SPEED HUMP

The pacy Demon’s career hit a speed hump this year as injuries and a loss of form dogged him throughout the season and kept him down to an inauspicious six games. Needs a big pre season to regain favour and MFC selection.

Terrible year by such a promising player lost his mojo when put back in the reserves, needs to work on his kicking if he's going to make it.

Hopefully his back problems dissipate. When fit, he makes our list stronger. Plus he's awesome to watch carrying the ball under his arm!

 

I’d love to see Hunt back in the team.

It was eluded to by some that he had a difficult year.

I wonder if anybody can shed a little light on if his difficulty was physical or his application or personal issues?

Does anyone actually know what were his problems through 2018?

Is it related to the back issues that had him miss most (if not all) of his debut season?  If yes, has he recovered from / learned to manage these?

Is it above the shoulders? Much of what differentiates good from very good from champion sportsmen often is.

Has anyone heard (from reliable sources or from the horse's mouth) how he is approaching the off season / preseason?  Positively? Working on his deficiencies which to my untrained eye seem to be both disposal and decision making / planning?

Thanks for any informed input.

To my mind his best is very good, ie B grade.

A wise man said let's look at what he can do and not what he can't. He has got some special athletic attributes and he's super brave.  We can work on his problem areas.

  • 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.

    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

    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.
