I have always believed that the superstars of the game have that something extra that lets them rise to the next level when the game is on the line.

I felt exactly the same way seeing Dom Tysons match winning goal on the weekend, since then I am very much of the belief that he will be a genuine superstar

the future is in good hands lads.

I like to use my own player comparisons to see what I think these players could be

Grimes- Enright

Hogan - Pavlich

Viney - Selwood

Tyson - Judd

JKH - Pendelbury ( I know this one is strange but I see the poise and smarts here )

Salem - Jordan lewis

I don't think I have seen enough of Tyson - never seem to spot the kid when he gets the ball.

Viney I think will be a star (wish he was 2-4cms taller).

Think of it this way...his body shape gives him a low centre of gravity which makes it really difficult to knock him over. Leigh Matthews, Peter Daicos, Dane Swan and both Gary Abletts all had or have this attribute. It's a wonderful advantage in a hard, body contact sport.

But I guess the question is, is it a hard, body contact sport? I guess we will know in a little over an hour.

Tyson oozes Pendles, not JKH.

Tyson has all the time in the world, and even when tackled will hold onto the footy and wait to dish it off to another team mate.

Love this kid.

Fully agree. Tyson is Pendlebury like & going to be worth every cent.

Cant say JKH is anything like Pendlebury mould IMO.

Then watch him... Tyson is quality.

Viney's height makes no difference. Jack is low to the ground, in and under, crash and bash.

Crying over cms is ridiculous.

JKH to Pendlebury comparison is crazy. I like the look of JKH but i cant see any comparisons worthy of noting.

Watching Kennedy tonight, I can see why Roos got Tyson. Both not overly quick but very strong in close and good hands.

    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

    Some veteran Demonland Trackwatchers ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you the following observations from another Preseason Training Session. WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
