Good, honest player; very happy with his development.  Bit of James McDonald about him imho.

I bet that Melbourne is working to extend the contracts of both Trac and Jackson as we speak.

I know they are signed until the end of next year, but that will come around very quickly, and if we are to target someone like Merrett in the off season, we need to re-sign as many of our top players as we can so we can assess where our salary cap is at. 

We have no room in our cap to go out and get anyone, surely.

 

Another solid performance (vs North)

20 disposals @ 90% disposal efficiency, 7 tackles, 7 score involvements, 4 clearances

He flies under the radar.. going beautifully for a 20 year old 7 gamer.  (Or is that 7 winner?)

Wonder what the longest a player has gone since debut without a loss

Got a little while to go...

 

Just clarifying, Second Verse, this is the players' first 'x' games in the seniors, since debut in the seniors, but aren't consecutive games, as James's have been? Bryan Kenneally's, for example, were rounds 11 (debut) and 12 in 1959, then rounds 2, 5 and then 6 to 15 in 1960. James does indeed have a little way to go, but I wonder where he sits in the consecutive games since debut field?

Now it's 9 games. Does anyone have the stamina to fully look into the 'afltables' source material for TPF39's post to see whether anyone ahead of James played their winning games from debut in the firsts consecutively? I looked at a couple of the other 9s and they didn't, and I checked ahead and Mumford didn't.

That is not correct We won in 2015/16/17 in Round  1. Beating GC GWS and Saints respectively.

Thought he played the second best game of his career yesterday.

That steadying goal he kicked in the last qtr was impressive.

Played another very useful back up game/ role where he just gets his hands on the ball and uses it pretty well. Also he is a fantastic tackler and Yao's elevated him as he is prepared to get his hands dirty.

Also SpargO played IMO  his best game for us  Love his work in defence snd link up was strong. He is now quite an accomplished AFL player. All credit to him and our Footy Dept. 

Delighted with his progress thus far. Goes about his business in a no fuss manner. The club has really got its act together from a development perspective and JJ is a testament to that. Didn't know a whole lot about before Rd 1 but i've had him in my votes for Freo and again yesterday.

Great start to your AFL career. Well done young man.

That original quote was from 2015.

Still not sure what Garbo was talking about though

I love how he tackles. So much intent. And he’s not slow either. 
Also we can never drop him or we might never win a game again.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
