How many more holidays can you get when you have when you work in education?

True Biff, but I referring to a forced online holiday. I notice he's gone quiet, must be watching that BDSM show on SBS2.

• Toumpas lacks the athletic traits to make it IMO. Particularly given he panics.

Saying this after the last fortnight simply shows your bias. The last two weeks Toumpas has shown great gut-running and increased courage.

That's the kind of improvement that warrants re-selection. Same with Grimes, he is showing an increased tendency to take the game on and not to resort to backwards/sideways dinky kicks that he isn't capable of executing. That kind of improvement should be rewarded at the moment.

I'd like to see TMac take Cloke, Dunn should be more than enough for White, I'd put McDonald on Elliot, Jetta on Blair and Fitzy on the resting ruck.

McDonald's good, but I'm not sure he can take Cloke and Elliot at the same time...

Just gone off you Biffen. Teachers on Demonland provide the intelligent, considered opinions plus we correct your spelling mistakes. For those tasks alone we need 10 weeks annual leave.

You must be joking! "Toumpas has shown great gut running and increased courage""

1 Gut running doesn't mean you get the ball! 14 disposals hardly shows how this factor is critical!

2 Increased Courage?? Was it lacking from the start?? What has happened in the last fortnight that it has suddenly increased? More spinach or Nutra grain perhaps??

3 FWIW if you want to highlight some qualities which should be non negotiables, then lets go back to under 14 footy! eh?

For which we are internally grateful.

And if our guy had grabbed the one on one (can't remember who it was) and ran on to goal it would have been a stroke of genius.

IIRC he did something similar the previous week, successfully, and was lauded for it.

Such a fine margin between success and failure.

And of course far easier in retrospect

I think it was Bail who didnt contest Must watch it again. he had no body in front of Him

You must be a sad lonely old folk thats got nothing better to do but sink the boots into Toumpas at every little opportunity you get. This clearly proves you haven't watched the game and you go by stats and what other write on here.

Time to give yourself a rest on here PF. Maybe take up a new hobby? Even better go do us all a favour and support another team?

Because its quite obvious hey the name Jimmy Toumpas makes you go grey and wrinklier all the time.

And of course Dazzleman if you say it is so, then it surely is because as we all know, we don't need a google function on "Land" we got good ol rose colored glasses know it all Dazzle man! Wow you must feel so fantastic about your own "Precious" opinions! Gee in a previous life you might have been someone of "Rare" importance with your ah "Considered and extremely valuable opinions" Clearly!

I would Hope DD can back up his unqualified support for Toumpas and Jack Watts.

There is a reality DD they are not playing well, no where near what is required and hoping they will is not enough and some on here should be allowed to say it without being shot down

I'll second that!

Hang on a minute. I haven't had a holiday since April and now I've got another three and a half weeks before I get another couple of weeks off. Fair go! What do you expect of us? We spend our days with kids ffs..

Here here. Not worth talking about him so much. It's not like we're going to trade him mid season. We've got the rest of the season. After that I think its worth talking about more.

I like Toump. Runs hard to get to contests and hes a lovely kick. He also goes when its his turn. It will all click for him soon.

Fark the haters.

Reverend I knew there was a problem with HER last advise. She did not tell you which team would win.

I have almost lost all faith in her predictions

Where to from here?

There's nothing wrong with not rating Toumpas highly (I don't either), we just don't need to read about it every second thread.

Exactly.

Its getting beyound disgraceful when that muppet berates him when its not even necessary.

Posted

To avoid being totally massacred (12 goals or more)...

OUT: Soft Cox & the bottom end of the NQRs

IN: Tough nuts & other marginally better NQRs (even if they have less perceived talent than the soft cok NQRs)

Of course everyone is allowed to have a say. Thats not the issue.

The issue is at every single chance he gets PF will sink his sad little boots into him. He has a serious hate for him and everyone on demonland knows it. Even against the WB he still gave him a clip when it was clearly his best game for the club.

The kid could come out and get 36 disposals and kick 5 goals and he would still find a way to give him a kick.

    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

    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.
