ELECTRIC

The dashing youngster with the shock of blond hair progressed well in 2017. His electric speed and long kicking often allowed him to not only break up lines, but also to greatly unsettle opposing teams.

    Just the type of exciting player footy fans love to watch, someone who keeps the turnstiles clicking over. And a bit of a character to boot (glad we didn't give him the boot a couple of years ago)!!!

    It's  Super...Hunt !!  Able to run faster than a locomotive.( well metro ...not too hard ) .. fly for a mark ( sometimes )  kick further than a Pyongyang missile.

    By day an average guy...on weekends  he dons his favourite headband and takes on all enemies !!

     

    Too much  ??

    Great player. I would be considering him for the wing.

    Seemed to have a quieter second half to the season but then again so did most of the team. IIRC some teams were tagging him which may have limited his impact.

    Will be interesting to see how he goes with Lever in the team.

    Became our only 'creator' and teams shut him down and us in the second half of the year.

    Really good player though, has trouble hitting spot up kicks but with Hogan up the ground next year will have more room to work with.

    Normally attention to one member of a team releases others...we didnt quite take advantage of that...over to you Simon  ;)

    plays a very high back flank...not much of an ask to get a bit jiggy in the middle. Suspect this will happen esp with Lever coming in...and others....umm...out

    I hate it when he kicks goals.

    9 out of his 10 career goals have come in losses. Infact the only time he kicked a goal in a win was in that famous Hawthorn win of 2016.

    Fast becoming, if not already, my favourite player.  Love the way he goes about it- tough, exciting and damaging.

    Started the year in amazing form, but stuttered a bit following the concussion in Adelaide.

    Key component to out team going forward in the future.

    Needs to learn to down gear from 5th to 3rd when he gets himself clear at times.  This will help with his vision and ability to hit targets. 

    Confident that he will learn to do that.

    Think he's started to do that already.

    Well, well, well...isn’t this kid a bit spesh

    Love his run and carry, his intensity, he doesn’t mind a tackle and his spot up kicking is getting better all the time

    He’s a smart player and will hopefully continue to become an absolute vital part of our side

    He’s so important to us in the way he launches that springboard style that we like to play

    He’s actually a better defender than Hibberd in my view, so I don’t mind him continuing to be more of a back flanker where Hibberd plays slightly higher

    They certainly complement each other nicely

    License to thrill!!!

    Loving the noise coming from the Members wing when he gets it and goes.

    They should give him a licence to do that into the 50 more - I would bet Garlett would get to the footy first.

    He does play wing at times, half back at times, forward to pressure at times, last line of defence at times , he is so quick l miss what he is doing at times. However I don't miss him all of the times.  just some times. SOMETIMES l watch the replay to catch on what he does.

    sometimes.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
