Quite a half of footy from our Flag hero Harmes

Would definitely be a good get! Only knock on him is he averages less than a goal a game. But 24, super athletic.

has never had a consistent run at it

reckon he could be good

Well done Harmesy!!

He could always finish

being a consistent performer was the issue

Hunner percent. Tough competition with Hogan, Riccardi and Stringer in that forward line.

To think we let Harmes go and kept Hunter

 

Kennedy is in the top 40 players in the league this year, I was pretty surprised that Carlton let him go.

How’s the KPF depth at Doggies.

JUH out for a KPD will do the dogs a lot of good. They won’t win a flag without a proper full back.

The guy I think we got wrong and I always had a lot of time for (and was one of our few goalkicking midfielders) is Harmes. We miss what he can provide, plus another around the ground mid rotation. I'd have him ahead of Sharp for example.

Of course Harmes was a considered a liability , banished to Casey and told to seek opportunities elsewhere.

After signing with the Dogs … “I felt like I could really belong to this club and feel like they really believed in me. They do believe in me that I can be a really good AFL footballer”.

Traded to Dogs in exchange for a future third-round pick (which the Dees used with future 1st in a 4 pick bundle to get higher draft pick in 2024 draft)

3/4 time Dogs v Giants

Harmes 4 goals 15 possessions, 80% disposal efficiency, 10 score involvements

I assume you are intelligent person

Harmes left as he couldn’t hold down a spot in the 22. Same as he has been dropped by the dogs. If you don’t remember all his poor games, I can refresh your memory

Hunter was brought in to fill a hole on the wing

2 separate situations


I understand his trading was cultural, but still...

you just forgot to mention he only managed 9 games last year and has been dropped multiple times

So banished to Casey and to the Dogs VFL team so maybe a Harmes issue

Dogs got Cooper Hynes too. Would have loved him.

If wishes were horse... i mean horses

1 hour ago, whatwhat say what said:

one premiership between em

Harmes 4 goals V GWS. Very pleased for him. He turned the '21 GF with his beautiful pass to Fritter in Q3.


Not sure why we let harmes go and then replaced him with players like billings, hunter and sharp

The players we’ve traded in have been a massive failure no doubt, but we traded out Harmes at the end of 2023 and if you look at player ratings that year, he was rated 30th out of a possible 34 players on our list.

So Beveridge couldn’t win a friend last year ..supporters wanted him gone ..media said he was gone (multiple times) club hasn’t committed to a longer contract ..all of a sudden this year ..he’s a genius ..,parallels anyone 🤨.

  • 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.

  • 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.
