Just had a listen to Captain Jack's 3AW interview, The boys just seem so much happier and more relaxed. It certainly looks that way a training.

I agree with Gerard Healy's comments introducing Jack that he played a great game on Friday against the Tiges. His defensive work was first class as was his run out of defence. He seemed to be moving freeer that in the past and had more zip about him than I remember.

This may be the year we see what this young man can do, I certainly hope so.

I liked his game also. His ability to think his way out of trouble is top notch and i love that Roos has him back where he plays his best footy.

Good interview, sounds pretty relaxed and very positive. Talked about the game plan and it seems that the players get what Roos is after. Said Roos had taught it to them in blocks.

Also was asked about trenners and says he is fresh and in great space.

I'm loving how positive everyone at the club sounds. I'm feeling the love!

I thought his run from defence was great, especially through the centre square early on and delivering inside 50. I don't remember him being so quick!

Big year ahead I hope

 

Yes, Jack is a beauty! Just hope his body continues to hold up so that he can strut his stuff. He's had a horror run with injury. Would be so nice if that could all be behind him.

I have been saving for two years he is a great Half Back.

Not a Mid fielder, I know we had no one but he was crucified in that role.

If they leave him at HB there is a lot more of that to come in 2014

Agree OD. Love him running out of defence. Hope he can play a full season though - he's had some shitfull injury probs.

If most improved is the difference between last year and this years impact excluding injury or first year at Dees then Trengove and Strauss for me.

should be healthy competition for the small defender/half back with Strauss, Terlich and Clisby

Don't get me wrong I love Grimesy and have everything crossed that he has an awesome season. But his clangers and turnovers are holding him back from being the elite player he should be. I just hope, hope, hope he can grow out of them.

It's interesting that we got him at pick 14 because of his back problems and without them he was touted as a top 4 pick. It looked like a steal if he could come good physically. It looks like he has come good, I'm really looking forward to seeing the pick 4 performance we are hoping to get from him.

2014 All Australian half backl

I'm with you.

Love lots about his game - just needs to tidy up his finish.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
