He has publicly said he wants to return to Vic one day, Neil Craig was somewhat of a mentor/father figure to him In Adelaide. I say we have a crack at him? Quality player...

He would provide good tackling training.

I'm sure he signed on for another 3 years???

I'm not 100% but I'm fairly sure he's got a year left on his contract.

Contracted until end of 2012.

contracts mean nothing in this day and age. if we've got the cash. get him. he's a gamebreaker.

Disagree, he is a vanilla midfielder who averages less than 17 disposals per game, and looks flashy at times,

In saying this he has potential and i would take him at the right price, no more than a mid first rounder, nothing lower than 10

Exactly, he has the body already growing, he has the endeavor already exhibited, and he has the X factor with his power run - take it on mentality.

About 6' 2" I think?

Handy burst through type Mid.

I believe you are correct.And like all posts already state- a great advantage having Craig available to grab him next year.

I like the way he plays, but I would want them to do some major medical testing first. He's had an alarming number of concussions for such a young player and they are known to have a cumulative effect. He stands a very good chance of being forced into early retirement if a decent medical staff get their hands on him.

You can trade with 1 Yr of contract? Yes?

Who have we got surplus, that they need?

And I'm sure you're the kind of supporter who rates everyone on our list and thinks that they all have the potential to become

'stars'.

Dangerfield is better than 3/4's of our list when fully fit and uninjured.

Sorry to upset you Dangerfield is half Judd half Chuck Norris, feeling better now?

I actually said he can play, just isnt a "Game breaker" and in my opinion effect games often enough,

He has speed, and goes reasonable hard ta the ball, but 17 possessions a game from a soon to be 22 year old doesnt seem enough from a player who people such as yourself laud all the time

similar player to col sylvya i reckon....

Would take him every day of the week if a reasonable trade was arranged.

17 possessions is not huge, but the way he attacks the ball and could possibly break open games, I can see the promise.

I know promise is not everything but I think he has more upside than many on our list.

I agree with you, but @ 22, he has the guns to go. He looks to have the desire & wherewithall.

His stats are a little inferior to Boaks but is Younger. Gaff has good stats.

Has not really stepped up to be a true midfielder, but is anything but vanilla.

I'd grab him if we could (although unlikely) because he really has the potential to be a game breaking midfielder. Just has raw power, which is priceless as the game becomes more congested.

Posted

Don't know how much credibility Jack Watts has in his naked body suit, but he did say he spoke to Dangerfield today about Neil Craig and 'he's very excited'.

Posted

Got to be honest, I couldn't take my eyes off Trengove. Wow, he owned the [censored] out of that stage, and those (albeit fake) tatts really done it for me! :P

Wonder if Dangerfield was "very excited" for Craig, or excited at the prospect of possibly being coached by him again?....

Chase him HARD at the end of 2012. I see him as a Dustin Martin with a softer head.

Yes he is far from Vanilla, although i dont think he is a "game breaker"

Wouldnt be against trading for him because he is very good, or will be. I just dont go for all his hype

    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.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
