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.

    A couple of broken collar bones would suggest differently.

    I thought Nathan Jones was high up the 'Fine' list for current players...but he is getting close to 300 games

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
