Elite agility, vision, decision making and kicking skills.

Very good speed, strong at the contest.

Incredible maturity.

The kid will explode when allowed to run into the midfield.  They are clearly protecting him until he beefs up a little.

Already very good, and will become super.

Great rookie pick.  Found an absolute gem.

Just hold yours horses there HT. The kid is just playing his 2nd year. Looks allright, but many a year to go. Champion gets thrown around all to easily round this place. 

 

It's amazing how little this guy gets recognised by the broader football community. I've rarely seen a second year player show as much poise and composure as he does.

I'm predicting him and Rivers to be our two best players in a few years' time.

He's a champion, GTG!

I'm not him.

He looks better than alright.  Those that know footy will know.

Bernie Vince gave him the 2 votes in the Golden Fist this week. Bernie knows his stuff.

 

Will eventually be a midfield star as well.

Lloyd gave him votes too. The broader AFL world is starting to notice.

As good as they were I thought Langdons game was outstanding- doesn’t get a lot of cudos


Could go down as one of the best rookies in history the way Juddstar is developing. Reminds me a lot of Pendlebury, especially his calm head and composure under pressure. So happy he plays for the Dees, priority to get him signing an extension IMO.

Yep. Thought Lingers was BOG.

He really is a joy to watch. His balance is unreal, Mr Cool and already a fan fav.   
At the ground you wonder how he escapes two players after picking it up. 

 

 

 

 

Silky skills and footy IQ, I mentioned early on that he reminded me of a young Hassa Mann. Judd McVee is just so impressive, 9 coaches votes against a top four side how good is that.


Outstanding game in the wet. I didn’t see him fumble or Second grab the ball at all. 
 

No 2nd year blues with this kid.. Solid and extremely reliable

Need to offer him 5 year contract soon. Let's lock him in long term

Agree. That way, if he backs out after three years, we can demand more at the trade table.

 

Totally on board with this. The guy is pure silk. Cut from the same shiny cloth as the previous Silk at the Hawks.

Agree with poster above's comments as well in regards to comparisons to Pendles. He just finds space and always does something good with the ball. And when he needs to, turns on the speed and glides (dare I say a bit like silk).

 

Unbelievable rookie pick by Taylor and just a joy to watch his career unfold.

Agree I hope he can get into that on-ball rotation eventually, will add another dimension to that Midfield.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • PREGAME: Carlton

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
