Jordon raring to go ?     To go where?   Well all l have to say is l hope that the kid is a chance . However if Jordon makes the 22  for his first game  then he would have deserved it and really earned it. 

2021 and beyond should not be any GIMME games.

    He didn't get a lot of footy when played off half back but certainly got a bit as a mid.

    He knows where to run and is not afraid to lay a good tackle.

    He's a very good kick.

    He also came to us as the youngest player in his draft year, A December birthday just snuck him over the line.

    He has some really good attributes... enough to make it?

    Who knows...I wouldn't write him off just yet.

    I was not suggesting we do rjay. I just gave my opinion from limited occasions I saw him. It is tough to judge him on 2019 when he lost a lot of game time injured.

    Are you thinking of Sparrow? Jordon played 15 games in 2019. That’s a good amount for a first year kid. Still very hard to make any judgments when he was a raw draft pick and will be a much different player now.

    Yep i think you're right. Jordon played most the year from memory and Sparrow missed about half the season with a knee injury.

    i remember Jordon looked slow when he started playing on the HBF. might be the reason they moved him onball where he was workman like. hopefully he's come on a bit as he has matured.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
