185cm, with speed. We can see the trend. Looks like a bit of a project, numbers are magical, but enough there that obviously we think he's worth it.

Projects to be a big bodied midfielder/utility once he he fills out. Good in close and feeding the ball out - constructive and creative handball ability. More of a handball first guy.

He's a great young fella and his old man is a keen Dees fan! From Devon Meadows JFC originally, where my young bloke plays. Had a good year at the Rays, wins his own ball and distributes pretty well in traffic. Was looked at to go late in the National Draft.

Any relation to Wayne? And by association Norm Smith..?

Looks good in his video on the AFL website, although it is short.

Exactly as advertised - quick hard attack on the footy, good size.

I mentioned this guy in the name your rookie prospects thread as a mid I was keen on along with about 4 or 5 others.

Good pace and good agression and he'll put heat on the likes of Bail & Tapscott no doubt.

Moves like Paul Kelly.

Disclaimer: I never said he was as good, would captain his team or win a brownlow.

Good little story on him and he seems pretty confident and motivated to make a career for himself. Best of luck to him, and good to see he's a local from the Casey area also.

Would have rathered someone else like Battersby, Templeton or Cavarra, but you don't win them all.

Hopefully he goes well for us.

All the best Harmes.

So basically anyone you'd already heard of on bigfooty, or seen on TAC Cup FutureStars, we get it.

It is much better a player like Harmes who really wants to play for us than a kid who is always looking to swap across to the team that he supported at school.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
