Um what does Production mean? can't get the ball?

I assume so.  But defenders usually don't get a lot of it. 

Understanding of our game plan and positioning should help in that regard.

Just hope he's not a skater.

How does Jed Hagen get into the review.??

Clever recruiting WA boys in covid times. Plenty of games and form to review

 

Watching his highlights i can't help but think he reminds me a lot of Corey Enright. He's not a line breaking half back like Hunt or Rivers, but when he has the footy he has so much composure and time that time just slows down around him.

Doing a bit more research on him i came across this article that states he started playing senior football at just 15 years of age and even kicked 4 goals on his debut. Seems like he had a pretty impressive under 16's year which resulted in being selected for All Australian.

Maybe looking ahead to the 2042 season and father / son selections.

Looks like he has long arms for his height, might be useful for spoiling.

Interesting that he was a quality midfielder in under 16's then kind of relegated to a half back flank role in his draft year.

Seems to have gears like good players do. Cruises when evaluating his options then can pull the trigger if needed.

Did he finish school in 2020 like most WA guys do a year earlier than here?

I just wonder if he's a bit cruisy. Bit of a Travis Johnstone vibe almost. I wonder if the professional and competitive environment of the MFC will fire him up a bit.

If a Rookie pick has the qualities of Travis Johnstone I'll be pretty  happy.

Is it just me or does it seem like Taylor and co end up picking up players who have good U16 seasons? It pinged in my mind reading about McVee that I feel like I’ve read this before when it comes to Dees draftees in the last 3-4 seasons. Might be coincidence I’m sure.

Not just that, plenty of development and momentum missed by the boys in VIC.

And less recent exposed form to make harsher judgments on. Plenty of kids get downgraded because repeated viewings expose flaws in their games. The VIC kids have the luxury of potentially hiding flaws that could see them slide.

Interesting opening this thread and seeing his draft weight was just 68kg and his current listed weight is still only 70kg for his 185cm.

Watching him play in the practice games and on saturday he looked like just a naturally lean body rather than the skinny implied by those numbers. Wouldn't think he was 15-20kg lighter than, say, Salem and Hibberd at the same height.

Giving this to the Demonland trackwatchers as a mission - what is McVee's current playing weight compared to his pre-preseason weight?

there's the lockdown defender we've been after

Nice call.

Judd has a nice ring to it, here come the Judd.!!!

Round 1 was the first time i had seen him play. Outstanding debut considering what was at stake. 
Just like Jake Bowey and Harrison Petty on debut, played with absolute skill. Attacked the ball with sure hands and was not overawed by his surrounds at all. 
May he have a long successful career at Senior Level

? Petty's debut is widely regarded as one of the worst ever.

Not when he took over from Tomlinson. That was when I first laid eyes on him

Fair enough and don't want to distract from the point on Judd. Was indeed a good debut. Interested to see his lockdown capabilities. I can see him getting Charlie Cameron this week which is equal parts exciting and terrifying

Bring it on. Hopefully he relishes the opportunity, and does really well. He will have experience around him.

 

He is surprisingly quick and has very measured disposal, even after a sprint. Will be great to have off HB going forward.

Love this. Be brave with coaching and let young guys have a steep learning curve to get ready for finals intensity. If he does alright then that's a win, if he doesn't, well theres not any defender in the comp that can stop Cameron (except Hibbo) from kicking 5 goals when he's on.

Agree 100% re Bowey, but many here wrote Harry off forever after a “less than stellar” debut which I think was a couple of years before his great comeback games when Tommo went down.

Yep, Petty had a Barry Crocker on debut...

Come on BoBo he has played 177 games and kicked 5 or more 7 times 

Yep he is very dangerous and a quality small forward but this might be a slight overreach (less than 4% of games)

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • 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.
