Urgh. MFCSS at its finest. How could the Tyson, Salem and Hunt deal possibly only be seen as a shocker or break even?

Tyson is a cusp A grader (certainly B+ at the moment), despite some of the crap I read on here; Salem will be A grade if his form and development continues; and Hunt could be absolutely anything. He's a B+ grader currently.

Versus Kelly. Who this year is playing A grade football. 

In fact, I'd argue that the deal will either be seen as break even or we're well, well, well ahead.

Tyson on the cusp of being an A grader? That would mean 70% of our list (and most other lists) contain A Graders.

Tyson is C+ if we want to look at where we really are

he has guts but he is nowhere near A Grade

Spot on! Not sure how someone can be 'on the cusp of being an A grader' when they get all their possessions on the outside and make more clangers than most other players each week. In all fairness he will be one of those good generally best 22 players that will play 200+ games, but never be in that top dozen.

Just out of interest, why does one getting all their possessions on the outside stop them being an A-grader?

We don't need every single midfielder to be a contested ball freak and none of them to be any good in uncontested link-up play.

I also dispute the proposition that Tyson "gets all his possessions on the outside" but that's a different story.

FWIW, Tyson's just an average player IMO. B-grade at his best.

One trick pony. Immediately turned it over after his first mark and almost did it again with the next.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
