Pity Dawes doesn't play like a KPP.

he's now a 3rd tall... & Curnow would be great IMO. to replace JW.

Dawes fortunately has more going for him than his goal tally.

He provides a contest and makes space on the ground for Hogan who likes playing with him probably for those reasons.

More importantly he has played in a final series and will add that experience to our squad.

We can make the finals this year and as they say it is a new season. I will be hoping that Dawes is still there to help lift his teammates to that higher level when anything is possible.

Dawes is a leader & is a conservative with maturity, which the GCoaster Suns sorely lack; with only GABjnr as leader & had Mal Browns boy up there. No wonder they're ship doesn't sail straight.

they had no Jnr Macs to help with Leadership, stability & for hard work role models.

Dawes = Brad Millar mark 2, and all that comes with it.

The biggest issue with Dawes has to be his body. As much as anything else, we need on-field stability, which is difficult with a player who has to pass a fitness test every other week.

I'd have Millsy ahead, in today's game style of increasing physicality. He could take marks out in front, better hands, & physically reliable. We could manage playing Miller as a 2nd tall, with a resting ruck.

i would prefer Dawes to stay, having better delivery and not having two defenders hanging off him and having some crumbers around him would certainly improve his and our scoring capability. The guy may have injuries that is because he is running flat out all over the ground every game he plays. I cannot fault his endeavour and I trust that will pay of for us when the side supports him a little better.

Dawes to Brisbane

Gigs fizzing or just a prediction?

Heard from a reliable source.

He's unhappy at Melbourne playing a decoy role for Hogan and Melbourne are said to be unhappy with his output thus far. As Brisbane badly need a forward they have decided to take a punt on him.. will be one of the first deals done.

BigFooty isn't a reliable source.

its OK mate, you don't need to answer to obsessives with no manners.

your allowed to communicate free, its Australia. I think.

copy, maybe its his post & information???

or maybe even, he's the agent ?

I hardly assume one would bother to post on BigFooty as a Richmond supporter, then post on Demonland as a Melbourne fan.

well, i heard the rumour when I was over there looking at the drats & trading, but it didn't bother me enough to go to the trouble of looking up post counts, or teams followed. I'm not interested enough in others small posts to get irritated by them, If i read carp, i just move past it as I sieve thru stuff.

getting worked up over others individual traits, is just small minded & a waste of emotional energy, IMO.. unless they are attacking personally & directly. snipers are just that, snipers. nothing more. if that gets them thru the day, then that's what they're needs are based on.

yeah, you have the right to say anything, & also receive it to. but thats what you get in return... kama. if you want an intolerant & overly obsessive forum, then you get that.

you see, no one has the right to demand someone change who they are, or how they communicate with others. that heads down the bigotry direction of trying to command conformity in uniformity.

this is the trouble... there are precious few who care here about others... mostly its about self... & then there are the "captain straight men". those who love to criticise posters, but cannot tolerate criticism of some players playing styles, &/or their courage, or lack of.

they almost care as well.

& those in the mcc almost care about those in the outer,,, & those no longer in the outer, (no longer members, nay supporters)

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
