Not as newsworthy as some of the headline stuff they’ve been publishing of late but here are some snippets from the HUN’s online paper about players going around the traps

Mark Jamar Doncaster

The former AFL big man will combine with ex-Melbourne teammate Jake Spencer at the Sharks this season, to form arguably the Eastern league’s most dangerous ruck combination. Jamar played 155 games for Melbourne from 2002-2015 before five with Essendon in 2016. He earned All Australian selection in 2010. The 38-year-old spent the past three seasons with Sunraysia league outfit, Ouyen United

Matt Jones South Croydon

The ex-Melbourne midfielder lands back in the Eastern league after a season with Ovens and Murray league club, Wangaratta Rovers. The Bulldog favourite has featured in three senior premierships at the club, including the 2017 top division triumph, and will be a big lifter through the midfield

Brock McLean Tongala 

The former Melbourne and Carlton midfielder has made a regional switch from Shepparton United to Tongala. He was an impressive performer in the Goulburn Valley league and adds another layer of quality to the Blues’ midfield.

Josh Tynan St Kevins 

The former Demon arrives at Skob from Essendon VFL, which is where he came to know new St Kevin’s coach Anthony “Plugger’’ Lynch. Tynan, 28, now works for Lynch and he’ll play football under him too. The versatile right-footer played two games for Melbourne in 2012 after being drafted from Gippsland Power and also had VFL stints at Frankston, Port Melbourne and the Bombers. He’ll be a good VAFA Premier player and a popular clubman.

Aaron vandenBerg Old Xaverians

The game got a little harder for opponents of Old Xaverians in VAFA Premier when vandenBerg joined the club. The 28-year-old retired after Melbourne’s AFL premiership. His contribution to the campaign was four games, taking his tally up to 47 after making his debut in Round 1 of 2015. No doubt it would have been quite a few more if not for injuries

Wouldn't want to be playing against AVB in the VAFA

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
