I know there are 1000 of these threads but I couldn't find one for me to post in, so I created another. Demonland has become quite depressing and boring so what do you think would our lineup be with everyone fit and firing for round 1, 2012?

FB: Nicholson - Frawley - Garland

HB: Grimes - Rivers - Tapscott

C: J-Tren - Scully - Davey

HF: Sylvia - Watts - Howe

FF: Petterd - Green - Jurrah

R: Jamar - Moloney - McKenzie

I: Jones - Gysberts - Martin

S: Bail

E: Wonna - Gawn - MacDonald

    Far too early for this mate, trade/draft period isn't even close!

    HB: Grimes Rivers Gysberts

    C: Trengove Scully(?) Davey

    HF: Petterd Watts Sylvia

    F: Wonaeamirri Jurrah Martin

    Foll: Jamar Moloney Jones

    Inter: McKenzie, Maric, Bail, Howe

    Emergencis (extended)

    Gawn, Nicholson, Blease, Strauss, Jetta, Warnock.

    So, my obviously personal preferences are that I still like Bartram, see Jurrah mostly close to goal, and think that Maric, Bail and Howe are all going to develop nicely. Also, I still have faith in Warnock - such an unfortunate position, to be an 'essential' player but also 'fourth in line' for their position.

    I'm losing faith in Bennell, think Bate is done and Dunn is 'bait. Still willing to give Morton a bit more time. Joel Mac keeps having brain farts which undermine his value as an experienced hand in defence, which is why he isn't in there.

    Things I notice, structurally, is a lack of quality kickers in defence (Davey swinging to HB?) and the lack of a 'true' full forward (SHOCK INSIGHT!).

    just say, "Alves, Wells, Flower" gently under your breath one thousand times and I guarantee you will feel better.

    For me I would like to see us line up, I'm leaving Scully and Maric out as I don't expect either to be at our club next year.

    Tried to resist the temptation to respond so early before 2012 but could not help myself.

    B : Strauss Frawley Rivers

    HB: MacDonald Garland Tapscott

    C : Jones Moloney Bail

    HF: Petterd Cook Watts

    F : Green Jurrah Davey

    R : Jamar Trengove Grimes

    IC: Martin McKenzie Howe Gysberts

    E : Gawn, Blease,

    NOTE : I am worried about the future of both Scully and Sylvia. Obviously both would be in our best 22 if they are around in 2012. As much I would hate to do so, I reckon Howe and McKenzie would come out of the 22 for Scully and Sylvia. I might have to have a rethink - Jordie is a must in our best 22.

    Not much love for JoelMac, I think we've missed him a lot lately.

    Silly thread anyway, there's so much that's going to happen between now and round 1.

    I know it's been said elsewhere many times, but could someone please remind me of the minimum amount of players we need to delist?

    This will end up a Scully thread.

    If you upgrade Nicholson - 4.

    If you include Tapscott that might somewhat address the kicking deficiency off the backline. Assume it was an oversight that you left him out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
