WEETRA - Stroke of Genius or Blunder

Give it a re-read Nasher

Believer the poster may be suggesting that by not drafting Anderson because of his footskills is somewhat hypocritical with Danny Ward and Simon Godfrey running round in the red and blue.

Just a little smartarse comment that got a giggle out of me.

I must be having a blonde day, I didn't pick that one up either.

Love your work champ :lol:

    I'm blonde every day. I was born that way. :(

    Besides, I'd have thought asking whether Weetra was a stroke of genius or a blunder is a tad premature. Come back in about two years and revisit the question.

    I should have finished with "Who would have thought?".

    It isn't just Ward and Godders either, how many Demons can consistently hit a moving target at 35m as often as a dozen of the Bulldogs can?

    Exactly right!

    Think it's perhaps just a fraction premature to start making a judgement call on a player yet to play a senior game!

    After watching last night's game, I can see what CAC meant about Anderson's diabolical kicking.

    We shouldn't be getting too carried away with Weetra or any of our young recruits at this stage because all we'd be doing would be to put added and unneeded pressure on them (as if they don't have enough already).

    You are assuming that these kids log on to Demonland, and also assuming that they actually care what us nutcases think

    Nathan Caroll was a bum pick for freo, he turned out great after his fitness and injuries improved.

    WAY TOO EARLY to write off weetra.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
