Commentators smoking something.  "Fullarton all over Bryan today". What?! Fullarton picking up cheap possessions around the ground. Bryan has massacred him in just about every ruck contest no more exemplified by the grab out of the ruck and a just missed snap at goal by Bryan. Mystifying. 

Fullartons ruck contest is frankly disgusting.  95% ruck time for 3 hitouts and little presence. 
Might as well play Laurie in ruck. 


Billings goal Noah Yze in the chain. Gregory gutsy get.

Gregory take a bow son.  Superb attack, gather and give

 

Booooooo!!!!! Yze runs to take an outlet mark. Got it to Kent field and then bolted to the pocket and got it back. Then set up billing’s for the goal instead of kicking the sealer himself.

Totally agree. His ruck craft is barely VFL standard. 52 hit outs to Bryan. Not all against Fullarton but wow! And this guy can't get a game. Zero physical impact. 


Weed is absolutely dominating in the air this qt.

Again, this is not why he was recruited.  Gawn out and not selected. Essendon reserves not the strongest opposition. Schache has had numerous days out at Casey but useless at AFL level. These stats for Fullarton are meaningless.

we differ on why we think he was recruited

imo he's not and will never be nor was intended to play as a primary ruckman

he's also not an afl-standard player imo

Fullarton was clearly recruited as a ruck-forward as evidenced above. Unless you can show something to the contrary, apart from opinion, that he was recruited as a primary ruckman?

 

Bailey Laurie, Jack Billings, Blake Howes and Adam Tomlinson best of the listed Demons. Honourable mentions Ben Brown, Marty Hore, Tom Fullarton and Oliver Sestan.

Casey boys Tyler Edwards, Roan Steele, Mitch White and Charlie Peters.

So who do you think the club had in mind us a back up ruck? 100% that's why Fullarton was recruited.

nope, he was recruited as a forward who could ruck a bit

the same role jvr is now playing

he's simply nowhere near good enough to ruck at afl level

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
