I remember when we drafted him Jason Taylor got asked why we would take him when had plenty of tall backmen. JT said when "a jet" is available at your pick you take them regardless.

Liked his highlight reel from Day1 and nothing that he has achieved so far is less than that evidence.

Many good games ahead for the No 35 and he could easily join our 4 AA s on our list!!

We are  just wild about Harry!!!

    Reckon this bloke can be an All Australian in three or four years.

    Great contested mark. Tough. Great spoiler.  Good disposal especially kicking. Will become  a better handballer with more experience.

    Incredible talent identification by our recruiters.

     

    as well as a quadruple premiership defender

    Well done to Petty for signing on.

    Don’t want to rail road the thread but I am intrigued to see what will happen when Tommo is ready and challenging for his spot in 2022. He is a great bloke and will be pushing hard for another tilt. 

    Can we play a d50 with May, Lever, Tommo and Petty? With Salem, Bowey Rivers to round at the d7?

    Hunt and Pig will also put constant pressure on for their spots and we have J Smith who can also play a good lock down role on a mid-size athletic type. Declase in development as well. 

    Such a great arsenal of defensive options and we proved this year that we can cover  2 and possibly 3 starting 6 defensive injuries.

    Reckon you could but you'd need a quick player instead of Brayshaw on the wing to balance things out a bit more ideally.

    We name 7 defenders normally but not 4 KP types inc Lever.

    We have Turner also who May improve.

    Hibbo can play either small or medium or sort of tall say Rohan or Briochek perhaps snd say Martin and Cameron.

    Lever  proved vs Geelong in Prelim if he plays well and keeps the troops accountable we can play with Petty taking over Mays role. But in 2022 we will have Tommo available also most of the year.

    Don't think we need worry about Gus  he covers ground  very well snd stays  on his wing like Langers to help out defence and forwards.

    We will still be very strong for 4/5 years in the backline I believe. L

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • 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.
