Many on here consider him elite, a word that is often over used

Like in this^ post. 

I doubt anyone, let alone many, have said he's elite.

    I doubt it's many, and most would simply rate his kicking as elite, which it is.

    Good to see you still can't get over his suspension either.

    I was just agreeing with what Jackaub wrote, why don't you have a go at him?

    or do you just like going the man...

    Still in the 'promising' category at this stage I'm afraid. And that's coming from someone who is a fan of his.

    That may explain it, yes of course. 

    We agree on this one

    I have jackaub on ignore.

    And I wasn't going the man, just disagreeing with your assertion that most on here rate him as 'elite', which outside of his kicking is untrue.  You made your feelings clear about his suspension earlier in the week which to me has clouded your view.  Can't see how you can construe that as going the man.

    Clouded my view?? And your view is perfect of course  

    yeah right

    Salem has been on our list since 2014 and since then has been underwhelming, although you wouldn't know it reading threads on here

    Yep, because that's exactly what I said...

    You are like arguing with a brick wall sometimes.  I'd get better conversation and debate from a shrub.

    Aaron Davey's field kicking was elite. Salem is above average. 

    You're splitting hairs there. No one disputes Salem is a fantastic kick of the football. Possibly our best kick.

    Agree.

    Wasn't this a Lever thread?  Some of you panty sniffers should start a man-hate thread so you can dump on your favourites.  We drift from a trade suggestion of player X to a slanging match that has nothing to do with the topic.

    In his time at the club, Salem has played just 45 games in total and this year had been averaging a tad over 21 disposals per game, which is not so bad. He has been cruelled by injury and illness.  Yes, he might not be elite (although as someone stated, his kicking is), but he is certainly a cut above numerous others on the list, and with a good run free of injury/illness and another preseason under the belt, he will start to show the class that got him drafted by the club.

    You had him traded earlier this week based purely on what a few people had overstated regarding his being reported on Saturday - if you had actually been at the game and had seen the incident first hand (there was no available footage at the time you made your comments), then your comments may have at least had some validity... but instead, your judgement on that occasion was indeed clouded..

    I don't know if you're joking, but if we can't get Lever then we do need to replace Garland ie Injury depth. If we can't find an elite or potentially elite defender, then we'll need to look for a supporting forward to relieve pressure on Hogan, Watts, Weed & Pedo so that TMAC can go back and our defence can be elite. If injuries hit 2 defenders then we're pretty thin and it could really dent out season next year.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
