Recruited from: Dandenong Stingrays
Style:
Player comparison:
Range: Late - undrafted

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.

Post 125 on 24/11/13 @ 11:13am I think it was.

Mentioned 6 midfiedlers to take with Pick 38, of which Harmes was one.

Not quite 40 or 50......

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.

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.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
