Hnmm 12th in the Margarey Medal? not bad, not bad!

12th in one of the most overrated competitions in the land. Wish him well, but me thinks he might be your secret love child picket.

Top dozen in the sanfl?

Lets see.

Jamar,Trengove,Tapscott,Toumpas,Terlich,

To name a few from the Southern state that have missed this honour due to our Adelaide centric recruiting.

The Stretch kid better be good.

Even still,Viney is forgiven due to his freakish talent in fathering Todd.

As you have said in the Jones AA thread...... REALITY CHECK!!!

I hope we are NOT one of the clubs interested, However would love him to go somewhere else and play good footy, would put egg on a few faces around here!

This is what makes Demonland such a wonderful place.

You want Juice to succeed - but not at the MFC - so you can stick it up posters ( and probably point out that the club made ANOTHER mistake).

How about suggesting we are one of the clubs interested and hope he makes a go of it at the MFC - wouldn't that make more sense ?

I couldn't give fat rats clacker about Bate , Juice , Jarrah - If there not on our list or are a viable chance of playing AFL next year they may as well be on the moon.

Reality check people - we brought in 3 blokes who either couldn't gat a game or were being overlooked at other clubs who like us were not playing finals and they all took home trophy's last night. To me shows just how shallow the quality of player is on our list and that some in no way should still be on the list.

This will take 3 draft periods of moving on 8-10 players a year IMO

Dad played a round of golf with one of Newtons teachers once while he was on our list. He was described as a guy who could do anything he wanted... Amazing athletic ability with the brain of a surgeon - but lazy. Could be anything but will be nothing because he is too lazy to work for it. I reckon the only reason he stayed on the list so long was because people at the club saw this and hoped one day it would click but it just didn't. Waste of a human by the sounds of it.

Ouch. As a fellow chronic underachiever, I take issue with this. Not everyone needs to be a brownlow-winning brain surgeon/rocket scientist.

NORWOOD into the Grand Final "Juice" 2 goals tonight!

Missing the last 2 Grand Finals through injury, a bit of Luck won't go astray! Go Norwood (SA Version of MFC) ! GF in two weeks!

I love all the posters describing Juice as a spud and a dud. Feel free to post your football resumes...

Toughen up ya kent.

I think Juice would have a thicker skin than to care what anyone on a forum thinks.

Or would you prefer we all be touchy feely and diplomatic? What a wonderful forum that would be.

I'm just not sure how anyone who hasn't played at the level can describe him as a dud. He may not not be up to AFL standard but he has still got the majority of us on here well and truly covered.

I understand your argument however it's a forum and people tend to exaggerate.

He can still be called a dud, we'd just be bigger duds.

Um if you are going to quote facts then you need to get it right!!

Huge hanger followed by 50 metre goal! Just to cap it of.

Also, if you go onto the AFL stats page and actually check his career stats , they measure up surprisingly well for a bloke who is and has been exceptionally maligned on this forum, eg Dud, Spud etc! But don't take my word for it, check the stats out for yourselves. Then if not satisfied well as I have said many times on this forum everyone is entitled to their post!

All I'm saying is the bloke went to S.A after his shot with us, has been cruelled by injury missing the last two Norwood flags, surely not any of you out there would begrudge him a well deserved tilt at Premiership Glory?

Go Norwood and Good luck "Juice"

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
