He'll play wing.  He might go inside occasionally but that's about it.  

I don't read replies or reactions 

Good, I can't read.

    Rubbish he didn’t flinch once last year. I think he is of a wiry ( tuck but more bulked) variety. 

    Let them try and tackle or catch him. Swans Gulden and Warner are not musclemen and they break lines and kick goals. It’s the speed and skill of which is the Duke’s no 1 wood. Get him in where the action is and to play a starring role in our redemption. 
    ( Another little gem for you Dazzle hope it’s not too complicated for you to understand ). 

    It’s not really about muscle it comes down to core strength and strength through the legs to be able to push away from opponents. He’s not ready.

    But where is he???

    When we played Richmond last year Dusty was said to have uttered "[censored] me! That bloke (Windsor) looks 12 years old"

    I'll take Dusty's word for it and leave him out of the centre for now.

    Not much of a tackler is Langdon so I can't see him in the midfield for to long. He does cover great space though.

    And both Warner snd Gulden did not play mid in their first couple of years.

    The article also mentions that Max Viney is helping all players with tackling technique this year... Jiu Jitsu and grappling

    Jack has transformed his tackling from multiple suspensions into a wonderful "drag the to the ground locking one arm up as he does it technique".
    Kosi has really pulled back on his aggression. The last suspension was ridiculous as Moore slid low with his legs.
    I reckon this will be awesome for Kosi and the whole team.

    Absolutely stoked and I don't understand why it hasn't been done sooner.

    Max was teaching this last year at least as well

    What on earth does flinching have to do with whether he can play as an inside mid or not? Bizarre take.

    You don't just throw a skinny outside kid straight into coalface when we've got the experience and bigger bodies to do that.

    Why the need to break him so early..

    Let him continue to develope on the outside. His speed and rebound off half back will be critical this year and once he's had a few pre seasons in the gym and builds his fitness up then throw him in if need.

    He benefits the team already in his own way with his outside speed and run. Leave him there.

    Hmmm, Langdon trialling as mid and Goody says we have found a nugget.

    He said similar after seeing Disco play a half forward in the VFL and played well in his 1st 2 AFL games.

    Having said that I think Langdon would be used as a 'mix it up' rotation with a few others as a mid.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
