Potentially a HUGE bust!

Lets hope not.

I still hold out hope, has limitless skill and if he can get fit and do 90% of pre-season (which hasn’t commenced yet) I think he will be an asset, but yep you are correct, could be. 

Although chances of a 2nd round pick being a bust are much higher, statistically speaking anyway, so trying to focus on up side :)

    Sorry.. seeing the words low kick and Viney in same passage still hurts far far too much!

    Assume you are referring to the last couple of minutes against the baggers 2023.

    I almost cried, but I had the foster lad, so it was the stiff upper lip.  Fat too much.

    Todays Training reports kicked off by WayneWussell, Winter Dan, Ditcha, Fritta and Turner, Roost it, Katrina and Ghost Writer, Kev plus all other posters has been another fabulous feast of footy information and pic’s as well. Loved every bit of it and distracted me from fretting about the Draft.

    Pup has filled out too. Liked his evasiveness, playmaking, good low kicks ( bit of Jagga about him).

    Good low kicks - heard a few other mentions of that too❤️.  Can we teach old dogs new tricks?  It did look like that in the first few games of 2024 then generally reverted to "kick it long and high to a pack".

    Would’ve love for McAdam to be putting the effort in early, was really unfit last year.

    Pretty disappointing, not sure how invested he is.

    Hope I’m proven wrong

    He does need to either commit 100% or retire now.  (In fairness he may have committed already but not be back in town just yet.)

    How has Howes been going? Hasn't been mentioned much mainly Jefferson and Bowey.

    how is Harry Sharp training?

    To my knowledge based on the reports to date Harry has not been present at any of the preseason sessions.

     He was in the same draft year at Bowey & Laurie so not sure why he is not required but it could be because he was listed with the Lions and they finished the season 5 weeks later than us he might not be required/allowed to start training until a certain date.

    Harry Sharp has not been at training so far. I suspect that Demonland is right that Brisbane finished later, and therefore Harry Sharp will start later.

    Thatll be it, he will need to have his mandatory 8 week or whatever it is break. They finished 5 weeks after us so he's probably a few weeks away yet.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
