    I'd like to think we can play them both as they're different kind of players and offer different assets. Melksham to play the defensive forward on the oppo's best defender such as Stewart or Andrews. However his offense is also weapon as he's a natural goal kicker. Meanwhile McAdam is purely an attacking forward who can take a mark, either contested or roaming high up the field on the lead. If both are to be regular fixtures, one of Turner, JVR, Petty or Chandler would need to lose their spot in the forward line. (I predict Petty finds his way back into defence by season end).

    I agree that it is a matter worth discussing. The natural home for any such thread would be "General Discussion" board, which is intended for non-footy related topics.

    Fly for some marks? Bee a forward target? Flea from tacklers? He mite otherwise consider cricket.
  6. Roost it far
    Goodwin appears confident. i like that. I think we'll beat them with a systems based approach. Whilst I agree it's a football forum but we've got a woman dying every 4 days, stats would say men on this site are abusing woman.........the men on here have likely got a friend who abuses his partner so whilst maybe we don't discuss it here it's worth thinking about how we as men can do better, because doing nothing won't help.

    So we can say that about players from other teams?

    There's no need for an apology @kev martin I'm open to discussing this topic, provided it's handled with civility and respect. It's a significant social issue. However, it's important to acknowledge that discussions on some matters can sometimes become intense. This is why political topics are not allowed on Demonland. Granted this certainly isn't a political issue. We aim to prevent these intense debates from spilling into the footy discussions, which could potentially disrupt and close threads. Our moderators lack the time and training to manage these issues to everyone's satisfaction. In this instance, I had at least two women express discomfort and a feeling of unsafety due to the heated nature of the discussion in that thread, and they were not alone in their concerns. Administering this website can be particularly stressful, especially this year, and I've come close to shutting it down several times. I welcome discussions on the topic of domestic violence and societal violence against women. Anyone is free to initiate a thread on this matter. However, please be aware that if the discussion becomes too heated, it may be closed.

    Very close! Carlton and North Melbourne played each other in 1999 with no GF appearances since.

    Hopefully my last post for a while. It is difficult for me not to introduce social issues into discussions about footy. I'd to thank those supporting me and encouraging me to continue. Demonland contacted me and expressed that it wasn't the people I thought who got me censored. I apologise to any aspersions I alluded to concerning those who had contrary thoughts about what is posted. I also apologise to Demonland full heartedly, they expressed that the subject matter is susceptible to get out of hand, at that is why subjects such a those brought up get deleted. They don't pander to any of those groups I suggested they pander too. Thank you Demonland keep the good work going.

    Yeah but then we'd have to put up with the media circus around why the clean-cut, good little Italian boy from the suburbs suddenly became a thugster.

    Goody sounds very confident about this week. I get the feeling many plans have been worked out, hopefully the Players can implement But i haven’t heard Simon this confident for a while Interesting

    MLB has a looser model around spending caps. i understand teams you can spend over a nominated cap but every $ over is taxed at a rate that scales up the more you spend. A luxury tax as such. Not sure how effective it is or where the money goes.

    Just talk football, it’s not hard to understand.
  19. layzie
    Oh, that I can get around. No problem at all.

    If there's one thing we can commend the AFL for it's how the draft, soft cap and other factors have led us to the even competition we have now. Sydney, the Bulldogs and Melbourne have broken big premiership droughts in the last 20 years and whilst Hawthorn, Geelong and the Tigers have won multiple premierships they've all also had some tough years. Not only that but I think nearly team has played in a GF since 2000 except GC? - could be wrong on that.

    No and still feel guilty for not doind it should have crashed my walker into them

    Based on our Bench (if that's where the sub is coming from) then it has to be between Laurie and Woey. Since Woey was played in Salem's position I would assume he will be given that role again this week. Therefore the sub is likely to be Laurie again.

    Apparently domestic violence is a footy topic after all. It is a societal problem, we need to do better. Grown-ups can multi task after all. The AFL is taking this on, we should too. @kev martin

    He wasn't with the Casey boys (Demon listed players only) and I didn't see him with the other players on the injury list (Salem, Bowey, Spargo & Melksham) who were doing some work with the trainers after the session.
  27. The heart beats true
    Not players, but supporters are free to give him hell. I actually think he’s lucky the first game is their home game. People will rightly boo, and they’ll just out cheer us. It’s a shame because I’d like the AFL to hear our frustration in a very unavoidable, hard to ignore way.
