Oops! Skipped Courtney!
Think this was the year he was finally able to show us that he can play! Year after year of hamstring injuries, although I think he had a hamstring injury early in the year he managed to play a fair amount of games. I think he will become a valuable member of our developing backline.
#15 Courtney Dempsey Season Review
Re: #15 Courtney Dempsey Season Review
Courtenay Dempsey (20 games, 7 goals) 8/10. Finally broken through with an uninterrupted run in the senior side. Seemed to shake off the injury curse until very recently. Looks a class act in defence where he is able to spoil, mop up and then drive it out with pace and precision. A vital part of the team.
Expected him to poll a lot better than he did in the Crichton Medal.

Re: #15 Courtney Dempsey Season Review
Knew he was good, I just wonder how good he could be after a breakout season, injury free at last!!! Still think he could be a champion winger, a ready made replacement for Lovett

I agree Windy..,
I want to see him as a winger, and place Bachar Houli in Dempsey's current position...,

Re: #15 Courtney Dempsey Season Review
8/10 Courtney was very good this year. Great evasive skills, great closing speed and composed with the ball in his hands. Looking forward to another full season (fingers crossed).
Re: #15 Courtney Dempsey Season Review
Massive season. I'd agree with the 8/10 concensus.
Must continue to play HBF for mine. Players with the defensive side and the run and carry are extremely hard to find.
