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!

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
