Fits the MFC mantra of hard at it (with questionable skills). 
Will it delay the progress of one of our youngsters? Probably, but it will show them what’s required to get to premiership levels. 
If dirt cheap why not.

We should be sniffing too. We lost Tim Smith who if not always injured would be getting a semi-regular gig in the seniors and he hasn't been replaced by a big body.

I wouldn't mind him.

Did he not kick 16 goals in 5 games at the end of 2017?

Yes and only 16 goals for the rest of his 8 year career.

He gave Nathan Jones a massive hit at the City End in 2018 for memory.

If he can hurt the oppo, and kick goals...that is the minimum.  I think he is a tad slow, which unless players are extra special in other facets, we should stay away from.

You'd be all over him TGR being a Tigs man.

Didn't they have him before Tigers?

Yea. the article was saying that he may go back to where he came (like the geelong ruckman who is back at the Suns).

Rubbish footballer. Pass.

Please don't give me the old he's played in a premiership though. Up there along with few other spuds like Mitch Morton, Mark Blake, Jon Simpkin, Steven Armstrong and many others.

Stuart Anderson, who Freo recruited after the 96 Flag thinking he would bring some experience

All he brought was a lack of work ethic and exposure to how limited his ability was when not surrounded by stars

Not opposed to recruiting this guy. Will be decent depth as a role player up forward. Probably fight ANB for a spot. Looks like he might be off to giants and we haven’t been linked.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
