Wonder if we ll take a look at Oscar Mcdonald, Toms brother. Could be good to have some siblings in the team.

Interesting article in that it mentions Lucas Cook amongst the goal scores.
 
 

Oscar Mcdonald is a rookie chance. I think he will develop like his brother. Similar types.

Hopefully he can kick

Hopefully he can kick

He is rated as a better kick than his brother. Prefers to play forward but can play either end. Competitive kid with a really good head on his shoulders.

Would think that we would be having a good look at Oscar, as we have with all the draft hopefuls. Would be great to see the brothers tear it up for years to come at the Dees.

Biggest issue at the moment is that he will need around 10kgs to mix it with hulking forwards of AFL. Will spend the first year in the VFL if selected until he builds on the muscle.


does anyone thin we are actually a legitimate shot to get Jeremy Cameron or that hes possibly already agreed to a deal with us?

I know we all want it to be true and that his season ending injury helps to fuel the rumours as does the fact we have a shitload of salary cap $$$ to play with, but what are the chances realistically

with Judd possibly retiring, Cameron would be chased by many clubs, including the blues. And I have the feeling that MnM is pushing Judd out. MnM is trying to stamp his own image over that club.

Cameron would be high on his list.

will they gazump us again?

 

After watching the crap we served up yesterday I am hoping we now get Ryan O Keefe

He will be an upgrade on at least 20 of the spuds on our list even if he is almost 34

Hope we get Malceski more though, but would love both

He's still twice the player watts is on his better days.

I remember thinking O'Keefe was the best player in the competition. Guys I seriously reckon he can do a Boomer Harvey. I've heard he lives an extremely healthy lifestyle and is determined to keep playing AFL. Maybe we could get 3 good years off him despite him turning 34 next year.


Hopefully, we have Salem, Toumpas and Trengrove coming back with another pre-season under Roos and committed to proving to Demonlanders why they were all top ten draft picks! (Maybe also Watts with something to prove?)

Really excited about Salem, he's really shown how smart he is. Far less excited about Toumpas and Tregrove. Wouldn't be sad if they were traded.

Yeah don't hold your breath for 3 years on that one.

If Oscar Mac can play both back and forward, kick better then Tmac and has a similair tank then he would definetely be worth adding to the rookie list.

Spoke to Salem's brother the other day. Asked him if he still barracks for Essendon, he said the whole family are Dees supporters now.

He's an extremely impressive young man Christian

We should get a couple good years, O'Keefe isn't even nearly done.

He'll help our kids. Hopefully we land him, does the 1% plays.

This brings me great joy.

I would be very surprised if Roos goes after anybody over 30 this year, he still has Cross and Vince, we need guys in their early 20's to grow for 2 years under Roos

I'd be keen to get Jake Best from the scorpions into the club with a late or rookie pick.

He always seems to be one of the scorpions better performers and knows how to kick a goal.

I was hoping we picked him up last year.

I would be very surprised if Roos goes after anybody over 30 this year, he still has Cross and Vince, we need guys in their early 20's to grow for 2 years under Roos

On the flip side of that we still need an extra player or two around that range who can work with Cross and Vince to model the right training habits, work ethic on the field and to impart some knowledge on them as well. Sounds a bit cliche but we still lack those types of players at the minute. We would need to be very strategic about who it is we might get and how we get them but I don't think Roos will totally ignore players around that age range.

At his best, O'Keefe is a level above Cross - who has been one of our better players this year.

Ryan O'Keefe was a level above Vince and probably still is.

He'd be a good pick up.

Again, although I was proved wrong with Cross, why is O'Keefe not getting a game with the Swans, they even brought in Membery? for Franklin at the weekend

I think we are past that, if you listen to Roos' presser this morning, there are players who are not listening, I don't think there is a need for another old wisehead, personally I hope whoever we bring in is under 25

Speaking of 30+ recruits, Malceski to Melbourne seems to be gaining traction.

 

What have you heard chaser?

Brett Anderson tweeting the mail is that Malceski to Demons is a near certainty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
