Cheers DD!

What's with the two bandages on Rivers' index fingers? (how I managed to focus on his fingers, I'm not sure :huh: )

    I wouldn't say Rivers was huge. Just ripped. Low body fat makes anyone look alot bigger. Still, better he be ripped then flabby.

    A few first impressions from those photos:

    Jack Grimes - this guy's living the dream playing for the team he supported growing up from the word go in his AFL career. He has a steely look of determination that says "superstar in the making" to me. This kid will be our Nathan Buckley I reckon.

    Cale Morton - all arms and legs at this stage but he's got some frame to build on you can just tell. If he does the right things in the gym this kid could turn into anything. I'm hoping he becomes a super mobile and strong CHF type (kind of like a cross between Reiwoldt and Carey).

    Stefan Martin - check out the size of those mits around the footy. Those over there in Melbourne who've watched him for Sandy are obviously better qualified to comment on this guy's prospects in the AFL (I live in Perth). He's got good size about him though.

    The future looks bright.

    Thanks DD

    Great to see some fresh faces running around

    Rivers - Ripped to the max

    The most exciting vision there for mine is Brock.

    A very steely look of determination & super pumped arms.

    Can't wait for 2008, lets just stay Spoon favourites right now & enjoy the ride going forward

    Merry X-Mas ;)

    He looks magnificent.

    They are all looking good and isnt it a delight to see Beamer running!!!!!!!!!!!!

    God, I cant wait till the first game. I am so pumped!

    I'm sorry but the fact that there is a photo of Moloney running means nothing. He has a groin related injury which means that he can most likely run in straight lines. If i see a video of him running side to side at 100% around cones..then im sold

    Everybody looks good and ready

    Every team says this during preseason. Fact is we have players aka Bartram still struggeling. Dont get too excited

    What have they been saying?

    I actually thought brock looked extremely toned, especially after seeing the next pic of green, Rivs does look a little bigger but not much.

    Agree with leucopogon, morton looks like he will fill out nicely.

  • Quote
    What have they been saying?

    That he has another injury concern, unrelated to his ankle. Nobody knows what exactly, or if they do, they are not willing to divulge.

    Neitz looks like he's slowly dropping weight this pre season.

    I wonder what plans DB has for him in 08 ?

    He came back from his ankle injury last year and then hurt his knee. I think you will find it is his knee that is the issue.

    The more I think about it the more I see Beamer as a HUGE key to any success we have next year. When he's not hurt, he's more than just a gutsy inside midfielder. He's the guy that can really hurt oppositions. So many other players do their jobs but don't hurt on the scoreboard... Also, he's been a non-event for about 3 seasons now... No-one will see him coming...

    Its actually two and if he cant make headway this year his career is in doubt. He has been a long time out of the game.

    He had a very good first year with us but he needs to concentrate on his decision making and his defensive skills when he does not have the ball.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
