Farewell Oskar Baker

Featured Replies

Ā 

Like everyone else, I wish Oskar all the best for the rest of his footy career and beyond.

Garry Buchanarra (sp) will be surprised. He assessed MFC's list, and had Oskar as a B grader.

Thanks Oskar, best of luck for the future

Ā 

How many senior games did he end up playing?

He'll be okay

He'll make some good coin in the country leagues, or interstate comps

I don’t mean this as a bad thing but he looks the perfect Southport recruit based on their grand final teamĀ

Well spoken young man, shows that you have a lot of class and your last two years were very important to you and your teammates. Good luck with the rest of your footy career and life ahead.!!


Bye bye Oskar, thanks and good luck. Loved the video of you and your dad when you got your first senior game. Beautiful!

I wonder if Southport will try and pick him up? Sad to see Oskar go but the opportunities weren't there unfortunately for Baker.

Good luck

Best of luck Oskar, as KLV said that video of your father presenting your jumper was a very special momentĀ

The door shut on AFL footy? Surely worth a risk for some club

All the best Oskar. Mum would have been extremely proud of your achievements.Ā

Thought he might have gone to another club over the last few years but surprisingly no interest.

VFL form was always steady but just lacked that final piece of luck.

Debuted before Petty IIRC

Good luck Oskar for the rest of your footy career.

Hopefully you can get a rookie chance somehwere.

Ā 

I really think he’s worthy of a chance elsewhere. Ā Probably the Lions or Suns should definitely have a think given he’s a Queenslander. Ā His pace and strength and run through the mid/wing is what is needed by clubs. Ā 
Ā 

He played good footy late in 2020. Unfortunately he was behind Langdon and Brayshaw and Jordon over the past 2 years. Ā Now with Hunter coming in, Oskar is squeezed out. Ā 

He was a key part of the AFL squad in 21 and the Casey VFL Premiership this year.Ā 
Ā 

Good luck Oskar. Ā Sauce, you are a quality bloke. Ā 

Showed his grit in the Casey Premiership win! After a shaky start, in atrocious conditions, Oskar fought his way into the game with determination and grunt running. By the final quarter he had become central to Casey's relentless movement of the ball going forward. I think he will be picked up, and I believe well worth the risk. Best wishes Oskar, football teams need blokes of your quality!Ā

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.Ā

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
