A bit optimistic I think.

Also, I wouldn't trust MS to know our list all that well. Pretty well stocked in those areas he's trying to break into.

After slotting Hogan, Garlett and Pedo/Weid into the forward line, Hannan would be competing with Watts, Petracca, Vanderberg, Harmes, Kennedy, Kent, Kennedy-Harris, Bugg, Trengove, maybe even someone like Brayshaw, Melksham or Vince who are squeezed out of the middle.

Just can't see it happening.

 

Idiot savant or just plain idiot..?

Played some footy with the fella at Bernard's, quiet type but a really nice bloke.  Was far and away best on in the grand final 2 years back, just had the ball on a string. His kicking is solid,

Club expected him to go top 5 so imagine their surprise when he was available at pick 47.

I'll admit his inclusion surprised me, but given that we have a few underdone players his inclusion makes enough sense.

I wish him well. Wagner and VandenBerg in previous years came out of nowhere after being mature age recruits so hopefully Mitch can continue the tradition.

I am quietly confident that between Hannan and Hunt, the Saints supporters ? will traipse out of Docklands today scratching their heads! :lol:

One player im reeeally looking forward to tonight. He will add a whole new dynamic to our forward line with his speed and X factor. Hopefully he doesn't get overwhelmed by the occasion and settles in quickly.

You would have been happy his game, dazzle.  Some x-factor and a good user of the ball.

No he won't. And a totally differnt footballer. We need them both. 

But he was very good today and seemed to thrive in the speed of AFL. Super impressed.

He was white hot during our run in the second and third and was involved in everything.  I'd love to see a breakdown of when he got the majority of his disposals, because I'd guess it was through that period.

I thought at selection that he was warming the seat for Kent, but has now added some serious competition for that part of the ground.

He's a very unique footballer. I could count the number of left footers who are comfortable using their right with one hand and that's league wide. Hannan doesn't give a [censored] what side he's on.

WTF has Brayshaw got to do with Hannan ?

They played in the same team once.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
