MFC players you're most looking forward to watch in 2012

Featured Replies

Just thought I'd see what players everybody is most looking forward to see play in 2012. New players getting out on the park, developing players getting more games, older players re-igniting their careers etc.. Grimes- just to see JG play a full season injury free and develop into the player and leader we all know he has the potential to be.

Watts- #1 draft pick that still has a lot more development to go, like what I've seen so far but I know he will get a lot better.

Jurrah- LJ has great X factor and when he is electric to watch. Now that we might actually have some structure and he has some support we might see Liam take it to another level. Here's hoping.

Jones- We all know he's one of the fittest SOB's on our list and he has no problem finding the pill but his disposal could be a bit better, I think this year with better options in front of him chunk might surprise a few.

Moloney/Jamar- The ruck combo of these two guys when they're on is just awesome to watch and gives us first use of the ball.

Who do you most want to see play in the new look demons?

 

Mitch Clark and Magner.

Although I'm most interested to see how the team performs as a group and how well they can implement Neeld's game plan. I hope it works better than in 2008 when the group struggled to adopt the handball dominated approach implemented by Bailey!

I want to see Bate play in the middle.

I want to see if Grimes can play in the middle and stay uninjured for most of the season.

I want to see most players playing in the positions they have trained for in the pre-season and aren't constantly moved to different positions to fill holes.

I want to see Bennell weave some magic.

After the rocket from Neeld, I'm looking forward to seeing how Davey and Watts take up the challenge. Also looking forward to seeing how the revamped forward line performs as well as Bennell down back... I get the feeling he will have a breakout year. I also look forward to the continued Rise and Rise of Nathan Jones.


Howe

 

Looking forward to see how big Mitch goes up front with the big 11 on the back!

I would like to see Grimes play all year in any position.

I was not going to mention him till Aprill but good luck with item no.4


I would like to see Cook play 5 good games for Casey

After todays training I'm salivating at the prospect of Mitch Clark Clunking them allday !!

I'm looking forward to Green & Davey playing good footy and proving the doubters wrong - both quality players and both will benifit from a playing in a more structured side

Im looking forward to seeing Trengove further stake his claims as a future A grader

Looking forward to seeing Mitch Clark play in the red and blue, and seeing is Sellar was a punt worth taking?


I'm really looking forward to see Tommy McD. His preseason so far has been brilliant.

Also Nicho is just burning on the track.

A good list there Demon WA.

If Green and Davey have good years things will improve considerably.

the guy with the most pressure on him this year is Mitch Clark. Wearing number 11 on his back has done it for him and i really hope he can handle it, and for this reason he is the one i will be keeping a close eye on

Jack Watts will be the surprise package of 2012. I'm very hopeful that with the new culture Neeld and Co are fostering at MFC the likes of JW and the other young blokes with heaps of potential, will finally start coming of age.

Also, I have a strange feeling that Magner will get a fair bit of game time this year. He will be the wrecking ball at clearances we so badly need.


I'm a big Col Sylvia fan, I just want him to have a good consistant year with 5-10 games like he played against Richmond(with out getting reported) last season and like he played against Hawthorn the year before. He can be our big midfield gun in 2012

Watts, Blease, Clark, Jurrah, Tapscott, Grimes, Trengove, Howe, Mckenzie and many more.

Very interested to see how Davey and Green respond.

mckenzie, tommy mc and howe...

very excited about what the medium forwards (petterd, jurrah and co.) can do around the lynch-pins of clark and watts.

gysberts to see how far along he has developed

Aaron Davey returning to his early career form, Jack Watts having a standout year and Jamie Bennell playing consistent, classy footy all year. I will watch Mitch Clark with great interest.

Without doubt, Liam Jurrah. Clearly it takes all types and styles to have a successful team and that is what we all want.

I know a lot of you guys might like to watch the workhorse V8s on the track, but for me I prefer the F1 Ferrari! Players like Liam are why our game is so magnificent.

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
