Makes sense. Our defence has been our strength, but it’s also the most susceptible if we cop another injury or two on top of Tomlinson.

    Yes. Also played for us in the practise match v Bulldogs, where he Smith & Majak were vying for 2 spots on our list.

    Yes, but it's at Werribee's discretion as to whether he plays against them if the sides play, and he returns to them for finals if he's delisted.

    I don't really see it with this pick.

    Clearly a talented player who's doing well at VFL level, but he looks flashy and outside, rather than the type of player who can step in as depth.

    If we're to get a key defensive injury we don't need a skilled player to step in, we need someone who can contest and do a defensive job.

    A former local footy forward who plays as a utility tall doesn't really fit the bill to me.

    That set shot outside 50m was a decient roost.

    That's the complete opposite from what many on here was suggesting just 6 months ago Re the sort of players we needed.  How times change.

    Though, I somewhat agree that for a guy we recruited to fill a backline depth venerablility most of his highlight real is in the front half. 

     

    Looks like a capable enough unit and will be interesting to see what a few more months on an AFL list can do for him - best of luck Kye.

    The highlights package of him doing a ‘defensive job’ was probably quite boring...

    I am guilty of judging from the highlights but even reading between the lines of JT’s comments, he’s been flashy but inconsistent so far in his VFL career.

    I like the upside and who knows what he can be with some time in the system. I’m just not convinced he’s the right type to bring in mid year. It’s really hard to come in to a club mid season, adapt to full time footy, learn a new system and then perform if you get a chance.

    Hi Declase clan. Welcome to the family.

    Would love some insight into your families reaction to him being drafted and whether he knew he would be picked up.

    Your boy looks a real unit. What side of the family does he get his sporting ability from?

    Go Dees.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
