So you were satisfied with his 2011?

To me he played 3 good games

Against the Swans...Against the Crows and Against the Bombers....all at the MCG.

The rest was pretty ordinary....

Jeez WYL, I realise you're a passionate Demon and you, like the rest of the Demon faithful have had a tough couple of weeks. But now you're just making [censored] up !

19 Brownlow votes knackers.

Reckon more than just me & Tricky thought Moloney had more than three good games

I was reasonably satisfied with his 2011. And he played more than 3 good games.

I don't recall seeing anything as poor as his performance on Saturday.

You said earlier that he overrates himself, but I think maybe you are overrating him.

I don't expect him to consistently turn games like a Judd but I still believe he is important to our group - at least for this season.

His best isn't brilliant but it's solid and we need it.

I do not over rate Beamer at all. He gets beaten by many of the better midfielders. He rarely beats them.

What games did he poll those votes in?

That will tell you a lot. I bet it wasn't against the good sides.

I don't disagree with that - he isn't the most talented player going around.

The same could be said for Jnr, but it was mistake to get rid of him.

That's debatable. A year off seems to have done him good, but who knows how he'd have played in 2011 if we'd kept him on?

Is this what some alluded to about the cut it with a knife atmosphere at the Blazer ceremony???

It might be that there is some Ill will between some of the 'Old Guard', and this New Broom sweeping through the club, Off field...??? Is there a chasm between some,,,, who would be coach & aren't, and those who are? (Hmmn, Matthew Knights)

It's time to Bare that closet, shake it & rattle it till those 'Ol bones fall out, then get the Chaplain to say a prayer for those who've been caught in there for too long... make they're peace & move on!

Lets all be honest here.

The players have let the club down over quite a few years not all there fault i agree.

The club has rebuilt the football department have strategy and some view of the future.

If some players cant adjust move them on.

This is no time to have friends relationships or good times this is the time to change what we stand for

It will be hard, players and people will feel hurt at times but we must do the hard things now or the whole club will remain in the wilderness and probably not exist in the future.

And if players want a friendly pat on the bum from Bailey for underperforming then i think they will and should look elsewhere.

    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.

    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.
