I think we're missing a good chunk of players from the 2006-2011 era that were expected to be among the club centurions by now.

For example, the likes of Bate, Petterd and maybe even Cook are three players that come to mind that just might have featured in the 100+ goal category club if Neeld hadn't been appointed coach. 

I'm all for a good Neeld bagging, but gee it's stiff to blame him for Cook.

I understand the desire for a big KPF a la Neiter to kick a bag every week, but I'm less fussed at the monent given our average scores for the year - we're doing pretty well offensively (120, 86, 97, 75, 112, 91). Average 83 points a game, 3 of which without Hoges who is scoring ~ 3 per game. Not far off...

I'm not nessasarily saying we need another key fwd. Just more forwards/players who can kick goals! Another Garlett or Kent or Watts?

Aside from the calls for a Bruest or Gunston. What about a delisted player? Lindsay Thomas is currently drawing the ire of Kanga fans for suspension and form and might be delisted at the end of the year. If he was free, why not? He's kicked 322 goals in 200 games. He's currently 29 and maybe has another year or two.

I'm glad demonland doesn't have a downvote button after this comment although the Moderators could ban me. :)

Garlett now needs 5 goals to bring up 100 at melbourne in and from 50 Games for Melbourne.

Lets hope he does on QB.

And with rumours flying around Hogan may be back QB (and only needs 4 to kick his 100th) Let's hope both of these milestones happens and we make it 5 in a row against those flogs from Victoria Park!

The fact that 100 career goals is mythical to Demons fans shows how woeful the cub has been as far as individual accomplishments and career goal tallies.

We have been around over 100 years, yet in five or so years from now both of the new clubs, GWS and GOld Coast, will each have a player (Cameron and Lynch) that will eclipse our leading goalkicker (Neitz).

But its not just goals we are terrible at - Nathan Jones average of 28.05 disposals in 2016 was the highest season average in MFC history.  Jack Vineys 26.1 in 2016 was the 4th highest in MFC history.

These are embarasingly low numbers for club records.

Why do we suck so badly statistically?

Not sure. I bet Fred Fanning knows the reason.

With Hogan & Garlett back in the side. Wouldn't it be nice if they both bought up the 100 this week against The Blues!

Also noticed Pertracca now has more Goals than games and also has 10 more McCartin with a year less in the game!

Hogan now has 105 from 50 games. Better than 2 a game!

 

If he stays a Demon for his whole career,  Neitz's goals record will be challenged.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

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.

Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
