Pre-season update: Hogan to Dawes

Featured Replies

Posted

All is looking good for players 1 to 6.

Here is my abridged version.

1: The Hulk hasn't been forced into anything to strenuous so far and the club knows to be patient with his development.

2: Jonesy is continuing to set the standard with his leadership and performance after early foot soreness.

4: Wattsy has had a solid summer so far except for missing a week of training because of sickness and also feeling some leg tightness while in Darwin

5: My soon to be "bro"mance partner Jimmy Toumpas has been eased into the program and showing glimpses of brilliance when he has the ball in his hands.

6: Dawesy has had a few injury concerns early but is set to resume training when everyone returns. He has slotted in fantastically with his leadership and looks to form a formidable forward line partnership with Mitch Clark.

Pre-season update: Hogan to Dawes

 

It's a really exciting group of talent 1-6 and massively important in our future.

Great to see the MFC posting on the first day of the year (and a public holiday). Let us hope that the updates on the team continue right through the off-season. I am starting to get impatient already for 2014 to see Hogan lining up in our forward line with Clark, Dawes and Howe.

Give me a break Rog, I'm in the middle of my school holidays with nothing to do at the moment.

At least he bought our attention to the fact that the MFC is updating the website and still giving us news during the holiday period. It is too easy to forget that it was posted on the Club website on New Year's Day!

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
