Misled by the thread, he is saying. Somehow he thinks telling him Newton being selected to playing for Sandringham Seniors is misleading... :rolleyes:

Come on, you deliberately titled this thread "Newton Selected" to mislead people. You did it on purpose for a kick and you got the desired result. Don't turn around now and say you didn't mislead anyone.

Besides, that was hardly Rumpole's point anyway.

The nasty weather makes me think more and more that Yze will replace Neita.

A little wet in Melbourne today then?

Also wouldn't surprise me if they drop Dutchy and bring in Brown.

Nasty weather??? Not sure it is that bad Jaded.

For me Yze in for Neitz and Dutchy to full forward.

It's raining on and off, so the ground will be very wet and heavy.

Sky is looking nice and dark. I'll give it till about 6pm and then it is likely to bucket down.

It's also cold... very very cold.

Expecting Brock and Godders to have a night out! :D

It's looking likely to turn nasty is what I meant. Unlike yesterday when we had blue sky throughout the day.

Dutchy to FF is about as useful as bringing back Phil Read. Unless you just want him to be a decoy.

I really hope that the days of Dutchy missing from 10m out are over!

It's cold and windy here...but it's always cold and windy here :angry:

Doesn't really matter if it rains or not, MCG on a Friday night in late June is always going to be slippery unless the dew freezes before it hits the grass. Then it will be REALLY slippery.

Give him time!

The Newton (non-)selection is definitely the biggest storm in a teacup I've ever seen in my time on Demonland or Demonology.

Likewise....

But what fun!!! I love a topic that polarises us. At least it's something to get passionate about...

Is it though?

The Newton issue is directly linked to having a successor for David Neitz when he retires, and at 32 y/o that's getting closer and closer. His injuries this year have exposed a major worry for our team and even after ten years of coaching Daniher has been unable to develop another key forward.

True.

It's not like we've got finals to get passionate and excited about! :rolleyes:

If we didn't have the kids, we'd pretty much have nothing, and since we talk about the awesomeness of Brock, Jones, Belly, Bate and Sylvia (not so much when certain posters are on holidays ;) ) all the time, we got bored and decided to jump onto the 'Michael Newton is better than sliced bread' bandwagon.

I was really certain he'd play tonight for some reason, but I'm starting to think it was just false hope.

Its not over until the team sheets are in so until then, you never know.

I definately like talking about the positives rather than the negatives.

Well... I wouldn't say I'm not advocating it... just that the Ooooze loves playing Richmond.

But don't worry, Newton goes along rather nicely and I wouldn't be disappointed if he played! Haven't really seen the 29 running around and doing justice to "Hangtime" Shaun Smith for a long time!

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
