1. Move to Tassie

2. Get "Development Club" status

3. Draft priority

4. Tassie Demons Mini Draft

5. A few million from the AFL

6. Premiership Coach

Then we might make the finals in 2019

    But it won't be "us." It'll be some new club that I don't support.

    The solution..

    Start looking at pissing off Sylvia, Davey and any players on decent coin who aren't delivering - yes Jamar, that is you.

    Put that money towards enticing Rory Sloane home, put that money into trying to get Ollie Wines back home.

    Those are the types of players we need.

    Hard at it, mid field types like Jack Viney and Nathan Jones, we need a couple more of those for starters.

    That would help much more than some silly money ball plan that has us paying delisted spuds like Rodan, Brynes and Pederson that wouldn't get a game in mid gippy two's, let alone any other AFL football club.

    We have 6-7 players to build a club around.

    Viney, Howe, Grimes, Clark, Jones, Tommy Mac.. Maybe a couple others.

    We need to look very closely at how we are developing these players, because too many players look weak, get knocked off the ball too easily and look to lack pace off the mark - when we know they had it to start with.

    Drop Jamar, Sylvia, Watts, Gillies, Byrnes, Sellar, Nicholson replace them with Spencer, Jetta, Magner, Couch, Strauss, Kent, Tapscott all these guys will have a crack, play one on one no loose men and find out who can play and more importantly wants to play.

    Hard to disagree.

    One thing that concerns me about selection - Jetta not selected because "he needs to work on some things."

    Ludicrous when you look at who is selected.

    Posters like this are every bit as [censored] weak as the players and officials they bemoan, probably even more so.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
