Easily the most influential player today, love him.

Some people are getting so excited by this win and individuals they like to see do well...

So far i've seen Byrnes as BOG, Frawley played rubbish, and Max gawn most influential. People still not giving Nathan Jones the credit he deserves

Quite the opposite IMO. Having another big ruckman yesterday highlighted to me that Jamar has been going against two ruckmen each week, and that he simply can't do that anymore. With another ruckman

Max Gawn showed glimpses of his true potential today. What i really like about him, he is 6'9", but chases and contests like a mid fielder, and when he rests in the square, he is such as presence, tha

I love that mark where he held off the two blokes on either side of him then marked the ball, turned around, ran into the goals and nailed it. Pure arrogance. If he can stay fit he'll be an absolute

Maxy was very good wasnt he..I thought he was in real trouble after his last injury but I'm glad hes got on the park to play like he did.

Lets see how he goes against a luenberger or the likes before we get to excited but yes very promising game.

Until Jamar is match fit and over his leg injury leave big max in the ruck and rest Jamar elsewhere around the ground maybe when required..

Jamar is still the best ruck we have IMO. Just isnt 100% fit yet.

Thing is Jones always plays to a high level and we all appreciate it, others get the supporters a little excited cos its something new or good form coming back. Jones will have the Bluey wrapped up in 6 weeks time.

He's 110+ kgs and around 210cms, when you get up to that immense size (Sandilands and Bogut the only examples I can think of) injuries happen easily. I pray he stays fit because he could help us get back up that damn ladder.

That was awesome, Moses parting the Red Sea. Those arms pushing out.

It's a very pleasing start to the season for Max.

Jamar is usually poor, yesterday not so much. Getting better. However The Russian palmed only 19% of his taps to advantage. Most of the other big men around the ground had around the 30% mark*.A good ruckman will get 40% +

Unless Jamar marks the ball more, increases his taps to advantage and has a presence around the forward line, his days are numbered. For a big man of his skill and experience, he just doesn't do enough. Spencer has less class than Jamar, but gives so much more effort. And now we are seeing what Max is capable of.

God I hope his knees hold up.

Edit. *From herald sun stats, so may not be correct.

Very encouraging - I don't quite share some of the exictement here and will wait until he grabs 3-4 big scalps before joining many of you. I figure he will get a lot of physical attention in the near future and will be interested to see the response.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
