A free defibrillator perhaps?

I'm not sure I'd want a free defibrillator with "Demon Spirit" branding. Bit of an omen....

It's illegal to knee players in a ruck contest

pzzzpoor umpiring and match review.

Don’t worry.  There will be a first suspension sometime and undoubtedly a Demon. 
The MRO is such an inconsistent office.

Does anyone know the lightly built guy with the early Bjorn Borg hair stylings and wearing #36? And no, it wasn’t Kozzie.

It could have been Harry Demattia from the Dandenong Stingrays. He was at the kid's clinic today in MFC gear signing autographs for the masses.

I spoke to Jake Lever today at the kid's clinic. He was 100% adamant that he was playing Monday night. In his words, "I'm definitely playing Monday night. Unless I hurt myself at training between now and then".

 

I also had a chat to big Maxy Gawn. He said that he was playing too. That was if they picked him, of course.

Looks like him.

Interesting why he'd be in a full dees kit signing autographs..

It was definitely him. I think the players were having a bit of fun with it. The kids were trying to get the camerman to sign their books.

I'd like to lay a bet that there will be two suspensions from the one game - the reason is that we utilise two ruckmen in games these days. sd

Thanks TK I heard it from the horses mouth as well today at the kids Clinic Jake said I will be playing on Monday. That was some Clinic never seen so many kids in the Red n Blue in the one place. All players were fantastic and signed everything put before them, the only players missing were BBB, Spargs, Kozzie and Petty.!!

Was Sparrow there? I was there with my daughter and she was disappointed as we did not see him during the signing procession.

No, my daughter was also keeping a keen eye out for Tommy, but alas. Can't complain though, got a signature and a g'day from every player that was in attendance, a great day out.

Yes, Tom was there and he was signing autographs and taking selfies. His group started near the pavilion so I suspect they signed  and left the track before the others, no delayed concussion

Oh no. My daughter will be devastated!  
I think only ones missing were BBB, TMac, Spargo, Petty and Kozzy (trying not to read too much into his absence as believe this was the period he was making a decision with his family 🤞).

Confirmed by Cal Twomey on SEN this morning. The Dandenong Stingrays are one of the pathways to Casey Demons, he may have been invited to train with Casey and may be pushing for a VFL game. Twomey also commented that he is a highly talented cricketer and has yet to decide which sport he would choose. Described as a potential top-20 pick

Or as dees fans like to call a top 20 draft pick - a Jackson
