All Australian 2015 - no Demons in squad


Chris

Recommended Posts

Once again not a single Demon player has made the 40 man All Australian Squad.

No Vince makes this squad a joke.

Selectors are (as far as I can work out) Gillon McLachlan (chairman), Kevin Bartlett, Luke Darcy, Mark Evans,Danny Frawley, Glen Jakovich, Cameron Ling and Mark Ricciuto.

Darcy is a disrespectful [censored] who has it in for our club, the others seem OK.

Yes but we are one of six Clubs to not have a single player (and during the year we still beat the Western Bulldogs who have five players)!

Shame, but look across the squad and who would you leave out..?

Dane swan comes to mind, has been good but Vince has been better.

Unfortunately while Bernie had a lot of very good patches, he went missing for 3-4 games a time, two or three times. His last four or five games, he was pretty much unsighted except for the last round.

Unsurprising.

Nathan Jones was far more deserving last year than Vince was this year.

That said, Heath Shaw? Over Tom McDonald?

Wow.

Wow.

Disagree except for the last 4 weeks or so, this is about the whole year though, not just one lean patch. I think the last few weeks would have taken him out of the team but not the squad!

Swanny also had a few games where he did SFA.

Swan out, Vince in.

Rory Laird???? Who the hell is that? Swan, Ibbo also lame selections.

Rory has had a good year but Shaun Burgoyne has done nothing. He is there on reputation alone. Averaging 9 kicks and 10 HBs. Pathetic.

Michael hurley. FMD what a joke

TBH I have taken no notice of the AA since they refused to include Adem Yze years ago. Claimed that a player had to put in a number of years of solid performances to get in the team. Farkoff, 2001 Yze average 22.2 disposals, 4.8 marks and 1goal 1bh.

SIX clubs got none

ONE club got one

so i don't think we were singled out. it is just pretty skewed to 11 clubs

TMac was in AA until Cloke decided to put in a big one on QB, after that it took him about 8 weeks before he showed anywhere near his capabilities.

Vince I would've thought he'd get in the squad, he's had a sensational year. But not a huge surprise given our year.

Heath Shaw has been excellent this year, will get in the team.

Surprised Armitage and Vince didn't make the squad.

    POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs Western Bulldogs

    It’s Season Over for the Demons as they were blown out of the water from the outset of the match against the Western Bulldogs at Marvel Stadium ultimately going down by 51 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 21 vs Western Bulldogs

    It's Game Day, and the Demons' hopes for making the finals in the 2024 season are hanging by a thread. A loss would be the final blow to a disappointing season, while a win against the in-form Bulldogs would offer a temporary reprieve. LFG!

    DEMONS by The Oracle

    After losing their last two games in a row to finals aspirants, the Demons’ season has unravelled in the blink of an eye. They take on the Bulldogs on Friday night at Marvel Stadium in what has become a “do-or-die” contest to remain in contention for September AFL action and the reality is that they have been forced into a situation in which they are already thinking in terms of mathematical possibilities despite the fact that it’s still a close race and even with four rounds left to play.

    SINKING FEELING by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne fans were put through the wringer on Saturday and ended the  night with a sinking feeling as their team suffered a two-point loss to the GWS Giants at the MCG in front of their ailing coach and fell to 11th on the AFL ladder, a game and percentage outside of the top eight. With only four rounds left to play, they must now win every game to advance to the finals. The Demons welcomed back skipper Max Gawn and were off to a flyer as they kicked five goals to one to take a quarter-tim

    GOT AWAY by KC from Casey

    There was a stage deep in the third term of the game at Casey Fields when UTS Giants fans were deep in despair. Three and a half minutes of time on had elapsed, the rains were coming down, the wind was howling and the lights on the scoreboard on the outer brightly shone like a distress signal as their team’s season sagged on the line - • Casey Demons 6 goals 9 behinds 45 points • UWS Giants 3 goals 3 behinds 21 points. The Giants were being dominated in the wet conditions and whil
