Wine(s) harvest

Recommended Posts

Happy to have Toumpas - he will be a player.

If we had Wines I doubt we would have gone after Tyson. I would rather have Tyson than Wines.

Yes interesting take, Tyson for Wines. In an ideal world I would rather have them both. Tyson "Pure Class" Wines "Pure Grunt"

Hnmm that's got me thinking!?

Mods might be time to lock this thread early! Too many bruised egos and blanched almonds!

Amazing, you try to start an intelligent convo and everyone not only Jumps to conclusions, but provides scope for mass prescriptions of Valium!!

Amazing reaction!

Your disappointed and want the thread locked because everyone got you. You thought of trying to take the pizz and get everyone riled, but we cottoned on too quick for you. You poor misguided fool.

Toumpas was a poor pick, but i trust the current regime won't make those mistakes again judging on the how they worked pick 2 last year.

Wines would have been handy. Toumpas isn't in his league which is a shame for such a high draft pick.

The current regime would have picked the same guy, eg picked Salem over other, more hardened bodies. Wines is a good player, but I would lay you 10:1 that Jack would be better in that Port side.

I'm fine sweet cheeks, you? How's Mumma's milk?

A great pity you stoop to this level Sambo! My Mum is in very poor health!

If I were Roosy I think it time to play a selection of players including Jimmy Toumpas and consider Luke Tapscott, definitely Sam Blease and maybe one or two others to see if they are capable of playing the way he intends!

If there's anything we should take from Roos this year re: the Casey players, it's that he will not give games to those who don't earn them.

Tapscott has not earned his spot in the side. If that means he doesn't get a game this year, that's an indication of where his career's at. Same deal with Evans, Nicholson and Strauss. Blease seems to be improving but I'm not sure his defensive work is at Roos' standard.

It's one thing to want to see what they can do, but if they're not doing anything at VFL level it's not right to drop players who earned their spot in the AFL side to make way for them.

Comparisons are odious but should acknowledge how good Wines has been during his first 2 years. Most young players tire and can't maintain consistency but He just keeps rolling along and hasn't yet had a below par performance that I'm ware of. Amazing effort.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
