beelzebub 23,392 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Ill wait til i see some semblance of playing as a team come NAB cup. One thing of note though, we wont recognise this new Demon side in 13 Practically half the team that will take the field next season will be different. It needs to be too...lol Hell, we'll have forwards, who can kick and hurt scoreboards, we'll have a midfield whilst raw in many ways will have ability to get its ball and move it coherently. .We've even taken to shoring up our reasonably OK backline. Might even play as a team...how novel
The Chazz 4,077 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Seriously? Absolutely I'm serious. For Terlich to come in, you need to remove one player. You've named Garland and Grimes in the position that you think Terlich could play. Sure, you could remove someone from the midfield and put Grimes there, but why wouldn't you have him in there in the first place?

beelzebub 23,392 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Except for injuries, I can't see how this can be changed in any way whatsoever. "Melbourne coach Mark Neeld said both Jones, who was originally from South Croydon and played his first season in the VFL this year, and Terlich would step straight into the senior ranks next year." I would imagine competition for quite a few positions just got more intense. Again, Im waiting to see who takes the field in the NAB to get a feel of how the new lineup will actually flesh out. Gunna be some surprises I have no doubt
satyricon 267 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 On the point of the NAB Cup whilst I think Neeld wouldn't mind winning it,I reckon for the first round were we play the two games I reckon we will see two completely different teams on the night...... 22 is too hard, still think Neeld wants to play mix and match, and looks at having at least 30 ready to go at any one time, if a side has a smallish defence go with the serious size we have now, or the speed or whatever........and nobody is safe, I reckon one bad game or not following instructions/game plan and it will be Casey the following week...bring it on......you can already see it at training they pick the guys vieing for a spot against another in the drills........

Great Ben's think alike. Most players in identical positions with Strauss and Rodan the only differences in the 22. I was tossing up whether to have Rodan in there at the expense of Strauss as well. Agree with your fringe players, in particular really looking forward to seeing how Tynan, Taggert and Evans go next year.
beelzebub 23,392 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Wrt the NAB i too would expect a bit of mixing and matching but i will take from the games a clearer picture of who might play where and how. This will then go someways to indicating whst the composite and more normal 22 might look like. I would say very few have their names already penciled in on the team sheet presently. Neeld is going to demand players earn their games and the competition for this just took a few steps upward . Be very different in 13; cant wait

Gunna be some surprises I have no doubt I would hope they are in the mix B59! Imagine the outcry if we drafted a 25 year old and Neeld said "with 2 or 3 preseasons under his belt, he should start to press claims for a senior spot"! Just because they are in the mix, doesn't mean they are best 18.

Nailed it, although I think both Taggert and Terlich will also be pushing hard for selection round 1.
furious d 477 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 I love the idea of Toumpas and Watts playing as back flanks, finally some decent delivery out of the backline. I'm with Bub on the 22 though, way too much water to flow under that bridge before you can make an informed call.
