Well done Gus.

 

i am one of his biggest critics on this site, i think, but i think the role he's been playing this year as defensive fold-back wing has been nothing short of excellent and it's a fantastic achievement to get to 100 games given the adversity he's battled thru with concussion and serious injury last year

now - as i say of any demon who gets to 100 games - breed up, boy! i expect many father-sons and -daughters, especially given his partner is the daughter of danny frawley

surely that should produce a gun or three for future generations!

Funny watching so many pre-helmet moments there, feels to me like he’s always worn it. It serves as a reminder to the concussion issues that looked at one point like they might derail his career completely. Great to see those issues behind him and that he’s been able to get some continuity in his game.

Great stuff Gus!


Geeze he’d be pumped to be sharing this milestone with Jones’ 300th.

Well done Gussy. Here’s to the next 100.

Love what he brings to the side and he’s a great clubman.

The podcast was funny this week where he coined the phrase Gunk 400th referring to the combined Gus and Chunk 400 games for the game tonight. It’s personalities like his that are the glue holding the club together.

Congrats on the milestone Gus.

Gus seems to have been forgotten in the Jones 300th & ANZAC Eve occasion.

 

Gee, those highlights remind you what a good goal kicking midfielder he is. Well done, Gussy. Loving the sacrifice you're making playing on a wing for us. The way he's been getting back defensively, but then getting into space on the outside to provide offensive drive has been really impressive.

Anyone else a regular watcher/listener of the Gus and Gawny podcast? Angus goes alright on that, and it's good to see him starting to really show great form again after a couple of years of uncertainty being pushed out of the midfield.


Big fan of Gus. Has been huge this year. Stats don’t always tell the story. 
gus has been working really hard

One of the players who is sacrificing for the team, and a big reason for our improvement.

Won't be a Brownlow winner playing his role, but puts team above self. That's been a rare commodity in modern Demons sides.

 

Well done on the 100 Angus.

Here's to 200 more. 

Would love to see him return to the centre square at some stage as I feel he plays his best footy as an attacking midfielder. Been fantastic on a wing though and shows his character that he is willing to sacrifice his game for the team. Looking forward to another 100+ games from Gus.

How time flies like Dusty clocking up 250. 

Given Gus’s concussion problems it is a mighty effort. 

Courage, fortitude and determination.

As weird as seeing clips of early Nate Jones with hair!!


Given the concussion issues he has overcome this is a mighty effort. Playing a real team role for the club this year. Delighted with how he is travelling

Well done Gus

Gus loving your new role and the way you are attacking the game, foot skills have improved out of sight combined with your tough tackling and courageous attack on the pill, its a pleasure to watch.

Here's to the next ? Gussy boy.

#Gunk 400?‍?

Very happy lad singing the song, as they all were of course.

Well  done Gus.  Love your work.

Has been putting on some great spoils and taking really courageous marks dropping back into defense with the flight of the ball.

How about getting your brother to come play with us as well??!

 

I'm pretty sure Robbo failed to mention Gus' 100th at the top of the game. Is that right or did I miss it?

Gus is playing a very team oriented role, I think his favourite position is in the guts but he is really coming into his own as a winger now. He just seems to pop up everywhere and is doing a really good job in his new role. 

Well done on 100 games, Gus!

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    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.
