For some reason I like a forward line of JVR, Schache or Petty, Fritter, Kossie and support cast with Max and Trac visiting on occasion.

I'm noticing a few posters are starting to exclude Ben Brown from our projected 2023 forward line.

Would love BBB and TMac in there but knees and feet seem important parts when playing footy.

Jeesus.. go and have a look at Schwarz's highlights reel before he was Ox...if he's that good then they should sack the whole FD right ..NOW for not playing him already. 

It must be the silly season?

Of course you may be correct,which will be exciting...

Better than that Ruski ballet dancer guy?

I agree

his highlight reel isn’t getting me high

hopefully I can’t get a better buzz in 23

The difference with young players at MFC is there is no need to rush.these days

Earn your spot and try and keep it, Bowey being the perfect example of trying to keep it

JVR will have all the incumbent medium and tall forwards looking over their shoulder, a good thing for the team

Nice Instagram post of a fit Tommy Mc running around his local track at Edenhope

On other young players my tip is keep an eye on both Taj W, who improved week to week and Blake Howes, was close before injury.

If everyone stays fit, we finally have cover all across the ground

Have high hopes for Woey. Look forward to how his pre season goes.

Tmac is the glue which makes our forward line tick between the talls and smalls.

With the recent loss of Jackson returning to his home state of WA, I was worried JVR may follow suit in the coming years. 

When they get good then they get home sick

If BBB plays like he did in the final third of the season then he should never play again in the red and blue.

Moved like the mechano man in cement and had Chris Dawes concrete hands.

Frankly unless they learn to kick it to BBB on a lead all he can do is " his best" with what he's got.

On a lead and with his inspector gadget arms he's almost a weapon. Certainly that's  a change up from the dumb predictable bomb to the forward pocket boundary line. 

Making him play against his strengths is like Neeld trying  to make Liam Jurrah into Byron Pickett.

Hopefully both he and TMac have another season in them and a flag to go with it

10-12 games played and goal a game average would be a satisfactory output for his for season in the seniors. anything more would be a bonus.

Even if he can just get one out he's a chance to mark with his reach instead of flying against 2 or 3 opponents.

    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

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
