commentators talking about the possibility of Daniel Turner looking elsewhere to get a game are obviously oblivious that he's signed until at least the end of next year...

‘Oblivious’ describes some of the commentary too. Guy from the English midlands either needs a spec savers voucher or needs to do his homework before the game commencement. Misidentification bloopers going thru the roof, George Grey is not Ben Brown.

Turner has legitimately said 'I deserve a regular go at AFL level'.

Good on him.

who for tho?

at the moment our backline is over-indexed...

talls: may, lever
mid-size: hibberd plays tall, rivers rebounds
smalls: salem, brayshaw, bowey, mcvee

that being said, turner has been clear bog this game i'd say - only player he'd replace would be one of the talls or hibberd, and even then i'd probably go tomlinson to replace may if needs be

Who is doing the camera work on the coverage, it’s hard to focus?

But Petty has been playing forward. Turner needs to come in as a third tall. The issue is that he isn’t that big. He got smashed by Casboult in one on ones. So he either comes in to play the Lever role, or he comes in to play on a more agile player. Petty as a defender is very physically strong and has the height to go with most key forwards. So he isn’t really a replacement for Petty down back. 

Pig, May, lever and disco?

Can Hibbo play as a second/third tall?

Maybe Bowey comes out injured, Disco in, Lever freed up. Salem and McVee can play the Bowey role. We were playing 3 talls with Petty, and Lever looked better as the third tall. It's worth a look.

    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

    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.
