Here’s to an auspicious debut and a successful career. Do the jumper proud # 23!

 

Congratulations to J Jordon. But seriously.. Yuk!!! I’d love to be proven wrong.. But I just don’t think he offers anything. 

  • Demonland changed the title to James Jordon to debut Round 1

[censored] me lads and ladies... a lot of apathy/unfounded angst towards a bloke that hasn't played a game yet.

...and you call yourselves supporters ?

I think he has composure and can offer outside mid skills., it is something we need.

Blood them early, get him understanding what it takes at the highest level.

Good early call.

Haven't really seen him play what's consensus on his positives, improvement areas and position?

Positives: 2 way runner,  spreads well from the stoppage, tackles hard.

Improvement: Penetrating with disposal, decision making.

Position: Midfield. 

 


My little brother grew up with him in Yarra.. Jimmy is already teeing up tickets for him and the lads down this way.

This post after ONE negative comment?

Going a bit early arent you?

Looked good against Richmond, struggled against the Dogs. I'd suggest he often starts at half forward and swaps with Petracca a fair bit or even Clarry to go do the midfield running whilst they rest deep forward. 

If we move the ball it brings his tank in to play more and whilst his disposal has been hit and miss I'd suggest there's a chance of some good kicking in there.

Freo are super hard working and disciplined so his tank should suit, particularly at the G.

He hasn’t played a game yet, give the kid sometime to feel comfortable at the level.

Seriously. F&ck I hope he proves you wrong. I assume your opinion is based on a detailed view of the growth in his game over the last 3 years and not based on him playing second mid against the dogs first string midfield last week. 

Allegedly works his butt off. Allegedly team first. Allegedly plays his role. For every Martin and Cotchin you need your Broads, Caddy’s and McIntosh. Does not need to get a heap of ball just work hard and do the job set for him. 

Best of luck Jimmy J. Do what got you a game, work hard and play your role and hopefully its the start of a long career. 

Best wishes for a long and successful career in the red & blue JJ.  If you are half as good as a previous #23 (Junior Mac), you will serve our Club well.

ps.  from the very limited bits I've seen of JJ, I can see a few similarities with Junior.

Think of him as a James McDonald type more then anything. Coaches love him, will do a discipline job when asked, and will go out and give 110%. Has worked incredibly hard to get to AFL level due to a few rejections at TAC cup level.

Knowing his parents well in Daryl and Prue Jordon, they will be extremely proud this Saturday. 

On ya Jimmy.

Good luck James!! Struggled against the best kid in the comp last week but will be better for the run. Has size, has run, looks tough. 

take the opportunity. Play your role and Max and Jack will be happy

The article is incorrect in one aspect. He was born on 20 December, 2000 according to the club’s pen pictures which makes him 20 years old - not 22.

Is this numerologically propitious WJ? JJ’s debut is also slated for the 20th!

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
