Woewodin is such a brilliant Melbourne name. I hope he goes on and plays 300 games for us

So happy for him the family!

So great for the woey name to return.

 

On another note - how bloody good are the Dees at doing these debut announcement videos. 👏 

And not debuting him as a sub 🙄

I know we’re a limited side at present, but I’ve seen nothing in this kid to warrant a call up. I see glimpses of what he could be. But he isn’t an AFL level player at present, IMO.

What is wrong with you, man?

He isn’t ready. He isn’t even nearly ready. Howes should play ahead of him. Laurie must’ve stole Goodies crack pipe to not get a call up by now. 

I've told you before, you have the most appropriate name on Dland.

Did you think Bowey was ready? Or McVee?

Debuts are one of the best things about footy. Just enjoy it ffs!

Well deserved game. A very good string of consistent VFL performances.

Congrats Woey.

Taj to do a Bowey and to lead us to #14

Pointless trying to engage in a mature fashion with someone like this, Dw. They don’t realise there’s ways of getting the attention they clearly crave, other than to imply our coach smokes drugs. I take pity on them.

So happy for Taj. Love that he calls his dad “Ledge.” This is welcome news in what’s been a sh!ttty week thus far.

Who is cutting those dammed onions around here all of a sudden???

This is brilliant for a couple of reasons:

1 - his hard work has been rewarded.

2 - sends a strong message to the others that spots are up for grabs atm so you better perform.

Only downfall is, JJ is way behind in the pecking order and I can't see him not seeking opportunities elsewhere, but that's footy. 

Please don't play Taj as Sub!!

Best of luck young man, hope you get a run at it and help ignite us with you skills, run and dare!

Somewhere my high school friend who was OBSESSED with Shane is sobbing uncontrollably 😂

Hope he plays well, we win and Howes gets his turn next week, in another win.

Thanks and yes, I try not to engage with certain ...... people, they will beat you with their experience. I did make a mistake however as there is another who's handle is equally appropriate as they do spew garbage. I will add; it's not my way to take pity on them but wasting energy on O2 thief's is a detrimental exercise.

I too loved the way Taj addressed his Dad, says a lot in a simple way.

Fair chance that guy likes to kick puppies too 

still 1 of my highlights as a kid being at this game it was like slow motion and the roar of the crowd was something else

You don't see many goals like this anymore.

Congratulations Taj so glad to see you get your opportunity on the big stage, work hard play your part and enjoy your big moment as much as we will watching you following in your dad’s footsteps.!!!

Doubly so, because apparently he was a very good chance to be selected in round one before he broke his thumb.

That's three of the WA boys, JVR Mcvee and woey jnr, who all did some serious running work over their XMAS break back on Perth and have made the seniors.

Great reward for hard work.

The year woey snr won the Brownlow he was brilliant. In some ways he was ahead of his time- his run and carry and efficient ball use would fit perfectly into the best sides now.

Such good news!

I was thinking the exact same thing! Still got Woey senior's signature somewhere. My dad, who worked in the media, got it for me back in the day not long after his Brownlow win because he knew he was my favourite player at the time.

Congratulations Taj, well earned and I know your parents will be bursting with pride 

Made my week. Son of a gun gets a run
