Love bowser. Agree that it would be nice to see him perhaps rotate through a wing. Could use his skills delivering inside 50.

Should reach out to Banana Boat to see if their interested in a sponsorship deal, I'm sure clarry and bowser would appreciate it.

@Demonstone taking a nap?

*they're

Can't believe nascent typed that, what a dumbass

    Good news. No regular players want to leave MFC only fringe players pack up their gear and seek greener pastures.

    Maybe time to move Bowie up the ground because most slots down back are filled.

    No harm in plonking him in  the forwardline during practice matches  if he shows something during the preseason in January.

    Lucky break another two years. Needs to become more consistent, similar to Quanor at Collingwood.we need him to become the stopper of opposition top small forward continually.

    we need him to excel onwards.

    Doesn't have anything close to Quaynors athletic profile. 

    I like what Bowser brings but his 1v1 losses in the d50 have been very costly and he is our weak link down back in that regard. 

    I think he'd be a very handy half forward with his skills and nous around goal.

    Well he's not a patch on IQ. Has quietly become just about the best mid sized defender in the comp

    You have totally contradicted yourself, Rivers is better with more upside with probably 20 others better than Bowey in the comp….but hopefully he’ll get there but be realistic, our friend.

    Bowey is nowhere near Quaynor at the moment. 
     

    IQ is good at defending, good at releasing players further up field, and good at setting up and getting on chain connections. Plus Quaynor’s physical pressure is vastly superior.

    Think he is talking about Isaac Quaynor being the best mid sized defender, not Jake.

    Marlion Pickett debut in the AFL grand final is for me considering his challenges in the past being in jail etc.

    Goodwin's 2 flags in his first 38 or so games is another one.

    Really admire Quaynor as a player. Quickly establishing himself as one of the best lock down small defenders in the game.

    His physical strength for such a young player is very impressive.

    Won some crucial contests in the grand finald and throughout the finals series.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • POSTGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
