Really disappointing year I thought. He's got pace and has shown ball winning ability before, just didn't fire a shot this year. He's meant to be a hard working outsider; Ro Bail showed that you don't need heaps of skill to play this role in our side at present.

Last roll of the dice in 2015. I don't think he'll be delisted while contracted but it may at least be considered.

Utter waste of space and really not sure why he was given a new contract last year. Next year would be his fifth year in the system - not sure why he'd suddenly turn it around. I'd rather pay him out and have an additional draftee / rookie / DFA.

Trade for Tutt. Both players have little value so it may be possible. Throw in a late pick if required.

He's not up to it delist him. I can't believe he has a contract.

Yep.....Just like Dunn, Pederson ect.....Players can improve....He has a year to prove himself....

Has been in the sick bay for so long but he has pace and a reasonable kick .Can see him doing ok at the feet of a tall.

Another recent player who was a prolific ballwinner on debut, got injured and never came remotely close to firing any bullets on comeback. He came from the west so might be amenable to transferring back in a low level trade.

Same boat as Nicho for me, except Nicho didn't have a contract. Will probably remain on the list until the end of his contract, doubt he will add to his games tally in 2015.

Clogger...need to dee-clog !!

I had a good vibe about him at the end of last year. His back issues were sorted, he got on the park and played a little bit of decent footy, I thought he could come on strong.

D'oh!

Posted

He's got another year. Can you remember the last time anybody got paid out for a year?

Shame. He was another in the long line of 50/50s that went the wrong way when the time came to really step it up development wise.

I felt a bit the same. It's not as though he doesn't have ability. But for whatever reason it seems he sets a new world record for Out on the Full whenever he plays in the seniors

I thought 2014 was going to be his year under ROOS.

How wrong I was.

If we can get a suitable trade, do it.

Posted

i had faith, however his 2014 has been a real shame and i wouldn't be surprised if his contract was broken.
he has some good attributes, but if he can't put it together on game day then thats too bad.

Trade? No-one is going to give up a draft pick or player for a kid they could probably get with the last pick in the rookie draft.

There will players that automatically get delisted and or traded

There will be those in the ?-basket. Some will be left on the list for the time being as they may add to a trade etc or someone might surprisingly have some interest etc etc.

For these players it will all depend how the rest of the trading and drafting goes ( or expected to go ) .

They''ll be retained til they dont need to be. I suspect Evans is one such player. I wouldnt go getting any big mortgages just atm if I were he !!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
