

I think we should see the same moral as GWS use on chasing Scully

and Sydney chasing Sylvia.

The only Moral I want to hear about around the MFC is the one that wins games.

The rest can go jump for mine.

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form
