Demon Jack

Where is everyone? Lucky if there's more than 25,000 here at the moment.

Swans look like the real deal this year. Credit to them. Parker, Mills and Adams still to return as well.

I hope so! It'll keep Jim Stynes' consecutive games record intact!

Really hope Billings gets a full game this week.

In: Fullerton, Pickett, Woewodin Out: Schache, Laurie, Bowey (if injured)

6. Viney 5. May 4. Petracca 3. McVee 2. Howes 1. Fritsch

If we're serious about 2024, Schache shouldn't play another game for us. It wasn't a night for key forwards, but he is seriously a liability in the forward line and ruck. To his credit, Grundy knew how to topple Max. His physicality played a huge part in Sydney rolling over the top of us in the last quarter. Viney was Viney. Excellent game, even if he occasionally tries to pull off more than he can chew. May was also very good. After all the pre-season hype, Laurie was very disappointing. Sparrow likewise. We really missed Kozzie tonight. Our smalls in Spargo and Chandler also did little to enthuse. Billings only had 2 touches after coming on as the sub. On the plus side, Howes and Windsor showed promising signs. Howes in particular looked right at home in the defensive 50. Really liked McVee's game as well. Doggies in 10 days. Plenty of time for 'learnings'

Hard to believe we ended up winning that quarter. Howes looks OK.

Spargo is currently sitting on 97 MFC games. Would love to see him bring up the at some stage this season. Can't wait for tomorrow night! Go Dees!

Sub choice? You'd think most likely Laurie or Chandler based on those bench selections.

Goals so far 2 to Gawn Singles to Fritsch, Chandler and Schache

Howes impressive so far. Loving Salem in the midfield. Adds a totally new dimension outside of the bash and crash of Viney and Petracca.

Fullerton playing VFL. Very impressive recovery by the big man considering he was facing 2 months on the sidelines.

Does anyone have a full list of our goalkickers over the seven periods? I had to tune out after P2.

Richmond with the last three goals as the first period comes to a close. 31-19

K.Brown with a rundown tackle! Hands off to Petracca who kicks his 2nd!

Things looking ominous from a Richmond perspective. Demon mids doing as they like. JVR kicks our fourth of the quart...errr....period 25-1

Kynan Brown can play. 3-4 touches already and a ripping goal from the boundary!

K.Brown is on the ground. Already has a couple of touches.

JVR nearly takes a beauttttttttty! Petracca picks up the crumbs and kicks the first.

Viney accumulating at will.

Watching on my end. Try refreshing the page FD.

Fritsch might very well be a worthy addition to this list by the end of his career, but I think I'd have Brad Green or Cameron Bruce in his place.

Considering how underrated he is in the wider competition, Viney in the top 10 let alone top 50 is a big surprise. Good to see Jack get some recognition. Think he surprised a few on Brownlow night with how good a year he had.

If pick 1 is out of the question, the only deal I could see us doing between now and the draft is one to bag another top 10 selection using our pick 11 and a future first. Pick 7 (GWS) or pick 8 (Geelong) would probably be the likely candidates. I suppose it'll depend on who we're after on draft night.
