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.

    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.

    • 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.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
