perhaps u should read ur last 10 posts before you mention the word logic

as someone else mentioned u have brought little of it today

No you expect to much with a greasy ball Mr Watts04. We are 10 goals up, whats your problem??

You still don't understand what any of us are saying. Listen carefully.

No one doubts that humidity will affect performance.

What we have pointed out, is the fact that there was no apparent effect on the GC players, therefore it is not an excuse for AFL players (as opposed to GC kids) to blame humidity. If both teams slowed down, then you may be able to attribute the lack of scoring on fatigue/humidity but you can't attribute our performance to it, where the other side are running around as normal.

key word KIDS good to see our kids are not up to it as much !!!!!

Anybody happy now? :P

so ur puttin humidity ahead of guts, attitude etc as the reason for the third qtr????

they are 18, been up there 6 months and they have better fitness and handle humidity better than tuned athletes over several years?

wouldnt it have a worse effect in the last qtr where we have been better?

u make no sense but we know that.

im the sucker for being dragged in

You have not lived in 90% humidity for any length of time have you.

Read my earlier message. Then reply.

For the record, I have lived for many years in such humidity, but as I have already explained, that is not the issue.

humidity is horrible, wife and I spent 3 months in China and it was humid as hell and we could not cope at all.

Humidity is a major factor when your running all day.

Thankyou...a man who knows. It is hard to walk 20 steps in high humidity. Your entire body just steams and sweats all day.....

I can't believe the debate on a game thread is the about the bloody humidity!!

The elephant in the room is that we are not playing well and it has nothing to do with the playing conditions. We are bottom 4 this year on what I have seen.

Skills are poor, often under little pressure. Too many who can't play contested footy.

The replies in this thread are hilarious.

We're destroying them, and have been all game.

We're up by 80 points ffs.

did not realise that this would be up for debate after watching the TIO game v Port last year!!

Now imagine if we kicked straight - 19 points, and considering Green has kicked 2 out on the full, i think Sylvia has done it a few times too... not bad.

e: This is a bigger victory than the WB managed - a top 4 aspirant who played them at home.

Haha... Terrible comment. Who is? I don't think we expect to be do we...? If we are the 8th best team this year that would be good enough I think

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
