Roos likes tough players who take no backward steps. Freeman is a raging bull.

I know it doesn't have the alliteration value of Rhino Richards but if Nathan is delivered to us, and he proves to be the irrepressible force he is supposed to be can we call him Rhino anyway? Always loved the physicality of the original

    To me he looks like a Brent Moloney with better pace and ability to follow up (better workrate and fitness) which is what Moloney lacked to become a great midfielder.

    A friend of mine who was playing TAC with Chargers said Freeman was one of the best players he'd seen and a really nice bloke (although not much between the ears apparently)

    Ability to become a Dangerfield or Shuey. Opposite end of the spectrum would be a stronger Blease. Lets hope its the former if he ends up in the red and blue :)

    From what I hear, neither does he have the disruptive personality. That would help. I think he would suit the sort of side we are developing perfectly. The explosive pace would be a real bonus too

    I'm getting the feeling that Freeman must be firming for Melbourne's first draft choice.

    I haven't seen Aidan Riley play but he's another recruit who's supposed to be an inside midfielder.

    Sooner or later we are going to take a player who can break the lines with pace. Freeman seems to be the one who can do that.

    I believe these are his correct details for height & weight

    Height: 184cm, Weight: 85kg

    I was under the impression that Freeman plays both inside and out.

    Clear favourite on Demonland (2012 Ollie Wines was the call). Will Demonland get the raging bull Freeman as a ready to play, fast mid that MFC needs.

    (and who our kids can go Wow when he speeds down the MCG wing).

    It now depends on the six Clubs in front of us now (with picks 1 and 8 excluded).

    You can probably exclude a few more as it is pretty certain Kelly, Billings and Kade K. will be gone before 9. I am pretty confident Aish will be as well. That if I am correct is 6/9 picks accounted for. That means that there are two picks that could affect our thinking.

    I see Brisbane and Collingwood as the clubs we are not 100% sure of. Anyway it is all conjecture and draft fun.

    If your information is good enough to declare that Freeman to us is a certainty, then what will you do if this proves to be incorrect?

    Run around the MCG naked

    I'd recommend doing it under the cover of darkness.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
