Any chance Daniel Cross makes a comeback and replaces Melksham's spot on the list for 2016?

The AFL website is suggesting Cross as one of the top up players for the Bombers. Fat chance!

I would like to think that our contribution in defraying Essendon impact by taking Mikshake and gifting them a 2nd rnd pick is sufficient donation in the AFL "ensure the competition continues" game to allow us exemption from any predatory moves from Essendon.

Should we have given him one more year? His kicking and possession out of half back would have been pretty valuable this year, but I guess we could not have foresaw the injuries to Lamumba and Salem (which is clearly the answer to my own question)

Careful mate, Saty has just ridden in to remind you that you didn't play AFL, therefore you couldn't know a thing about it... better retract your statement, and fast!

Wow you really did take that personally...

Here il make it you easier for you and explain in real simple terms Pauline Henson.

I loved and admired Crossy for what he did and was one who disagreed with the decision to let him go at the time. But while he was still winning alot of the footy his penetration in his kicking was decreasing and was struggling to hit targets. 

And do you know whats even funny Satyriconhome? Crossy even admited this when i had a beer with him after playing against him this year at Albury. He now knows that he would have only taken a spot that maybe a Wagner or Hunt are playing now. We spoke about things but as he said then, in hindsight the club made the right decision.

Now was that too hard for you? Who am i kidding, you'll come back with some pathetic response like he always do.

But hang on... Doesn't he go down to training and tells em what they did wrong during the game?

Imagine your an AFL player and some crazy old fool comes down and  tells you how to play the game. Players would cringe and take the [censored] out him.

As the old saying goes.. 'Every club has one'.

He contradicts himself all the time.  You can't talk about the players if you haven't played AFL, yet he tells them what they did wrong all the time at training.  Strange.

Try not to type too fast you make mistakes

I thought you said whatever the players say to supporters when they ask questions is not to be believed, or is that not the case for you?

It is your opinion, the role he was playing didn't require him to do a lot of kicking, his role was to float around pissing on fires which he did exceptionally well

I also had a chat to him at the start of pre season

It is always you that has to denigrate, either players or posters, ever though the issue may be you, probably not, couldn't see through the narcissistic haze

Thought you might pop up and misinterpret what I said, whilst you have some backup of course, anybody can talk to a player, I just don't denigrate, if you denigrate then the player would be right to have an unfavourable opinion of you, if you discuss with them, they discuss, but as I have said, any answer from a player to a supporter is not to be believed surely?

Pathetic again eh?  Suggest maybe you and Wiseblood get a room and discuss things, maybe even a bit of footy

Possibly missing a 't'. Just saying...... (And feel free to borrow one of those full stops, yours don't appear to be working atm)

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
