Is he a lockdown type defender?    We are desperate for a Jetta replacement

Dogs were putting him under pressure all day with repeat forward entries and he stood up really well

He was supercompetitive one v one, even left his man to jump and punch the ball away 

His disposal was good under pressure with no costly turn overs

He's great to watch

Pretty lean, as you would expect given he has probably been training his guts out trying to win a spot but given his ability and determination it's not a major issue

5 games in the seniors should put an end to that.  

On a serious note though, great news and best of luck to both.  Keep going hard!

No return date for Smith or Hibberd, Lockhart out probably for a month, Nietschke and Hore done for the season. 

We needed a small defender for a needs basis, so even if the kid could barely lace up his boots he had a path to a list spot. 

If he’s showing promise at training and VFL level and is aggressive and athletic with scope for development then it’s a no brainer.

 

i'm not surprised really. we look light on for defenders with a few injuries about and Jetta's moving like he's ready for a mobility scooter these days.

Was he #40 ?

I was at the game, but wasnt sure who Smith was. Only clue was players calling #40 "Deaks"

If so, then agree that he looked pretty good.  


  • Demonland changed the title to WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DEAKYN SMITH

Welcome to the Dees, good luck to him. 

 

Welcome aboard Deakyn Smith, keep working hard and stay fit young man, there are a number of spots that will open up as the season rolls on, if you are good enough. So good luck and make the most of your opportunities at the mighty Dee's !!!!!.

Got halfway through the sentence and thought it was going to say he was debuting against Freo.

His time will come anyways.

haven't seen any footage of him but he comes across in the interview well. mature and ready to put in. love that he's into the idea of locking someone down as a defender too.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
