Then it all makes sense, to me. Fritsch needs a wing and 2-way running to the HFF area; lock in Vince as stated on Shuey, Hannan in deeper fwd role to meet up with Fritsch a little, Smith the Son of a Gun into a clearing defensive flank and assist chop at CHB - maybe even playmaker at spoils on incoming Eagle scheet, Spargo open season all over the fwd half.

That's 2 ins and 1 out if I read you correctly.

Vince in.

Smith to back, in

BF to wing

Dom out

He's been pushed out of his inside role on to a wing and he's just not a damaging wingmen or runner.  He's playing a role, but in my opinion he's about player no.22 in the side in that role.  He's bet

After reading the ins and outs thread a majority of people thought Dom Tyson should be on the chopping block. The word coming out of the club is they really rate Joel Smith and he is pushing for

I rate Dom, seems like I'm in the minority. Thought his footy was really solid up until his arm injury.  He stays in for me and good sides will have depth, challenging players to hold their spot.

Good reasoning, regarding the containment of Shuey but can Vince do that for a full game? 

His shoulder wouldn't have prevented him from running and keeping ready. I would include Vince ahead of Tyson just incase we do want to switch up the tag or incase a player goes down. Vince is more versatile than Tyson, and can tag and play down back. It gives us more versatility and better options should a player go down in any position.

If I were Dom Tyson, I would be desperate to get a trade at the end of this year. He will never be anything other than a medium-to-good inside midfielder and we have heaps of that type already — almost all of whom are well in front of him.

I have always said that Dom stays in the side until others go past him. But he is limited to where he can play.

Last year - Jones, Viney ( when he played)  and Oliver were ahead of him. Brayshaw always had more talent but was struggling to get on the park. Harmes was behind him. This year Tyson is 6th in the running brigade.  Harmes and Brayshaw have well and truly leapfrogged him. Even Jones has another string to his bow as he played a bit at half back and sometimes tags. Tyson cant do either.  He cant play half back flank like Lewis or Salem - he can't tag like Harmes, Jones and Viney. 

I would think he should /may see the writing on the wall.

    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.
