Big boy forward which probably gives us a complementary skill set from Schache and Fullarton. Seems less mobile than them but willing to camp under the high ball and compete, which we need.Ā 

Old fashioned style of forward so Iā€™m excited to see how his skill set translates to AF L level.

Going to be an interesting Casey team with Jefferson, Brown, Fullarton, Schache and Kentfield in the same forward line!

Ah old style forward?? Big Bob Johnson says Hi!!šŸ˜‚šŸ¤©

    A little disappointed that we overlooked the chance for immediate help for a project tall who hasnā€™t really done anything to suggest heā€™d be an in demand pick in the top 45 of the national draft.

    But obviously we need more tall forward help and in JT we trust.Ā 

    Skills look nice and seems to understand using his body, height/athleticism (if destined to play back up ruck as well as forward) and output are probably the question marks.

    Had enough of project players.

    Next Tony Lockett

    I would be very disappointed were he to go, after starring for us, to Sydney.

    But in all seriousness, welcome - but be warned that there are posters lurking here who will call you a spud, loser etc if you don't become a superstar within a couple of years.

    Hard no for me and the reasons are he can kick for goal, fritta won't allow that, he can play on straight away and pass a ball at eye level and can mark so that's to many problems for us to get that out of him.....

    Oh it's sarcasm folks so settle down.

    He looks like he's quite natural at the forward/second ruck role which is exciting! amazing he slipped to the MSD

    Worth a shot. He ticks a lot of boxes from the reports. Mid season draft picks donā€™t normally pan out so I have no issue swinging for the fences with a Forward/Ruck. Good luck Luker.

    But yes welcome, the opportunity is thereĀ

    Speculative pick considering we have a few KPFs clogging the list.Ā 

    Unless this guy could make an immediate impact I would have preferredĀ building the mid depth.Ā

    Interesting message to Fullarton and Schache. Ā If they were up to it, would we be cutting their lunch selecting this kid??

    Yes we do but not many we can actually pick. I suspect shache isnā€™t playing another game at the dees, BBB can maybe play a couple more but also may also be finished. Pettys injury may re flareā€¦ perhaps it already has. Fullerton is there but not yet in frame and jeffo may mot play til 25.Ā So if Petty or JVR go down we have no one really thatā€™s ready despite a list of names.Ā

    The midfield thatā€™s needed Nibbler and Kossie to go on ball to provide some run and speed, has had to move Langdon to half forward to have run there and is suddenly relying on Hunter again doesnā€™t need reinforcements?

    I can see the case that no one really stood out, but weā€™d be silly if we donā€™t reinforce the midfield and mid/forward depth this offseason.

    Does he live on the 2nd floor?

    I don't mind it at all provided we're looking to build mid field at the trade table at year's end

    A big bodied forward who seems quite agile.Ā  Might be a nice point of difference in our mix.

    Maybe get a gun ex forward down on contract to show him, Roo and Jeffo some of the finer points of forward craft in this second half of the season.Ā  Might help fast track them a little.Ā  Couldn't hurt surely?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0ā€“4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demonsā€”but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ā€˜G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sundayā€™s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
