Played for Sandringham last season, very raw but moves well.

Craig Cameron as far as I know.

 
Who is he?

Young forward\ruckman from Sandringham. 199cm I think. Played a lot for the Sandy seniors towards the end the season. Strong mark, and very mobile, has a basketball background. His kicking lets him down a bit, but that definitely improved as the season went on.

I'm sorry guys but what does this mean? Is Martin on our senior list?


Who is he?

He is a tall forward/Ruckman from Old Haileybury who did a preseason with us last year, after being touted as a possible draft pick straight out of the ammos, and then played for Sandringham this year. Can take a pack mark, but has yet to translate that ability into big goal hauls.

I'm sorry guys but what does this mean? Is Martin on our senior list?

Yep he took the last spot on our senior list. The rookie draft (where we'll select four(?) more players) kicks off in a few minutes.

Yes

From his interview on SEN 1116

did not play junior football and started to play easy football with old hailebury when he got sick of basketball and was seen and was asked to train with sandy and melbourne...he is 198 i think he said and he started as a ruckman but then became more of a forward....he doesnt have a very good kick he admits...he weighs about 100 kgs but wants to put on more weight...has a good relationship with mark williams..."this is a remarkable story" from SEN...

it seems he is extremely surprised...he played basketball for australia at under 20 level so for him to play football now and get picked up is astounding...melbourne hope he turns out to be a ruckman!! there you go critics lol...and he almost sounded like he was in tears he was so happy and surprised to get picked up...


He won the U19's best and fairest last year after only playin a small amount of games. There was a write up in the herlad sun last year about it. BOG every game he played virtually from memory

Also heard him on SEN & was clearly surprised that was picked up. Happy with this selection as shows MFC looking to development of young talent going forward. Better option that Sampi who would have been a risk given his weight etc.

But luck for Sampi - but the dream is not dead. If he applies himself and shines somewhere there is still a chance, though more remote after today!

we should keep sampi over here in victoria, play him and sandringham, train him basically if he was one of our own players!!!

Why in the world would we do that?


Why in the world would we do that?

Because he is an incrediblt talented player who would be amazing for us.

If he was willing to do that you would have to want him in a heartbeat.

Considering his only downfall was his desire.

Don't be a moron, Sampi is a wiked player. Is not fat. Take a look at the demonology pics.

Will Martin get a game.....

In the rucks I would say White, Meesen, Jamar and PJ are ahead of him.

Forwards Neitz, Robbo, Newton, Miller are ahead of him.

Could we have rookied Martin?

on the dees site it has a little snippet on martin, says plays most his footy as a defender?

Plan to turn him into a big defender?

Who's being a moron? Sampi is way out of condition, CC said so on SEN last week. I will go with his assessment over yours.

I've never seen him play back, only ever forward or in the ruck. I would think he would be a future forward, but you never know.

There's little point in us training him etc, when we have a 1/16 chance of being able to recruit him.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
    Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
