From one of the threads:

James Harmes (VIC Mid)
Height: 184cm, Weight: 78kg, DOB: 05/10/1995
Recruited from: Dandenong Stingrays
Style:
Player comparison:
Range: Late - undrafted
Profile: Harmes is an aggressive midfielder who inside the contest really attacks the ball hard on the inside and will go in for it. Hes got above average pace and can also at times push forward and take a mark.

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.

my very first thought also...not a shabby pedigree if so

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.

Harmes doesn't look like Homer Simpson.

didn't know you were a paul berry fan robbie LOL

anyway when i first saw pic of harmes i immediately thought of beattie (a younger one of course)

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.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    TRAINING: Monday 13th January 2025

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
