We have done him a service getting Jim out of that horrible Richmond jumper.

Does anyone here know much about him?  "Kozzie light"?

Right we were on a roll and then....

Jacob, Blake, Taj, Judd and and Andy!!!  Garden variety Andy....still Moniz- Wakefield makes up for it and a hyphen too.

Seriously, Andy welcome and good luck.

 

Wow another fast, silky skilled, agile 18 year old player on the list who has great kicking skills, good size too at 180cm. Welcome  to the mighty Demons Andy Moniz- Wakefield, you are going to love being a Dee working with and being coached by the best. AMW,cool.


Congrats Andy and all the other 4 draftees. 
All look to have exciting skills offering different ones to add to our required hardness determination and team ethics.

Terrific base for our Coaches to develop.

Tall swing man defender and stylish goal kicker  Leader on the field and some possible 2022 games on the radar for this key position recruit. 

All round skilled outside high marking and long kicking centreman forward and wing prospect at 190cm. Exciting !! Could do anything in 2022. 

Son of a gun who has dreamed of this day joins with a stellar WA Colts and local games 2021. Excels on both sides of his body and is a leader.

Judd is a medium/small defender with high skills and run off the backline mantra.Will develop nicely his game style under our elite coaching

Andy is one of our  NGA boys  who also possesses a high skill level and outside run. Like all recruits he will relish our culture and is an East Freo Shark like Dogga Rivand Taj and will develop ahead in leaps and bounds as a mid and forward  ball getter. 
 

Exciting  times ahead.

 

 

 

We don't really have a player like him on the list. Hope he can develop well.

Likes to crack in and go hard at the contest.

Last bloke that came up from NT that showed similar traits was a bloke by the name of Mathew Whelan...

We might have to have Melbourne A and B sides, like the Australian cricket side did.

I agree Dante.  Our list now seems to be extremely well balanced by position and age democratic.

Well one thing, no one will be able to take their position for granted, there will be a contest for every spot. 

Wow, did I really say that, it would be the first time ever, at the club, you could say that, it's so hard to believe.

Looks ok. I think he’s got the potential to be a half back or wing type runner.  I’d like to see him given a rookie spot and develop under Choco, wheels and Nev Jetta. 

AMW … Welcome aboard to the Melbourne Footy Club

 👍🏻❤️💙

I had been thinking the same thing.

 

Number 45 Jumper just so happens to be available as well.

Whelan had great skills

Mustn't be any good or AFL would have found a way to stop us getting him like with Mac Andrew and stripping our northern zone and giving it to Suns etc etc.

Reminds me in a few ways of Gavin Wanganeen. Seems to have a very cool under pressure disposition despite saying he was nervous before the game and like him looks to have relatively short legs compared to his body so looks like he's buzzing along with a very rapid short stride.

Is his bottom as big as Gavins?  Just asking as I sat next to some Port supporters who predicted every free kick he got - stick bum out lean forward and get paid in the back

Would be fitting having another NT boy to don the number 45.

Spot on. #45 would be perfect.  Wheels as his mentor.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
