Weid cannot mark consistently. 

My comment was in the context of a highly rated low draft pick not fulfilling his potential.

    I just thought different style of players and development.

    Weid, athletic and big. Was given a fair run to prove himself. Looks like the bombers have also rejected him. 

    Jefferson, wiry and can leap. Struggling to even prove suitable himself for one game at AFL level, at the moment.

    You need to understand that Jefferson has been competing with some seasoned key forwards for room as a key forward at Casey. There’s Brown, T.Mac and Schache for starters so Jefferson hasn’t had a regular space in front of goal and yet has probably kicked more than 20 goals so far this year at Casey. I seem to recall that JVR had a better run at it last year and much less competition for space.

    Correct - Jefferson has kicked 21 goals this year - JVR got 36 last season

    You're probably right re more competition in the forward line this year - last year JVR was mainly competing with Mitch White who played higher up the field and Weid.

    I dunno. For mine he’s not very tall.

    @drysdale demoni just saw a notification that you quoted me on this thread but I can’t see your post anywhere.

    Initially I thought he was more like Lucas Cook or Michael Newton but he has improved in the last month so lets see how he goes in 12 months time.

    If he is still performing at the level we have seen this season at Casey we can start to get a little concerned we have another Weid mark II.  

    Weid's biggest problem even at VFL level was that he constantly got manhandled under the ball. No signs of that happening with Jefferson so far.

    As others have said he had a relatively quiet patch mid season but he's now displaying several games of reasonable promise.

    If the VFL comp can get it's act together he'll make pleasant Autumn watching

    Can we Delist you at the end of the year? Plus a set of steak knives and you might get a gig at OODNADATTA THIRDS!

    BTW HE JUST SIGNED A CONTRACT EXTENSION Which takes him to 25/26 I believe!

    Says the guy was adamant Petty wasn’t a forward…..we all have opinions and we all believe they are right. Sometimes I will admit I can be blunt with mine. I believe I will be proved correct on this one though.

    What kind of response were you expecting when you categorically stated that a first year key forward who's kicked 21 goals in 16 games delist material at the end of the year.

    Mind you he's just signed a 2 year extension deal on top of his already 2 year deal.

    Yes we all have opinions, but your suggestion of him being delisted at the end of year shows your complete lack of football observation and knowledge in today's game.

    You must have missed his follow-up post (now rightly deleted by a mod) where he was bragging about baiting other Demonland posters.  Trolling, in other words.

    Indeed I did. Thanks @Demonstone for illuminating me. I can now peer into the dark recesses of his mind...

    That's a bit harsh, in my view.

    He doesn't seem to relish the heavy going and badly needs to put on muscle but he has shown obvious consistent improvement and can mark and kick, still handy attributes.

    Will be a good player in 2025.

    • 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.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      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.
