MadAsHell 4,217 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 One post and already you make sense! I think that the four players you suggest are better suggestions than the three de listings suggested in post # 506 What a shame the only two players listed that weren't in post #506 are contracted for 2016.

stuie 7,374 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 What about the rookies guys?vB to be elevated, and maybe White gone? Quote
MadAsHell 4,217 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 What about the rookies guys? vB to be elevated, and maybe White gone? Reckon they're all developing well. I'd be tempted to promote Vandenberg & Harmes and keep King & White both on the rookie list for another year. Quote
stuie 7,374 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Why are you moving White on Stuie? Not developing quickly enough for mine, especially given we already have slow burners in King and Harmes who are way ahead of him. Personally I'd rather someone a year or two older so we don't get found out so badly for injuries next year. Quote
boydie 655 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 You could choose to engage and answer the question or not. So if by some miracle he was on the list as a rookie let's say the pixies did it, would he play this week? I say probably. I am not advocating that we do rookie him. He might of but then Mission injured him, he'll be right to go in 4 - 6 weeks. Quote

Getting better every week. 6 Quote
#11-TonyAnderson 868 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 What's the contract status with Hunt? Given he has been injured for so long I'd be thinking he is nervous? Quote
Tough Kent 2,138 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) What's the contract status with Hunt? Given he has been injured for so long I'd be thinking he is nervous? Standard 2 year deal that finishes this year. They'll have to make a call on Hunt. White has moved ahead of him as a rebounding half back. Edited June 19, 2015 by Tough Kent Quote

MadAsHell 4,217 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 What's the contract status with Hunt? Given he has been injured for so long I'd be thinking he is nervous? Yeah he's certainly in danger. Reckon he may get lucky with a 1 year extension, but don't expect the offer to come until well into trade period I reckon once they know how the list is shaping up. Quote
watchtheeyes 1,429 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 What's the contract status with Hunt? Given he has been injured for so long I'd be thinking he is nervous? Delist and re-rookie? 1 Quote
dpositive 1,838 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Hi I am the Ultimate Demon and I am a new member. I am a die hard Demons supporter and everyone in my family is! Here are a few players who I have considered: - Dean Terlich - Matt Jones - Jordie Mc Kenzie - Rohan Bail Please post your thoughts! Welcome Ultimate I wont be as subtle as Song Formerly Known As, I hope your enthusiasm doesn't fade and you don't let the frustration turn you into a twisted individual as Song suggests. I acknowledge your thoughts and hope you continue to express them despite any total disregard that will happen. In fact Song, like most here, is also a fantastic supporter. All dees supporters are, as we have been been treated to the most amazing football journey with so little ultimate reward. I hope you will appreciate the wealth of experience and knowledge that is displayed in commentary on Dland, and also hope you appreciate the wit and bulltish that is also prevalent, and usually with bullet like speed and rapier sharpness and learn to ignore some of the less than savoury comments. Well I think that leaves an opening for many so enjoy and GO DEES 1 Quote

hardtack 11,106 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Why are you moving White on Stuie? From Justin Plapp's round 9 player review: Mitch White: Whitey played really well on the weekend. Some of his 50/50 contests and one-on-one stuff was really strong, particularly in critical contests. He had 15 possessions, one tackle and eight marks. Two or three of those marks were from opposition kicks, where he got himself into really good position and impacted the footy in the air. He was also able to close out his opponent really well. Whitey is growing and improving at a really good rate and he’s a pleasure to coach, because he follows instructions. He’s showing some really strong improvement, so he was one of our better players. 6 Quote

DistrACTION Jackson 10,728 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) Not developing quickly enough for mine, especially given we already have slow burners in King and Harmes who are way ahead of him. Personally I'd rather someone a year or two older so we don't get found out so badly for injuries next year. He's been on the rookie list for half a season? You're a tough man Stuie.... if you were head of our list management I'd imagine we would turn over 20 players a season. Edited June 19, 2015 by Is Dom Is Good Quote

Little Richard 6,265 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Lachie Henderson would be a good get, IMO. Flexible, good pair of hands and would compliment Hogan and Pedersen up forward, with the ability to swing back. 1 Quote
Forest Demon 4,681 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 I am actually more intrigued by the rookie list situation. The senior list delistings are reasonably obvious, but all the guys on the rookie list have shown enough to warrant more time you would think, so will be interesting to see how they juggle it. Obviously vandenBerg is a shoe in for the senior list. 1 Quote

Personally I'd rather someone a year or two older so we don't get found out so badly for injuries next year. Well thats what Rookie list are for mate other wise guys like Will Langford wouldn't be the player he is today developing on the rookie list for two years before he got a game. Quote

Little Richard 6,265 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Definitely think he will be in the mix for us. I don't see any reason as to why we wouldn't have a good go at picking him up. Fits our needs right now. But our needs are pretty much everywhere. Quote

But our needs are pretty much everywhere. If we could add him and someone like Scott Selwood as free agents, plus our first round pick it could go a long way to us making finals next season. Quote

Well thats what Rookie list are for mate other wise guys like Will Langford wouldn't be the player he is today developing on the rookie list for two years before he got a game. Just my opinion guys. For mine, I just feel we need a 50/50 balance of young developers and more mature looking for a shot types on the rookie list and I have King and Harmes ahead of White at this stage. And yes, I have seen him play. Quote
