Who will be the next Demon to become a fan favourite by becoming the most improved.???

 

Neville Jetta

Trengove will go to another level

 

the guys who do well in the early time trials always tend to set themselves up for big seasons.

expect big things from tommy mac, nicho, trenners and magner

Like what this guy did?

My top 5.

1. Jack Trengove

2. Colin Sylvia

3. Tom Mcdonald again

4. Jack Watts

5. Dan Nicholson

Would love fitzpatrick to push for pedrtsons spot

Bail should come on, most of his game is there just needs to start hitting targets

I agree about Fitzpatrick. At 202cm and 100kg I cannot see why he isn't the potential power-forward of the comp. Let Pederson stay in the backline to cover Rivers' former role and provide back-up to Watts, Frawley, Garland and McDonald.

Strauss, Tapscott and McKenzie.

With a good preseason and some faith from the coaches I can see Strauss solidifying a best 22 spot. Tapscott played a few good games in fits and spurts but if his fitness comes up to the mark then he'll start to show us how dangerous he can be with his aggression and kicking. Lastly McKenzie with a preseason (touch wood) could take his game from decent tagger to top level shut down player who can also win the ball. Jordie might never be the best kick or a 30 touches guy but he's as tough as anyone in close so I see no reason why he can't add contested ball winning to his game.

Don't get carried away about Nicholson he's always been a great runner but if he can't improve his kicking or his decision making then he won't make it as a player.

And Fitzpatrick is so far off AFL standard as big forward, sorry guys. His really mobile so in a way he can play a tall forward pocket role and try and get a mismatch and then provide back up in the ruck but he doesn't have the experience or natural body work to be a key forward target. What I hope for Fitzpatrick is that he keeps working on his ruck work so that he has that area up to scratch and that he can play a lot of VFL as a tall forward target and improve his strong marking ability. At the moment any good defender can work him off the ball. He kicks a lot of goals in the VFL because of his mobility rather than his physical presence. With the clean out the Casey VFL forward line at this stage really is Fitzpatrick and Hogan with big Spencer and Gawn sharing ruck so I hope he can prove me wrong and come on a lot quicker.

Well picked about Gawn and Spencer honing their ruck skills in the VFL with Hogan and Fitzpatrick as key forwards, however it would be good to see the Scorpions doing better than minor premiers or runners-up as i am sick of seeing them get bundled out of the finals so esily in straight sets!


Michael Evans if he gets some games, which I think he will in the second half of the season when other midfielders are rested.

of our new recruits, the two i think that will improve the most are dawes (playing where he should be) and Pedersen as he will actually be playing games.

Of the players already on our list i think Sylvia will improve again, he was beggining to show signs of consistency during the year and that was after he had fractured his back! Mitch clark should also have an improved year, but only because he may play out the whole season, i don't think he could improve too much on his season this year when he actually played.

Edited by young dee enthusiast

Rory Taggert could give it a good dip, if he can get his body right!

Jack watts will have a year which makes us realize why he was a number one draft pick.

Tapscott will cement his spot In the side also.

Would love to see big seasons from Strauss, Jetta and Evans

Dawes will suprise a lot of people.

Davey is my smoky from biggest improver, he's coming from far enough back whilst his best is so good, that there is scope for one of the biggest improvements of all time.

I agree, I reckon in a similar way Clark has surprised everyone this year. People scoffed when we gave up pick 12 for him but Neeld and co clearly could see the ability and attitude that he is displaying now. Being played out of position at Brisbane was a big factor in his improvement at the MFC too.

Dawes is a very similar situation - has the ability (I believe), from all reports a great attitude and was played out of position at Collingwood the last one or two seasons - can't wait to see him tear it up in the red and blue.

That's cheating.

He only has to get on the park once.

would love to be able to type Bail or Tapscott with confidence but don't think it will happen for either

my tip is Blease

 

My list goes:

Sylvia/Taggert/Evans/T.Mac

  • 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.
