Just thinking, how many of our lads have had suspensions-fines during the last season ? 

I honestly can't remember any.  Are we under the average ?

ARE WE NOT HARD ENOUGH ??????????????

We were ‘Bad Arzzez’ in 2017 remember. Humble is the word that springs to mind now.

I think we were harder last year !

I would love to know the average fine/suspension in the last few years that the Dee's have had ?

You can be hard at the contest without copping suspensions or fines.  

Apart from a few players, I think we have a list that is more than happy to go hard at it when it's their turn.  I don't think it's a point of concern for us at all.

I think you mean “reckless”.  Punching someone in the face or gouging their eyes doesn’t make a player tough. Sniping behind the play isn’t tough. Getting reported isn’t tough, it’s reckless stupidity.

As for being hard, Jack V, May, Melksham and Oliver are “hard” players. Nate Jones,  Jetta and Gus are not afraid of putting their bodies on the line. That’s toughness.

Not sure about harder last year I-D. I think we were smarter and more controlled  when showing aggression. The ‘Unsociable Dees’ of 2017 cost us the 4 points a few times, Lewis, Jesse, Salem and Bernie all copping weeks which didn’t help our cause at all.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
