Much more pleasing than Rising Star this week was Roo's up the ground movement. Lot to like about his solid play yesterday moving in and out of congestion..

Impressive contribution from young Joey

Stayed in the moments, some great work higher up the ground in traffic and only saw him beaten once in a 1 v 1 vs very credible oppo in Weitering

Another small hop

Never in doubt.

😉

Now he just needs a quick 40 goals in the second half of the season and we'll have our fourth Rising Star winner. All talls, which is odd.

Does this help his brother's draft prospects?

Woo hoo . . . love the Roo.

I've watched every young tall forward that has come to the club in 50 years. Outside of Jesse, no one is better than JVR at the same stage of his career.

David Schwarz?

And to all the previous posters who said he was no hope …maybe you can understand why more “positive “ posters get so sick of the negativity. Well deserved JVR ..

After his first few games, I saw a strong likeness to Schwarta in the way Roo plays, and I still see it!  Long may it continue, sans knee recos of course!  Future star of the comp.

I love Roo’s set shot kicking action. Lots of Dunstall and Lockett vibes about it. Well studied and precise.  Looks like 40 metres out is about his limit but so it was for those two.

I saw young Ox - uncanny resemblance in his movement and his swaggering body language.  Very disciplined set shot actin - maybe he could join Mr Williams in a workshop.

Hopefully he isn’t as enamoured with his hometown as others.

Magnificent recruitment and development from the club. Pick 19 is a steal.

Jacob looks a great prospect. And critically he has that insane will to compete and win. That celebration after his goal was so good.  He wants this bad and he is as tough as nails.

Going early but I think we might have one this week.

Just can’t decide if it’s going to be Judd McVee or Jacob van Rooyen.

What does 'She, who must be obeyed think?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
