Played with him for an interleague game then against him where he was at Brock Burrum.

Taught him everything....?

Think Casey, and protection for some of those young lads on our list.

I am going to give the club more credit than that.

He is obviously depth - no one picked at ND68 is anything else, but none of our forwards have lit up their names - he is a mature age forward who should back himself to compete for a spot. If he is a natural forward with good movement then he is immediately ahead of any other tall forward on our list.

We were caught out last year with back ups for Max ,now we have two mature age Ruck forwards just in case we need them.

Good selection.

As perplexing as a I find it I do like former fat blokes, bald guys, and Bull Smith and Vanders were two of my favourites and weโ€™ve missed having a hard country lad who isnโ€™t afraid to crack a few private school heads.

Maybe we can sort out the log jam on the list after this year and get some value from this pick.

That's ridiculous. You don't waste a list spot for that. It's not the 70's VFA comp.

As I have already stated, this was a puzzling selection

ย 

Well welcome Aidan.

I'mย  not for one moment comparing him to Ponsiadly in terms of ability ....ย  but, someone(s) has seen something and we'reย  prepared to roll a die.

Sometimes it's about opportunity and effort.ย 

Well he'sย  shown effort and application and now has an opportunity.

No idea what will result. Am genuinely curious though.

Good luck ๐Ÿ‘ย

A mature aged (turns 25 in March) 193cm muscled up assassin.ย  Play him on Maynard on KB!

A peculiar selection.

Seems a waste of a pick.

I'll be mildly shocked if he plays ten AFL games.

He's now a Melbourne player and I support him. You can't trust in Jason Taylor's belief in potential only when it suits you.

From the AFL Website Set'24.

AIDAN JOHNSON
โ€œBig Sammy Conway and I were talking about it with (former AFL ruckman) Peter Street. He (Brayden Crossley) is a dominant ruckman, he is probably the best ruckman in the league, and we knew if we could nullify him to less than 70 hitouts with crash and bash and wear him down we could be able to get them.

โ€œI moved down from Albury and Iโ€™ve had a pretty serious knee injury for the past two and half years. This year I got my body right. I dropped about 13kg. I felt on top of the world and it has all come together. It was hard work and Dom Brew has just been massive with that. We work together as well so we do a lot together. I was in a pretty dark place with all of these injuries, not thinking I was going to get back, but he helped me work through that.โ€"

Can we just bring Dom Brew across as well? Seems we've done everything but...quality human deserves a go surelyย 


Perhaps heโ€™s a younger version of Tim Membrey that people wanted to recruit?ย

That's a Randy Savage flying elbow drop.ย 

A classic Jason Taylor "smokey"! Love it!

Welcome to the Demons Aidan Johnson!

That's gotta be his nickname now eh?

The "Albury Assassin"! Play him on Brayden Maynard and let's spill some blood on the footy field! Hahaha! ๐Ÿคฃ

Completely underwhelming selection.ย 

We should have left the spot free and invited some kids down to audition over the pre season.ย 

193cm ruckmen are about as pointless as 32 year old backup ruckmen.ย

Nar after seeing highlights.... I LOVE HIM..

GOT A LOT OF CAARRRNT ABOUT HIM๐Ÿฅฐ

Iโ€™m taking a guess here and know only what iโ€™ve read on this site. But, with the ruck rules the way they are, ย these bash and crash ruckman can now at least nullify far better players. Look what happened to Grundy in the GF and how the North Ruck Tristan Xeri plays.ย 

Knowing JT he wouldnโ€™t โ€œ wasteโ€ any pick.ย 

JVR back up. Needed a key forward who competes in the ruck, so it makes sense in that regard.

ย 

It doesnโ€™t make much sense. BBB and Schache gone and we're back playing 6 talls in the Casey forward line.

Assuming Campbell rucks:

Jefferson, Fullarton, Kentfield, Verrall, Johnson and Melksham.

Will no doubt be retrospectively given 5 weeks, now that he plays for the Dees

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
