Interesting that he has played over 100 games. 
hasn’t kicked a lot of goals, but is that his fault?

Sandringham Boy

worth a good look

    Only really seen him play a bit,  not paid much attention to the kind of player he is, if he isn’t guaranteed a starting 22 spot, would he want to come to the club?

    If we got him, who would he replace in the best 22?

    Has the same career goal average as Ed Langdon.

    Could just be wingers don't kick many.

    I like him and have always rated him.

    What does it take? 2nd round pick?

    Don't see how he fits in the picture, at all.

    Never noticed him playing on the Wing that much

    Amon is a small forward

    Ah even better...

    Definitely worth a crack in my eyes.

    Can someone post a summary of what the article says?

    He had an average start to his career, didn’t find much ball and kicking was inconsistent when he did. The last 1.5 years he’s turned into a really good wingman, up there amongst the best in the league behind Langdon. Free agent this year, so suits us as we don’t have decent picks to trade. Not sure where he fits though unless we’re going to lose Brayshaw or Jordon and Sparrow types are demoted.

    Nah, he's a winger mate.

    May have played some forward time early on, but has played the wing for a few years now.

    I must have missed those games

    He is far too small to play wing in my opinion, maybe that is why he struggles to play consistently at Port 

    Definately worth a look though, particularly as an FA

    Does he 2-way run?

    I wouldn’t say he struggles to play consistently at Port. Has been a regular in the side for a while now, good pace, great kick and averages >23 disposals per game over the last couple of seasons.

    1cm shorter than Langdon and 1kg heavier.

    Play consistently? Not sure if you mean performance or actually playing, but he's barely missed a game for 4 years and was in the AA squad last year.

    You sure you're thinking of the right player?

    Number 15 yes

    always under utilised 

    I wouldn’t play him as a wingman

    He's played wing all his career.

    Very similar to Langdon who has a big tank and two way running.

    Slick left footer.

    He doesn’t do a lot though 

    23 disposals means little in the modern game

    Lol he was pretty much nominated as an All Australian wingman last year mate..

    With more than 100 games now in the bank, Amon played every possible game in 2021 and isn’t showing any signs of slowing down. He led the club in kicks on the season and was right up there for disposals, inside 50s and centre clearances, rounding out a career best year which saw him nominated for All-Australian selection and recognised as the club’s most improved player for the year.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
