Just announced that Addam Maric has been offered an opportunity to train with Tigers.

Interesting to note that seven clubs have applied to the AFL for permission for players to train.

MFC are not one of the seven.

AFL clubs give delisted players opportunity to train before draft.

I think you are spot on however it was thought he would go to North at draft time. Tigers may end up at having two Marics come start of season time.

Reckon its probably good to start just with the players already listed - get those boys going, then bring in the "permission to train" players a few weeks later when the players already on our list are flying. It'd better show the unlisted players exactly what they need to do to possibly earn a spot.

With Maric its probably different because he has been around before and knows what preseason is all about.

When are the lists officially lodged/released? Every monday/tuesday?

Maric did mention in a puff-piece article on the weekend this year was the first year he did a full pre-season, so I guess this would make it only his second full go at it.

Hard to believe he is still only 21! Good luck to everyones favorite emo if he gets a go somewhere else, I can just see the blurb now "The best pure kicker in the draft", "A solution to our teams crumbing needs" etc etc.

Forgot to also mention that Beau Dowler ex Hawk is training with the Saints.

They off load Nason & then look interested in Maric? Interesting.....

You raise a valid point. Nason in his initial year showed pace and accuracy.I also thought they had enough small forwards. Training doesn't guarantee a listing though!

Posted

Danny Hughes at Saints. Assume it's the same one we had.

What? Our former Full Back? LOL

Posted

Brad Miller gets another year at the Tigers.

Is this hindering the development of one of their young KP players?

I personally don't see the purpose in giving him another year.

Posted

What? Our former Full Back? LOL

Nah the rookie small/medium forward we delisted last year. Debuted in the WB 'pink' friday night game.

Maric has the scope for midfield or half forward flank, i wouldnt call him a small forward at all

Played for us, linked to North, training with Richmond. He's certainly not one for hanging around positive, winning atmospheres. No wonder he's so glum all the time.

    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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
