Hey, I find it hard to make my way to Trinity Grammar in Bulleen without getting lost. How am I going to make it to Wangaratta?

  • 2 weeks later...

Hi guys hope to see u all there. I will be with my two girls. We will be having a look at training at the showgrounds. My eldest will be on a "field trip" with dad instead of at school. The school might not appreciate lessons in demonology!

 

Hey guys I'll be there as well!

I'll try and do a report. Does anyone knw what they will be doing on the Friday?

Rollo! I couldn't make it to Wangaratta but I'm waiting with bated breath for your report. What's happening over there man?


Seems to me that there aren't too many Demon fans out Wangaratta who went to see their team if the response around here is a guide. We had much more feedback when they went to the Gold Coast!

I would like to come, but I live in Sydney :angry: :unsure: , I look forward to any reports from this night :)

Obviously the chance we'll draft him is slim, but it's good to see the club letting a young talent like Ben McEvoy train with them ... an outstanding athletic ruck/KP prospect.

Hey, I have played bushies with Ben McEvoy and Daniel Boyle!

I really hope we pick up McEvoy! He is very tall, quick, great hands, great spring and can pick up a fair bit of the ball. He covers alot of territory too.

Boyle is a tough nut who is very quick but his decision making is a worry and his skills can let him down just a tad.

McEvoy would be my pick. great bloke too.

Also I'll try and do a report as I was there! It's all good news too!

C'mon get to it dazzler. Looking forward to it.

Ok, here its goes:-

Well first of all I must say it was the first time since 2000 (when they came to Barooga) that I got up close and personal, and by jeez they are all looking fit! I spoke to a heap of players but the one that really stood out for me is Jared Rivers. The guy is so laid back. He said that this year is the year where we make a big name of ourselves and that we should cement a top 4 spot.

This was the first time I have watched Melbourne train and I was hugely impressed!

Brock McLean looks like a million dollars and you just just have that feeling he will one day be captain. I have never seen someone so young who could give out orders and direct intsructions in the way that he did!

James Frawley is going to be one big unit and from watching him train I rate this kid highly! Yes, he does have an unco kicking style but the funny thing is he hit his target practically every time. He has that physique where he could turn out to be as big as Neitz or Holland one day. He will play this year mark my words.

Isaac Weetra is another who impressed me! He is very quick and has great skills, so I wouldn't be surprised if he played this year. I'm not gonna put a big head on this kid but I seriously reckon he has all the tools to become a very damaging player. I have a feeling just from watching him that he could be the next Travis Johnstone but quicker! He moves so well and just has that knack of being where the ball is.

Lynden Dunn moves a lot more like a midfielder than a forward which really surprised me! He hasn't really bulked up that much but he looks like he can really make an impact this year and eventually turn out to be a great player. He showed some good skills.

Well basically all the players trained really well! They all looked fit and healthy and very hungry for success. Yze, Miller, Brown and Robbo look like they will have a big year this year, and I have high hopes for these guys. Our young guys I reckon are just as good as anyone in the comp! Bate, McLean, Jones, Dunn, Bartram, CJ are all able to lift to another level this year.

Go Dees!

Nice effort there dazzledavey36 but could you tell me how Heath Neville and Daniel Hayes are going?

And how could I forget Jace Bode?

Sure will my good friend. Heath Neville is interesting as he has a bit of speed. From what i hear from match reports he plays on the back flank. One thing for sure is that he has got good skills from what I saw. He reminds me a bit of Daniel Bell ATM. If he can play a few games he could turn out to be a good player! He and Belly streaming out of our defence is something I can see happening one day. I have high hopes for this kid and I'm hoping he can play a senior game this year.

Didn't really notice much of Hayes but from what I saw he has a good turn of speed and has the freakish skills. If he could turn out like Davey then we have one damaging forward line!

Athletes vs footballers - take your pick? I for one would pick footballers! Jace Bode came to the club with an impressive record at under 18 level and a very impressive athletics career. but the downside is that he is definitely more an athlete! He just went through training and had that attitude where he looked as if he doesn't give a stuff. I was pretty disappointed and you would think given another year on the rookie list because of interstate crap or something he would be busting out of his skin! I hope not picking up Alywn Davey will not haunt us!

Only time will tell.

:lol:

Nice to see dazzler report on training instead of asking about it for a change!

I guess thats the positive of the community camps, all our fans up that part of the state were able to look at training and feel a bit more part of the pre-season. I'm sure many country fans make a lot of effort to get down and see the team play as much as they can during the season.


oh dont you worry guys il still be asking about my kids! lol nar but like i said i was highly impressed and pumped!

go dees!!

Hey Dazzler, your thoughts on Simon Buckley?

very quick!! and he is built up well during the summer, should play a couple of games this year and really has talent! his skills are a pleasure to watch and one thing also he aint afraid to hit a couple of hard bodys! if i had 2 compare him to someone it would be Brett Deledio but harder me thinks! cannot wait to see him play, very exciting

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
