Sydney have this tradition of applauding every time one of their debutantes gets a possession. I like it. I don't know how long they've been doing it, but it's great reinforcement and a nice touch.

    Great news! And to think all the rookie list players have all debuted except King.

    This is a major testimont to Jason Taylor and his crew!

    I hope he hasn't just been selected based on the colour of his name.

    I noticed Freo doing it as well last week each time Langdon got the ball

    All first year players other than Petracca.

    Or a further kick in the nuts to our previous recruitement.

    Actually, I think I might be confusing Sydney with Freo.

    That'll do for a start!

    Hope he's as good as the last White that played for Dees, or better still as good as the last Wight to play for the Dees

    Terlich. Thank god.

    So that three year deal was a winner then?

    I like what I've seen of this kid so far. Something about him has me excited. Captain and best and fairest winner at the stingrays last year. Of course, has a long way to go but if he can make the grade, he and Salem coming off the back flanks for the next decade will be fantastic! Some run, aggression and bullet kicking! Let's hope! I wish him all the best this weekend

    Would go down as easily one of the worst contracts in AFL history. Horrible deal.

    Contests hard and has a lovely left foot.

    That's all I've ever dreamt of. Sounds like a Hawks player.

    Good luck young blood.

    'A long raking left foot kick'. Us oldies will immediately think of the great Stuart Spencer. Sorry, I'm salivating at the thought. But don't get too excited by this post. I reckoned Sam Blease could be our new Bluey Adams but sadly was very wrong. It would be good though to get one out of two right. Here's hoping. Good luck to Mitch.

    Sean Wight was a very underrated player - probably played in the shadow of the great Jimmy, but he was a superb, athletic defender - very attacking and fantastic to watch.

    Well done Mitch. From all reports you have earned the elevation. May you continue the long run of former rookies who have prospered as a Demon.

    Not as excited as me!

    Ok I have rated this bloke for a long while

    Without wishing to put the mozz on

    1 He has a cool head

    2 Silky smooth left footer

    3 Plays taller than is

    4 Shows no fear

    5 Has run and carry

    6 Reads play exceptionally well

    7 Loves sneaking forward to snare a goal!

    Start salivating!

    Wait a minute , Bobby!

    I'm pretty sure Stuart was a right footer!

    Long, raking drop kicks...and stab passes...yes! But not out of the backline..... wasn't he a rover/forward?

    He also was able to take a hanger... I think he took the first hanger I ever saw.

    I'm trying to think of a Demon left footer with long, raking kicks from the backline . Matthew Febey? Surely there are others! Help!!

    One of the finest moustaches the game has ever seen.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
