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!

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.

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.

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.

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!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
