Godfrey vs West Coast

Featured Replies

I would have thought that no supporter gives up caring, no matter what......

I will always be a melb supporter i just done see the point in making a run for the finals when we always stuff up unless in top 4 and we need draft picks

 

ur not a melbourne supporter! u have no faith in the dees whats so ever.. yes we are not gonna make make finals but one thing u could try is be a bit positive and get behind the boys.. we are a young side with a positive future ahead of us once fit and firing. i dont think u have watched many melbourne games? we have played just about every kid on our list besides the rookie list players. what more can u want?

 
as Doggo24 suggested, go with Bell. He's been a great improver this year and doing this will not only give him great experience but show some real faith in him (much the same way as we did for Bartram last year).

The more i think about Bell on Judd, the more i like the idea of it.

What is the worst thing that could possibly come from it? (Other than Judd being B.O.G, which in all likeliness, will probably happen regardless of match up)

yeah, and bell will learn so much from it as well.

geez he's impressed me this year. i had my, quiet, concerns, but this year he has really shown such maturity. playing on judd would really show him the next level of his game which i'm sure he can get to

U dont call me a melb supporter haha. Who the hell can tell me if i am or aint a supporter. At least im not one of thoes around bagging the likes of Bate and Godfrey only to have it thrown back in their face. I love the dees but i dont like how they are managing the list. To say anymore would be going round in circles. But jesus u have read posts about Bate being trade bait and Godders getting the sack even last year and yet u crusify someone who has never doubted them. Hang ur head in shame!

Interesting article about the treatment Godfrey has been receiving.

He gets a good rap fro his stopping jobs and I love the description of him as a "Serial Pest"

So many on here are eating their own words.

 

does that mean that a lot of computers are being munched?

Godfrey to Kerr. Kerr is a firecracker and wont deal well with the constant pressure. He will get frustrated and lose his concentration, maybe even take a shot at Godders nuts :P Not sure who goes to Judd, probably Junior. We need Travis free to hurt the opposition, Bruce mopping up around halfback and pushing into the midfield, and Jones getting the hard ball for us.

im not id still dump him the moment bartram is playing again, id rather players who can use the ball and who can tackle and run with too, ie junior and bartram

....

Can i assume that because you won't respond to me that you've conceeded your "youth policy" remark.

How 'bout this....

No one tags anyone and we have a good old fashion shoot-out at Subi.....

We may lose by 10 goals but at least it will be a fast, high scoring match....

Let ND tag Woosher and that is all....

:D

We ARE playing the kids, and many of them are showing the way. You can't just pack a team full of young players and hope they'll learn their lessons, your reasoning makes no sense.

Interesting article on Realfooty: Tigers' young hopes sacrificed in push for consistency.

Quote:

Richmond football operations manager Paul Armstrong said the changes reflected the fact that young players sometimes struggled for consistency. "Young boys, when they're not winning, their form fluctuates a bit," he said from Adelaide last night.

So you're right Pates ... packing a team full of youngsters is suicide, as Richmond has learnt.

unfortunately that would leave only one team high scoring, i reckon we play our best, and most free-flowing footy, when we go man on man around the ground, and run from there. tagging people won't make it a low scoring match, as last week showed


sorry i posted in the wrong thread lol

but i think godfrey will get kerr, tagging judd is futile...and he could easily get under kerrs skin i think...

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
