I hate these fluff pieces.  I almost mark that player down for a shocker.  Who gives a stuff if he went to Luna park?

 I like that he got a rocket from Grimes and McCartney and turned himself around, though.

Same here - a double page spread with pics usually guarantees the subject will stink up the joint that day

Unless he is a genuine superstar. These fluff pieces always expose the pretenders. I'm more worried that it may be an injury causing curse

Almost as bad as winning the Brownlow before you play a stinker in the GF following Saturday. That's a lay down misere.

Its so easy to forget that Hunt, CP and Oliver (our three most likely elite in my view) have played just over a combined 50 games. The sky is the limit for all three of them.

Ummmm Hogan..!? 

Did you see the stats comparing best forwards after 29 games in HS?

He should be on one of the back flanks in the AA team.

Carlon fans are pushing for that Docherty guy to get in. Give me Hunt any day.

On this basis Salem's in for a shocker too

I think the wider footy community is starting to twig onto the fact we've got a good number of kids that can seriously play. 

Will be a good day when they're all firing together. ???

Waiting still.

Liked him forward today. He's strong overhead,  and a decent size.  Could he play centre half forward more regularly?

What was the actual headline please, so I can google the article?

Stopped the Dorks kicking it to Hodge. BTW did you see Hodge punch him twice in the shoulder he hurt? That was just before Hodge slammed him to the ground after he took the mark....

Someone should take Hodge out. He's an animal. Will never forget crunching Wingard's (I think it was) head into the goalpost with his hip...

Great potential, wheels and certain skills but kicking remains a problem. 

Along with so many.

He wastes many kicks going inside 50 that should at the very least be to the advantage of a forward target.

The part about the owls was a bit cringe worthy

It's happened to me before.

I'm much wiser for the experience.

    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
