Gday guys, on one of the training thread there's been a few doubts on young Charlie about his size and whether he can translate his ability to AFL level. Thought I'd bring this thread up and have my 2

...... you have a terrible, terrible memory. First of all, Cam Hunter was 6 foot 1, while Spargo is 5'8. Hunter was very light for his height, unlike Spargo, who is a nuggety player.

I reckon this is just encouragement at the moment.  Good to see that he is in the frame though

The site article says he will debut!

Couldn’t be a  media stuff up.

Then again.

They usually do a separate article so I agree it seems a bit surprising.

Wasn't banging the door down for selection at Casey last week. A lot to like about the kid but sometimes selection can be confusing.

 

He got a vote in the review just behind Munro and Pedersen.

Wouldn't be surprised if it's more a wake up call for garlett.

Suprise selection for me, but I like it. We need to uncover some more players, so worth a shot.

Balic is a bit stiff not to be given a crack but he won't be too far off.

Gut feeling - Charlie has the wherewithal to succeed at this level and will be one of the success stories for the Dees in 2018.

Poor bastard.

The dolts on here will be critiquing his every disposal.

Given how about 5 or 6 have played recently that's not going to happen.

It’ll probably still be short of the vitriol you threw at Jack Watts over the years.

It's always a good time to bring in a first gamer as we need a bit of enthusiasm and Charlie Spargo will add a bit of bite close to goals.

Hopefully he is picked in the 22 when they finalise the side.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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.

    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
