MartyHore2019Review.png

“He showed he’s a very capable AFL player. He’s a very balanced person, he’s mature, he’s played a lot of VFL footy and he was just ready for the next step. As he got more and more experience, he looked more and more comfortable at AFL level. He had a little stint of injury and had to go through the VFL again, but finished the year strong by working his way back into the AFL team.” - Matt Egan MFC Head of Player Development

A great pick-up for MFC stepped in and filled a number of roles for the Dee's at crucial times, I hope that he continues to improve his ball use and holds down a spot in our best 22 - 25 players. - Well done Marty Hore.............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Certainly exceeded expectations given his low draft pick and poor debut game. Needs to make significant improvements in his defensive work and his disposal to play regularly next year because there is no way that he and Lever can play in the same team. He should be aspiring to push Hibberd out of the team by mid season.

A little contradictory, or at least confusing.

Does you actually mean that there cannot be Hibberd, Hore and Lever in the same side or that even if he displaces Hibberd he still couldn't. work with Lever?

I hope I’m wrong but I’m concerned Hore is OK at many things, but not AFL standard in enough things except his marking.

Not big enough to defend a true big forward or fast enough on the lead.

Not athletic/agile enough to defend a small or medium forward.

Disposal/decision making not good enough to be a distributor.

As per @poita’s post, Lever is better at what Hore is best at and I struggle to see them both in the same team.

I think Hore is solid depth, especially if Lever gets injured again, but I can’t see him holding down a first 22 position in the backline.

There’s a reason he was a prominent VFL player for a while yet wasn’t drafted.

Hibberd and Jetta look to be the incumbents closest to being over the hill, so maybe Hore can be trained hard to improve his deficiencies to take over from one of them. Needs to work on agility to be like a Jetta, or straight line pace to be like Hibberd.

He shouldn’t ever lose his ability to read a ball in the air and mark it as that’s probably a reasonably natural talent for him.

Hore has been a great pick up for the Dees & proved his worth time & time again.....

His kicking however is horrible......often kicks blindly & if he can improve in this area & show more composure, he will be a cracker.

From all reports a great fella too....

Love his intercept marking.   Was in the top couple in the league  before he was injured.

Reckon he was top (from a small sample) for one week or so.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
