Feel free to give your opinions

So far the Demonland voting members have decided on the most preferred back 6 defenders for 2009 as: -

BACKS: WHELAN WARNOCK GARLAND

H-BACKS: RIVERS MARTIN C.JOHNSON

(Not necessarily in those positions)

Now give us your Forward Six selections - Good luck!

For the record my starting 6 are: -

FWD: - SYLVIA MILLER WONAEMIRRI

H-FWD: - DAVEY BATE ROBERTSON

All the best.................

It makes it tough to select a forward and back six, given the rotations in footy these days.

PS. I didn't see this coming :P

Maybe I should start a preferred midfield 6 thread. <_<

:rolleyes:

I take it your putting Davey in the midfield?

I'm not sure how you can gather that from my comment :o

No I gathered that from what I thought was your vote - which was rather quick after i first posted...

I shouldn't assume this...but your secret is safe.....unless you either plan on putting davey on the bench, emergency or are considering trading him?

HF: Davey Miller Bate

F: Sylvia Robbo Wonaemirri

Even if we draft watts, he will take time and this is my starting forward line for 2009. Newton can hopefully displace Robbo although I doubt it.

Posted

Forwards:

talls: Miller, Newton, (PJ resting ruck?)

mobiles: Bate, Sylvia, Robbo

Smalls: Wonaeamirri, Davey, Maric

Garland for me, could be the surprise packet. if we continue to develop 4 other key defenders (Martin, Frawley, Rivers and Warnock), it would be well worth giving Garland a go in the forward line. hes so quick, agile and versatile that it could pay off big time...

HF: Davey Miller Sylvia

FF: Wonaeamirri Newton Robertson

Bate to midfield. Robbo to play for another 1-2 years to develop young forwards.

Love the idea High Tower, just wondering how you plan to manage the problem that certain players can play in several positions - Davey is the best example as in different people's eyes he could be back, forward or mid... which might mean he misses out on all three

Bruce will probably not make your 22 but I imagine most of us would have him in for 2008

Not a criticism just a question :)

Like your thoughts on Garland. Garland did drift down to the forward line against Richmond. Kicked a goal. maybe we might see a bit more of him down there this week, courtesy of Bailey. We could see this next year when Rivers is back in.

The 7th most voted defender on Demonland was in fact Frawley.

Have a vote for the last remaining four spots, and include seven - four on the 'int' and three on the emergency list.

edit: didn't make sense...

;) Someone's on the ball...!

Cheers.

Well, Schtaker match committee selectors have tough decisions to make...........so now you guys are in their shoes.

The players that end up missing the interchange or emergencies don't necessarily have to be considered "dee-listed" ;) , just pretend they didn't make your side and they're playing at Sandy, or in next years case Casey! :lol:

yes but that may still well result in Davey on the bench or emergency when he is clearly best 18

midfield is going to be a tough one which makes me happy

Schtaker, we'll manage it no problem. As long as the votes keep pouring in, it will sort itself out. It may also mean Davey in the starting 18!

For example, the 7th highest voted defender is Frawley, so he might get named on the bench......once the 6 forwards are settled, the midfielders will be done, then the players that miss each section will be pooled and the bench will be voted on out of 7, as Rogue said, the 3 left over will be the emergencies.

Newton

Miller

Robertson

Bate

Wonaeamirri

Davey

davey could obviously play in the middle, perhaps maric to take his spot?

Posted
I had Davey in my midfield so my forward 6

Sylvia Miller Bate

Newton Robertson Aussie

Yep.

Posted

Davey Miller Bate

Wona Robbo other

The other being Watts (or whomever we draft as a forward). If he (draftee) is too raw, then put Sylvia there. Newton is gone. Useless IMO

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
