Why can’t he be groomed to play key forward? His contested marking is very impressive and seems to read the game well. We have Disco to groom yas a key back. Many options.

JT was just saying he has played key forward.

Sheesh those MFC highlights are pretty impressive. 

Reminds me a lot of Tom Stewart. 

Yes, good attack on the footy in the air. Bigger [censored] than MJ - I reckon he is more ready than Jefferson to help out in AFL.

Reminds me a lot of Petty. I'd be very happy with a Petty Stewart hybrid.

Welcome to the Dees Jed Adam’s, to me Adams appears a bit more mature than MJ and he mentioned that he had played ruck/forward as well. Looks like a great pickup  by the recruiters. Feeling much better about the composition of our list now, just like another young ruck then go hard at the mids, flankers next year.

He looked more like Lever than May or Petty on the limited highlights I saw. looked liked a player who backed his instincts on the intercept.

Agree but Adams seems ideal type to replace May’s position  as last man defence .As long as we can keep him

"Jed Adams is a Peel kid so he’s part of the alignment with Fremantle. He had a pretty decent rise this year from not having played a great deal of footy with injury.

“He came into our State Academy for the first time this year and with Jedd Busslinger and Hugh Davies we had a plethora of key defenders so he didn’t come in until our third game, but he took his opportunity and played really strongly in those last two games.

“He managed to debut at league level for Peel and held himself in good account until he hurt his shoulder which put him out for the rest of the year.”

“He’s an exciting prospect. He’s athletic, he kicks the ball well, he marks the footy at its highest point and he’s got significant upside. I feel so he would be a great one for Fremantle to call out.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
