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!

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.

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

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
