It is early days right now but this kid looks the best of the three taken last year.


Looks like a great find. 

Excellent news

Great news. The signings are coming thick and fast. Got to get Jack Viney's signature next!

That's signings announced three days in a row. I wonder if it will be leading up to Viney's signature

I thought we had it?

Fantastic news on Rivers.  You could tell from his first game with his run off half back and his courage that he was going to play a large chunk of the season for us.  Can't wait to see him continue to develop.

Sack Mahoney!  Sack Goodwin!   Ummm ... I mean, great news and well done to all concerned.

Hahaha dont stress you're doing it right.

If anything you forgot to mention Pert & Misson

Great signing.  188cm defenders with good mobility, game sense and kicking do not grow on trees.

I don't know if Rivers will be the 'best' of the three  2019 picks, but I'm not sure 'best' will be a sensible way to look at them when they are three such completely different types each very suited the role they will be expected to develop into.

Great news! West Coast rate him big time and reached out to his management, so I’m glad he decided to extend with us rather than head home to WA. This kid looks like he’ll own a HBF for the next decade.

Lots of signings announced so I’m assuming they’re building to Viney as the finale!


Solid. Now let’s prey for some sustained success over the next three seasons to lower the chances of him being lured back west. 

This just keeps getting better and better, still a number to sign on and I will watch this space anxiously over the coming days, weeks, until we get all our Ducks lined up. Thanks Trent for showing your confidence in the Red & Blue, let's hope it turns to a shared love of our mighty club.

Well done Dee's.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't have any reluctance to predict that our 3 recruits from the 2019 draft will be better than the Port Adelaide 3 in 2018 draft over their careers.

Big prediction big talk but as long as we develop their footy Riv Kossie and Dogga each have very high degree of ability and special talents that already make them stand out in the AFL at their age.

Trent Rivers when you talk about signing something of a bargain well Rivers is it.  Once in a blue moon Special.  The kid is very composed   and is hard at it playing off a half back flank....has kicked 2 goals however one was a boomer from outside 50 when it counted.

He plays like he belongs and they are hard to find .  We found one and is part of the future of our great club.

He has made my day.

I screamed of delight equivalent to kicking a goal in the game by a Dees player after reading the headline.

Well done Mahoney etc. great work.

A special  talent Who may even be a Dees Captain down the track. Talk about a Grimes type a decade on who will be handled properly and hopefully no injuries to ruin his career. 

Deelighted to hear this news - he looks right at home at AFL level - in his debut game he seemed to have more time than M Waugh or Gower, and the way he stepped up in the dying minutes in those games towards the end of the year showed extraordinary will to win.

I've been super excited about Rivers since the moment as a draft prospect he was described as being a great kick running out of defence. He should play 200+ games. I hope he tells WC and Freo to f$ck themselves and plays them all in the Red & Blue.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
