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.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      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?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
