Is there a rule saying we have to kick it to our captain at all costs??

No just putting what I was told by interested parties, any comment on the second bit or is it fact getting in the way of hyperbole again?

He wasn’t in my top 3 for votes Saty. If you want to only look at stats that support your argument, JKH gained 128m with those 14 disposals which barely rated as average (9m per disposal). You would hope he’d be effective moving the ball 9m forward.

0 1% acts in 4 quarters of footy.

My preference would be Kent over JKH, that’s all.

He is ineffective. Has no presence, the footy is always a hot potato. Tackles weell, but doesn't like contact. Lacks composure. Shouldn't be in the side.

Do you ever have your own thoughts?  Or are they dictated by others?  You don't like group think, yet you go with the group think at the club all the time.  Interesting.

And for the record, JKH shouldn't be kicking it to the captain if he's under pressure.  He should be doing the team thing and taking the best option presented to him.  Jones wasn't the best option, captain or not.

We have to play the extra tall because WC play two rucks.

 

What extra tall? You have taken out 2 - Hogan & Pedo and put in one - Weid

The interested parties were the players involved

Your own thoughts? You just post what the players or coaches supposedly tell you. That's not your own thought, that's just regurgitating info from someone else.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
