Dwayne's Most Watchable in 2022


Demonland

Recommended Posts

 Number 1 is a casual 7 years passed his best.

Number 2 won’t be there for the first 5-6 weeks of 2022 if there’s any justice.

Number 3 only shows up when he wants, and if there’s not a stray teenager on offer.

So yeah, not a great list.

Dwayne is the worst commentator in Australia why are we taking any notice of his rubbish?

My top 10 most watchable:

1. Kozzy Pickett - magic happens!

2. Isaac Heeney - if he's injury free he'll be nearly the best player in the comp.

3. Liam Ryan - pace, leap, execution!

4. Charlie Cameron - the next Betts.

5. Harry McKay - reckon he's in for a 70 plus season.

6. Christian Petracca - who wouldn't want to see more of Norm?

7. Dustin Martin - legend of the game.

8. Shai Bolton - always exciting. Can mess it up but won't die wondering.

9. Toby Greene - mainly just enjoy watching him self-destruct.

10. Scott Pendlebury - my favourite non-demon

I'm not going to go all out in defence of Dwayne but the list is meant to be something other than just a best players list. 

All three of your descriptions are almost definitions of why they're on the list.

The first might not play too many more games (so see him while you can). The second might flip out and kick an umpire in the face and the last one is a real piece of work that might have 25 disposals and kick 5 or he could decide he couldn't be bothered and walk around the field sulking.

They're kind of the definition of box office. If Stephen Milne still played, he'd be a shoe in.

Derwaynne - I would watch Kozzie, Tracy, Clarrie, Max and Jacko before most of those.   (Maybe I am a bit biased) 🙄

My list (excluding Melb players due to bias:- koz, Trac, Oliver, Jacko, Gawn, Fritsch, Salem would all feature)

 

1.  Bont              (Class & match winner)

2.  Liam Ryan    (Excitement, weekly hangers)

3.  Dusty             (Don’t argue)

4.  Nic Nat          (Freakish ruck-taps)

5.  Josh Kelly      (Skill + ability to hit a target)

6.  Buddy       (The strut, and bombs from 60m) 

7.  C. Cameron   (Speed, stupid celebrations) 

8.  Robbie Gray    (Class/skill/match-winner)

9.   Danger       (Explosiveness)

10. Greene      (Mad, head explosions)

Robbie Gray has been one of my favourite non Melbourne players to watch for a while now but I think he's done & I can't think of anyone who would get me through the gate.

I agree on Gray. 

It's funny you should say you can't think of anyone, other than a dees player, who would get me through the gate, so to speak.

Box office in sen speak.

None readily comes to mind either.

Perhaps Toby Greene, who leaving aside being a prize fool, is an out an out star. Plays like a kpd and has the skills of small.

The giants have let him down though. Tbey should have refused to go in to bat for him with the umpire charge.

(And of course he has let them down a million times)

Apparently being voted the best player in a GF and producing on the biggest stage of all isn't very watchable these days 😥.

I heard about 3 minutes of this and turned it off. 
it just made no sense 

Luke Jackson, Clarry and Tracc have just ripped the game apart and hardly got a mention. 
it was a ridiculous segment

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0
