I thought he played pretty well on the weekend. few good marks.  will be an important defender for us for years to come

He is improving every week and still he cops it. One day he will hold a big key forward goalless, and people will still say he isnt up to it.

How he stil gets games mystifies me. That lamantable chase down of the ball which cost a goal was droppable for a start! Plus his miserable body on body efforts costing another 2 goals! Beats me!!

Don't worry they will have found another whipping boy by then and will have moved on

Is this guy an AFL standard player? I think not !Anyone else share the same opinion?

Yes he is.  Considering his age, body size, inexperience and the fact hes a KPD he is exceeding expectations already.

Show him some love, PF!     23 possies today in one of our greatest wins.

Was excellent today.

Absolutely!  Was very composed in his play today, and really looked like he belonged.

I still have a couple of queries (as I do with most players), but he has been good the last month or so.

My only knocks are his composure in tight situations and not hitting markings contests as hard as he could.

Every young player has things they need to work on, and as I said, his last month has been good stuff.

This and his speed or lack of, He was good for the most part but should have made more of an impact on Brayshaws (bad) kick.

How you still have energy to have a go at the McDonald brothers mystifies me.

We as fans see short term, win this week, the footy depth have looked at Oscar as long term. Today was reward for that. 

He will have his ups and downs but is looking a lot more comfortable at AFL.

Two good games in a row. OMac is certainly putting his case forward. Classic Roos project player. Tracking better than his brother at this stage.

Picket Fence is Demonland's answer to Benny Hill.

For the second week in a row he played his career best game.

Still needs to develop more confidence when we are in offence - the Stretch goal is a perfect example of that. But defensively he has improved this year and with TMac and Frost, they are starting to gel more down there as a unit.

I've been a big knocker of OMac but today against the top side he did well. Congrats!

He is building consistency and some form.

Looking more comfortable at AFL level.

Much more creative then his brother and doesn't seem to be afraid to push right up to our forward line with run and carry.

Big fan of OMac and it's great to see him going from strength to strength.  For a second year KPD to be playing the way he is, it's fantastic for now and the future.

    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.
