I'm glad your not coach Roost it, It's this type [censored] talk that keeps average players on a list too long. It's people like you, That like they way Bate goes about it. Listen up up mate and I'll spell it out for you. DUNN & BATE were taken at picks 13 & 15 in the 2004 draft HOW LONG !!!!! does a midfielder/forward need to develop THEY ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH !!!!!!!

Go back to bed simple.

I'm glad I'm not coach as well.

Me expressing my opinions of players and their potential for improvement does not keep anyone on the list for too long. As much as I'd like to be able to talk to Dean Bailey regarding players I just don't have that contact.

People like me, please tell me, what sort of person am I?

I'm listening and thanks for spelling it out, did you use a dictionary? there's some big words there!

Currently neither is playing particularly well, I'm certainly not saying they are. What I am saying is that in my opinion, Dunn has the potential to change his ways regarding contesting the contested ball. That is all I'm saying but thanks for your input. Bate is for another thread.

Regarding going back to bed, I think I'll just hit the couch and read my book. Now that is simple!

I will reserve my judgement on Dunn (career wise) until the end of the season on principle. IMO this is probably the best opportunity he will have to exhibit his football repertoire if given the opportunity - which he seems to be getting so far this year. To me it stands to reason to give final judgement after he has been given that opportunity ie after round 22. With injuries mounting and many youngsters for him to shine out against you would think he would show his hand this year. On the same token, if he hasn't shown a standard of football far superior to what we have mostly seen from him then he is in trouble and won't have anyone to blame but himself. Being moved around different positions probably doesn't help but he has to be in it more and look like a strong and willing contributor. If he doesn't take the bull by the horns throughout the remainder of the season then it could be sayonara.

The "hard stuff", as Dunn puts it, holds no fears for him. In fact, nothing on the footy field really does; backing into packs, poor form, criticism - it's just part of the game.

The hard stuff holds no fear for him, perhaps he should start proving that. I'd also question poor form not being a concern, of anyones

There's a very funny, and I mean very funny, paragraph in that article.

Can anyone pick it ?

lacks the hard stuff, and doesnt make body contact. probably not his own fault has only brad miller to look up to which isnt the greatest role model in playing hard and crashing into blokes.

What we think is irrelevant. What Bails asks of him and how Bails sees the success or failure of that jon is what matters.

Yes true. I think if DB keeps dunn in the team this week he must be doing something right that we dont know about.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
