Three spots now available on the list. Given the injury curse so far, we will need more foot soldiers for 2021.

Yes Tom Freeman is definitely a player who has improved year on year. Had a good game imv

We might need more recruits through SSP Supplemental top up program. I’d definitely be looking at Angus Baker (who was training with the Dons) and Will Bravo (who is training with the Hawks).

Absolutely shattering news. The youngster must be feeling so down. Hope his teammates get around him and ex players like Schwartz reach out to him.

Yes I hope Nietschke will be ok. The Footy gods can be cruel to many young men. It’s fingers crossed.

Agree Maxy is a champion. He will be known as a Demon great imv. But I saw Robbie Flower play for most of his career (from my first game of watching the Dees in 1975) and he just was highlight after highlight against the odds. He survived against thugs and could mark, run, spin, evade, kick goals, handball, kick either foot with distance and accuracy. Absolutely magic and a fantastic player to watch.

Agree. Petty Bowey Laurie show good signs. Team looked light on given a few experienced bodies out.

Can we have this Tom Mcd every week. He was ok. Maybe he’s an improver in 2021!!!

Maxis the #1 ruckman in the league and the best option for us right now. Perhaps max can be a full forward target in 2025-2026 when max is 35 and tiring and Jacko has assumed the #1 ruck role.

It’s only February

Probably it’s likely to be Tmac and Jacko as our key forwards for the start of the 2021 season. Brown and Weideman out. Break glass options apply so Tmcd to step up for round 1.

Ay yes Eddie the Multi millionaire. Got taken out of context so many times. really!!! His comments about Adam Goodes promoting the musical King Kong were a definite warning sign and low point imv.

Agreed. If JV is not ready Round 1, Sparrow or Harmes to go into the engine room alongside Clarry and Trac.

Yes I wasn’t quoting facts to be argued or dismissed. It was opinion. I hope Kobe gets the chance. Thanks for your post to clarify too. Us demonlanders have to stick together. Yes I am perhaps an optimist which appears to be rare on our board. We have been battered and bruised as Dees fanatics but we rise again and again year after year. Let’s hope 2021 is our year.

That’s the point. It wasn’t facts I was quoting. Facts is he kicked x goals. He played x games It was an opinion. Talent and tricks. I think Kobe has the ability. The club is giving him the opportunity which I hope he embraces.

Really hope Petty gets back on the park in 2021. Showed enough to suggest he’s worth development as a versatile tall back or tall forward.

Answered. Move on.

From the video content, he looked smart around goals and quick on the loose footy. But he’s stats in the Colts were low (av around 9 possessions) but good in terms of tackles average 5. It was an opinion which we all are entitled. I hope the Son of Wiz makes it. Would be a great story. Not saying he is a world beater but perhaps like his old man, he can bring some excitement. It’s a supporters board. Not always to throw dirt at fellow Demon fanatics. Some posters seem to want to just target others just to get their thrills.

Love this Goody. Teaching. Encouraging.

Yes the sniping has started already in 2021. Play on and chin up !

The premiership 22. Think big !!!

Has the talent and the tricks. It’s probably just the shear will and commitment to play AFL that Kobe needs to nail. It would be great to see him in red and blue.

May for PM seriously he must come into our leadership group Gawn captain Viney vice captain Leadership group - May Lever Trac and ...Melksham (Goodys pet)

It’s like the bullet train between Sydney and Melbourne. Six feasibility studies over 20 years costing $xxx millions. A club without a home !!! Ffs get it done

Dees to win the premiership in 2021. Have to believe to receive. There’s no reason to think that we cannot win it. We simply must.
