No other comment needed, BBB Cooked, Petty, pathetic forward! Premiership window closed, play him for rest of the year, lets see what he's got!

Haha good god no, the kid would be crushed, physically but mostly mentally. 

He seems to be slowly turning the corner a little at Casey, that’s where he needs to stay.

That  selection would be surely the definition of desperation .He has shown absolutely nothing to date and doesn't even deserve consideration .

Have u watched his last 3 weeks??

Lack of effort and competitiveness forward of the ball is our issue, he addresses neither

Would be feeding him to the Wolves if we played him now, plus JVR and Fullarton can come into the side.

If we out of contention with 5 Rounds to go, then I would give him a go.

Yes I have watched him closely .He played a reasonable first quarter yesterday and that was it .Not even taking  a grab which was his one strong area .Maybe he will develop but I'm not in the least bit confident .What I am confident of is that he is not remotely at present up tp AFL standard .

No.

He plays one good quarter every game. Sometimes it's not even a quarter, more so 15-20 minutes maybe.

Give Fullerton a go first. He may not be a world beater, but he is athletic and will give a contest. Jeffo ain’t there yet.

I have, and he is showing some promising signs, so why ruin that by throwing him to the wolves before he's ready?

I'd consider giving Sestan a run in the seniors before Jefferson. Has made some good strides this year.

He is developing well, gets to all the right places and presents in the air well. But he is another season away from being AFL ready and will be less effective than Petty or BBB.

Is this the prompt to call him Juice Jefferson, after your previous full forward love child?

There are forward issues but it’s the midfield performance that’s killing us. We are missing Gus big time. Oliver is a shadow of his former self, we are a 30 plus possession midfielder short.

What has our list managers done that's left us in a situation where we our best key forward is 187cm.

JVR has shown some promise but he is as fustrating as Petty at times. 

Petty was a premiership defender and we throw him forward because we can't trade/draft any one [censored] decent.

He's just starting to find his feet at Casey Picket.

Showed some very positive signs early on Sat but then dropped away again.

Fullarton should've played ahead of Brown to see what he can offer and as a chop out for Max (not Petty!).

Petty's efforts / energy would have been better served playing more time forward and as an outlet mark / interceptor down the lline tonight.

Agree but again he is presently struggling to play out 4 quarters at a high level for Casey.

He also seems to lack the white line manic attack at the ball to take the next step.  Might find it as the year goes on but will need to imv if he's to get the call up.

Always looks better playing inside 50.  Pretty good by foot as well.  Is he a possibility to replace Billings?  Kicked four goals yesterday but very quiet after half time.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.
