    By the way, I agree Clint.  Pedersen has been a positive in our side this year, although his output in terms of goals hasn't been flash.

    Nice work although I must agree with RTG who argues we need a better nickname for the guy.

    I mentioned this in the Game Day thread last week, I was 100% convinced our win rate and general stats were vastly superior with Pedo in the team.

    Nice to see the stats actually back that theory up. Seems very unlikely to be a pure coincidence. Here's to another year in the red and blue for Pedo!

    It was a shocking decision to leave him out of the side against the Blues.  Why on Earth would they have made three changes to a winning side?  Idiotic thing to do.

    I think he's a useful character to have about the place. Taken some seriously good marks this year.

    I will preface this with saying I give credit to Pedo for a decent year and expect him to be kept on for one more year...

    BUT...

    You can't pick out one player and basically give them credit for wins and loses. How did the rest of the team play? What was Pedersen's actual impact (he was goalless in the majority of his games)? Who else was in the team those days? And of course, who was the opposition?

    Aside from the Hawthorn game, Pedo's games were generally against teams we usually beat or teams out of form. Only 1 of the wins he played in was against a quality, in-form opposition.

    You could use the reverse of this argument to say Hogan is a spud. We beat Geelong and Hawthorn without him, and then lost to Geelong by 111 points with him in.

    Pedo deserves another year, but this is shallow analysis.

    I don't consider myself PC at all, but there's no way I can call the guy Pedo.

    I like Pedders and his attack on the football, he crashes packs and keeps the opposition on their feet and more so than other players, gives 100%.

    Pedo, short for pedometer.

    "Pedo's wins": GWS, Collingwood, Richmond, Gold Coast, Hawthorn, Port Adelaide

    "Pedo's losses": Essendon, St Kilda, Western Bulldogs

    I agree that the occasions he was left out had me baffled.

    Don't be silly Ethan. Our moral compass calls him Pedo so it must be OK.

    Anyway, how often do you get the chance to legitimately  call a guy "Pedo"?

    When I saw Pedo at Family day at Luna park greeting kids at the gate I had to laugh.

    When he takes a mark the crowd yells Pedo!!!

    Its  an extremely unfortunate nickname but They are the ones that stick.

    We don't usually beat anyone.

    Really hope that we keep Cam Pedersen on our list next year. Great role player as he can play forward,  defence and help Gawn out on the ball. I think Weideman still is a few years away from being a regular selection.

    We beat GWS in round 1 and Port over there with him in the side...

    Because "the spring specialists" is already taken by Dawes's palms.

    Those are damning. I just could not fathom the final 2 games omission, yeah he wasn't incredible but it screwed up our structure. Instead we back a skinny kid who doesn't contribute in the ruck, and gave Watts that role whose form dropped too.

    Pedo stats were interesting,when he played we won more games. But consider what games won (team stats) and player stats would be if we played the Cats,Dogs,Kangaroos etc twice. Even the teams improvement may be non existent. Pedo is a better option than Dawes and the Weed which I am at a loss to why he gets the axe. The Weed is not strong enough at this pt in time and say no more about Dawes.

    Neither were anywhere near in-form at the time, as I said in my post.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.
