If ever I was concerned about a players ability and future it wasn't Salem. I don't see a nice kid like (name redacted) who talks the talk but doesn't deliver.

We need footballers and that's what I see in Salem.

Christian Salem has had the misfortune of being drafted into one of the worst teams of the last 2 decades He was seriously ill (losing almost 10 kgs) which severely impacted his preseason, his first

This site has hit a new low. Firstly, he had absolutely no preseason. Secondly, Salem is a midfielder, not a deep forward pocket player. When he develops the engine (remember, he missed the preseaso

Bit pathetic that thread has been started, having a go at a kid who' is about 5 1/2 minutes into his career. If you wanna single out players have a look at the ones who have been around 6 or more yea

The culture of this club of expecting first year players to be impacting regularly week after week is a significant factor in why we're stagnant on the bottom. That's how it's damaging.

You said he needs to do more. No, he doesn't. Grimes, Garland, Howe, Frawley, Jamar, Watts, they 'need' to do more. Salem is a first year player. They don't 'need' to do anything other than show a future, and that's exactly what Salem has done. He has shown an appetite for the contest, a willingness to work hard, and skill with ball in hand.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion but you should be prepared to be called out on it, especially when it's as bad as this one.

he's been been way better than watts or Sylvia in their first year.

Sorry Moon but technically you are never the winner until the siren has blown to signify full time.

And even then sometimes not .. remember the game where we didn't tank, and were ahead when the siren blew but lost the game? Pedants R Us ... :blink:

The thing I love about Salem (besides his sublime skills) is that he has put his body on the line multiple times and he has backed into packs multiple times

he is tough and has no fear, also when he tackles he tackles hard

His balance is amazing too

He is a great all around player, who lacks AFL fitness and thats understandable at this stage

    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.

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
