James Frawley? 4 kicks 5 handballs, 9 possessions. 35 points ranked # 20 (second last) in Hawthorn's list. They must have been golden possies.

Well done Jesse and Bernie!

Credit where it is due Frawley gave Buddy a bath, don't think he even scored a point. First time since 2009. Hogan was even fan voted as the best forward for the week. McCarthy played well I will admit and is Jesse's main competitor in the rising star IMO but I'm still baffled how Hogan didn't get nominated. I know it doesn't mean much but I would have liked for him to get the recognition for a brilliant game. Congrats to Bernie too absolutely destroyed an opponent most rate higher than him. Living in Adelaide I have seen plenty of him over the years but I don't remember this hardness and tenacity at the Crows, even in his B&F year.

Yes people are kidding themselves about Frawley. Sadly he will have a much easier time of it at Hawthorn, less inside 50s to deal with for a start. He's usually drawn even with Franklin or just lost the contest in a team that gets unceremoniously spanked by Hawthorn every game. This is no surprise with a great team around him. Free Agency is ridiculous to say the very least.

Fair enough comment Demonated but Buddy did gain 46 points. Frawley must have done well but surely there were more impressive defenders out there from all teams at the weekend. I certainly agree with you on Vince. He must surely be A grade at his best.

Didn't watch all the games but he was impressive. As for Vince he is certainly close to an A grade talent his best games are very good. Needs to consistently stay involved as he is also our most damaging mid when on no offence to Jones.

yep. i just watched the replay and fitzy was right up there with the best players. his best game ever. think the backline might be his best position, plus it gives us a second tall when we come against the sides with multiple gorilla forwards

No one cares about rising star.

Interesting point. We know that players have been nominated multiple times, could you be nominated every week?

    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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
