Who gets you excited?

Who or what are we most looking foward to next year?

I cant wait for Viney and Dawes and all our new recruits to show there skills I think we will be improvers for sure. But there are 2 players I will keep a very close eye on...

Watts - This could be his year, as a floating half back or attacking wing man I really hope he can explode and turn games on his own.

Gawn - Can the big fella break into the seniors and claim the No. 1 ruck role for good?

yeah yeah get all those out of the way first i suppose...

maybe a year early with the question. i just hope he can get a full quota of games in 2013 uninterrupted.

A full season from the new twin towers up forward in Clark and Dawes.

I'm with you there. Playing every week, and at least 10 times in the senior side would be a win for Gawn.

Gawn tap down to Viney, clearance to Clark then goal.

Repeat all season.

Buy Mrs Choke a wheelchair.

 

Jordie Mac - With a full preseason, and players like Viney, Rodan and Trengove in there, I suspect he will have a good year

Howe - Take things to the next level, and when I say that, not vertically :) but being an important cog in the midfield, and a goal kicking mid.

Dawes - I think he is capable of improving as significantly as Clark did in his first year.

Viney and Toumpas will be exciting to watch, but trying to keep excitement in check for these guys.

Strauss and Terlich are two that I also will be very interested to see how they go.... I get a feeling that these two could slot in on the half back/back pocket, with Watts, Garland, Frawley and Tom Mac making up the back 6. Gives a good amount of height, and rebound, and some good footskills as well.

Finally would love to see if Jones has another gear as well, or whether it is going to be a case of needing a better team around him before he gets mentioned as a potential AA type of player... loved what I saw from him last year.

Ok I think I am done now! :)

I've fallen for this trap before....... i'm saving my excitement for game days...... Viney, Dawes, Hogan, Toumpas? Believe it when I see it......

.........................................................

The new season, the start of a new era, going to games full of confidence, singing the song until I'm hoarse. I could go on, but I'm sure you get my drift.

I really keen to see what Dawes can do and I'm hoping that this year will be a huge one for Jack Watts.

However, my big hope and maybe a surprise for some, is Jake Spencer. Has improved out of site and is very determined.

I will be wrapt if CLark can get back to fitness and play a good season.

Looking fwd to see Neeld's competitive new recruits attack the game.

Want to see us playing like a team. With good comraderie, commitment and high expectations. Healthy competition for spots with reward for effort.

Agree on Spencer's improvement BBO.

Viney and Toumpas have me excited. Looking forward to seeing the midfield function in a positive sense and the delivery up forward so Dawes, Clark can clunk a few.

General Neeld's war on mediocrity

Im excited and looking forwrad to seeing the likes of Barry, and Kent, even Rodan i believe will give us some xcitement.

But i still cant go past Jimmy Toumpas , as a quick goal kicking winger half forward with sublime skills.

Oh...and Viney of course.

I am with Oucher on his views however Howe and Watts are the two who will rise!

 

Mitch Clark and Jack Viney.

We've needed some balls for so long, and I see them as the left and right. I love the types of players that make you proud of your club and walk a little taller on game day.

Supposing we do see improvement overall, I want to see Watts emerge as a gamebreaker. More than anyone else, he's been the target of the sneerers; and so, for us to begin to really command respect, I think that Watts' performances just about have to demand respect first. Unfair, but he's been front and centre since we drafted him. I suspect he'll either be at the centre of our rise or he'll just drift out the side; but if he takes off, we shake off all the crap we've taken in the past so-many years...

Against GWS at the MCG, Watts fending off to gather on the wing and taking a couple of bounces before the perfect cross to Trengove at centre-half-forward, who marked over Scully before goaling - that was a pointed statement about being number one draft pick if ever I saw one, and it got me very excited. I think he's ready for a break-out, and goodness knows he's got the skills if he can impose himself on the game week after week. I want more of this - rub all their faces in it, Jack! It would silence the critics and vindicate the club better than just about anything - providing of course that we are seen to have begun our push up the ladder.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
