    In case you are interested, Dom Tyson will wear number 21 at North Melbourne.

     

    Further evidence he was going backwards, even his number is now backwards

    Rohan Connolly reckons Kangas are top 4 in 2019. Tyson Hall Polec and Pitterd plus youngster Tarryn Thomas reckon to boost team into premiership contention. Connolly suffers from “Premature escalation”!!

    Just incase anyone was interested in seeing Dom in his new kit. Best of luck Dom. 

     

    Suspect it was one of Carlton, Gold Coast or St Kilda. No half decent team is offering a depth midfielder 5 years.

    He’s better than that imo. We just have freakish ability in Oliver, viney and Brayshaw at the coal face. Given an ongoing role at stoppages I think Tyson will be a very good player ar North.... but they won’t be top 4.

    Wow.  From clearly missing the top 8 with the aid of the leagues  easiest draw to now making top 4.  What's he smoking in his pipe?

    The Kangas have a recruiting haul something like what Port did last season.

    How did they finish up?

    Like Port in season 2018, North will be lucky to make the 8 this coming season.

    I liked Dom too. He was a bright spot there for us for a couple of seasons. 94 games for us, not to father/son
    I’ll ignore the trade that got him to us but upon leaving we got Preuss and the pick that became Marty Hore. Preuss left and gave us the pick that gave us Fraser Rosman 

    So Dom Tyson (retired) = Hore + Rosman

    I thought he was pretty serviceable when playing with us, especially since he was played as an outside mid and he considered himself an inside mid, hence the move. 
    I am a bit surprised he didn't get to play more games than he did for North.
    I wonder what went wrong?

    I didn't mind Dom - he served a purpose during the Roos' rebuiding era

    Correct weight.

    We needed experienced players who had been in the system for a year or two. Bringing in the number two pick into what was close to a VFL quality list would have backfired badly.

    Dom was never going to be the next Dusty Martin, but he played a part in the years between 2014 and 2016 which ensured that while we were no world beaters, we weren't being pantsed every week. And for that we should thank him.

    didn't it basically work out as:

    josh kelly = tyson + salem + hunt

    tyson = preuss + hore

    preuss = sideshow bob

    so josh kelly = sideshow bob + salem + hunt + hore

    He was injured nearly the whole time he was there unfortunately (chronic ankle from memory) however the few games he played he didn’t do all that well sadly for him.

    One day in the next century someone's going to be trawling through the ancient records of Demonland and conclude that in 2021 there was some sort of witch-hunt for working girls involving a circus performer called Robert.

    Such a talented youngster and things just didnt fall his way.  Injuries and then the game looked too quick for his contested style

    Served the Demons well when he played for us. All the Best Dom

    I too like Domma and was a bit sad to see him go.

    His 2014 - 2016 period was very fine contributor for us and really made a solid impact through the impact. 

    Always welcome back to the red and blue home.

    Wrist and persistent calf problems through his time at North.

    That was in his first year, he has been fit through 2020-2021.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
