Thoughts.. becuase we need someone who is quick to apply the pressure that Neitz, Robbo and the like struggle to do?

IMO -No. I think he'll be good, but to me he lacks confidence and is overweight. I think he's where Flash was 12 mths before he was drafted. He needs a good solid season in the VFL to feel like he belongs at the next level.

Thats what i think we really struggled with on sunday. Defensive forward pressure.

There was no one fast enough there and hawks basically walked it out everytime.

I tend to think Davey should go back to being a forward.

id certainly be keen to bring someone like him ( if not him) in as soon as ready, but he's probablly in need of a few months beachside to get better prepared. then..by all all means :) When and if he can show he's up to it.. let him rip !!

id say Maric is in before him just at the time being.

I would really like to see Davey and Maric together crumbing in the forward line because our big fellas are not taking a lot of contested marks

Maric should naturally get a look in earlier if for no other reason than he ( and not Aussie ) is a senior .

no... Davey works in space.. Magic maric is far more familiar with the forward line.. he KNOWS where the goals are :)

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188
