Demons hand AFL lifeline to Daw

Door open for discarded Roo after receiving invitation to train with Demons

I’m not sure what to make of this. My recollection of Daw’s form on comeback was that he struggled. This is virtually a second lifeline and he has also had personal issues in his life of late. Things won’t be easy for him given the physical and mental barriers he has to overcome. It’s almost a flashback to last year and Harley Bennell but at least the club is thinking outside the square.

Majak can certainly ruck and can play on both ends of the ground as well and is  proven.  A  great backup for  Max Gawn  if needed An insurance if Maxy has an injury, Hope he makes the list he would be a great asset.

I’m not sure the club will do much better than Majak as a backup option - for all the posters here saying no, who should we go for instead?

I wish him all the best with his second chance, hope he grabs it by the ears.

“But for now, he will link up with the Demons on Monday, as he hopes to win a spot on their playing list.

“As part of the Pre-Season Supplemental Selection Period we have offered Majak Daw an opportunity to train with us for the remainder of pre-season,” List manager Tim Lamb told the club’s website.”

Does that mean that the team is able to train on Monday despite the lockdown?

If tennis is an “essential service” in Victoria then so is footy.

no no and no we dont need another injury prone player may as well bring back HB for another chance

Don,t get carried away he would not be a best 22 fd he is an insurance for the big fella. He can play it is my opinion and would be a good back up and is a big strong boy.  I am sure that others would agree.

So you want bring to the club a player who has injury problems ,personal issues and was delisted by his employer,does not look good a resume

If Clint Biscuit can overcome issues of delistment from Geelong and survive then Majak May be motivated to overcome his.

With Hore, Weed and Brown done a one year deal would be worth while. If one of our other talls gets injured we would be knackered. So Majak is worthwhile insurance.

I think T Mc can turn his form around this year but not a sure thing. Jackson looks the goods but is still very young.

How many spots do we have? Farmer to fill one.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
