Lyon was spot on as per usual. Understands exactly where we've improved and what our issues are....so glad that he mentioned skill level. I'm so tired of people rattling on about game plans and effort, neither of them matter if you can't handball 5 metres to a target and kick to position when you get it. We need classy and quick mids, and lots of them.

It was interesting to hear Garry talk in this case. It makes you wonder how he could have bloody chosen Neeld as coach when he shows this level of insight. He was dead right on the delistings and where we fall short (skills). He was dead right as well on the lowlight while DB made some idiotic joke about Vince's haircut.

Barrett just spouted off conventional football wisdom. I love Nate Jones but actually do some analysis, Purple. Nate has been up for 4 years running now. You aren't telling us anything new by saying he is our shining light. Some of the shutdown jobs Nev Jetta has done on some small forwards have been sensational.

What insight?

Blind freddie can see we have terrible skills. Any chump would have nominated the Giants game as our lowlight, that's not exactly 'insightful'. Picking out Blease and Strauss to be delisted is also obvious.

I'll give him credit for pointing out Jetta but that's where any 'insight' ended.

I wouldn't go that far. Most punters on the street wouldn't know half our problems. We know as we watch them every week but most run of the mill media types wouldn't know. Just see what Damo said.

Agree 'titan'

Lyon and insight are polar opposites, in fact that goes for a lot of the football media.

Lovely. Do you know what DL posters look like? What I might look like?

Can you please focus on DB's argument or lack thereof? Then he can legitimately be shown for the half-wit he is.

It was a reasonable appraisal for a side that has won 4 games, 66%, lost last 10 games (likely) and been humbled by fellow strugglers. GWS will get better as will the Dogs. hard to see us getting above 16th next year.

Get the footies out in November and go for skills skills and skills all summer

Holy [censored] Barrett is an absolute pea brain..

Love the bit where he says 'the body of work is what you base these things on'. Basically meaning Tyson has had one good year and questioning whether or not he'll be a future star yet somehow he knows Kelly 'is going to be an absolute superstar, lock that in'.

Completely contradicted himself in that section.

Christ I hate the guy.

Just heard Jones on SEN. The bloke is a legend a mans man and its great to have a player who leads from the front like Nietz did. I just hope he takes it one step further and breaks the premiership drought!

What most posters in D/L failed to understand is not how did garry make the neeld choice.

But WHO let garry make that choice for the football club.

Its one of the great unanswered questions.Just who gave us the idea to let garry make the choice.and how did the whole board agree to it.

    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.
