I always thought it was Y-zeeee 😁

Only if you're American. Then again, I'm surprised his team nickname wasn't Why-zeddy.

The Irish pronounce O'Meara as O'Mara, not O'Meera.

Arguably, this bloke pronounces both of his names incorrectly. 😉

Yeah, it just shows you that even if someone pronounces their own name a certain way, it doesn't mean it's correct.  For example Karl Stefanovic is pronounced Stefarnovich

Isn't that funny! I pronounce it as something starting with A & ending with E, that wouldn't make it past the automatic censor filter!

BTW, it's Sa-lem, not Sayle-em. Emphasis is on the 'lem'.

Heard it pronounced by his family

Anyone know what his nickname is inside the club (I'm looking at you @WalkingCivilWar)

As far as I know it’s Rooey. Young Deakin Smith once told me that players tend to have “about 40 nicknames floating around” but they always seem to stick with the most obvious. Hence, he’s Deaks. 😁 So I’d say Rooey is Rooey.

Intercept mark in the dying seconds of the match 

Appointed acting captain from round 4.

7 disposals, 2 marks, 1 behind.

He’ll be a handy workhorse forward or a good key defender in a couple of years but he’s a still a fair way off.

Schache would’ve played if he didn’t manage to get himself concussed in a very Schache way.

9 disposals, 3 marks and 3 goals and one goal assist.  Its a tick.

The most pleasing thing (other than the three snags) for me was the 6 tackles.

He doesn't just bring courage in the air and an ability to genuinely split packs (which will get better in time) but he also hunts opponents on the ground.

Here's a quick lil' edit I made of Rooey's debut!

 

Speedy Gonzales work Mighty Demons! 

Rooey is the final piece of the puzzle

We now have all bases covered

Best Backline in the comp.

Two of the best wingman, All Australian Rucks and on ballers 

Elite crumbers and magic in Kozzie, Spargo and Chandler 

Very consistent , opportunistic and classy medium tall in Fritter.

The final piece being the genuine power forward in JVR

Correction: final piece the four-peat!

(I hope you don't mind my nit-picky amendment.)

We were certainly blessed in 2021. We got the long the awaited premiership and JVR with our first round draft pick.

Judd McVee, Blake Howes & Taj Woewodin too! Looking forward to seeing the latter pair at some stage.

Thought he had a great first game.

I saw him fly and almost grab a couple of marks and then he took that beauty. He floated around or over the pack rather than through it. 
 

he really did remind me of a young David Schwarz.  Hope that is not a hex!

I am very happy to pronounce him a bloody star in the making.  ❤️💙❤️💙

No pressure on the kid first game. Let him experience it....

 

PS. If he doesn't kick at least 8 I'm going to be brutally disappointed 😝

Brutally disappointed 😉

 

Awesome debut.

Only been calling for him to get a game since the norf game last year....

There's usually a few master givers of nicknames at footy clubs and nicknames can be derived from the most randomness of 'stuff'.

As an asides, I've actually been woundering where 'Chin' came from?

Had to smile when he was slapping high 5s after his mark in the last before he'd even taken his kick.
He'd still be on a high now I'd reckon.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
