Hey guys i havnt posted in ages but i am real concerned about Yze's role as a cheap sweeper across half back where his influence will have no effect on the result.....

surely peoples memories arent that bad i think start of 05 or 06 when we were red hot Yze was snagging 4 goals a game as our permanent forward pocket.... get him back to this position immediatly full time as it might just extend his career by a year or two and he can actually win us games up there as Neitz clearly can't do it all anymore.....

it seems such a simple solution to me......

Agree wholeheartedly.

Yze's career will go down the toilet extremely quickly unless Bailey puts him forward, which I'm not sure he'll do at the start of this season.

Yze played both back and deep forward today.

His foot skills were absolutely terrible.

I lost count how many times Yze turned over the ball with poor kicks under no pressure whatsoever.

Yze is finished IMO on todays performance.

Yze in the backline = goals against and his opponent running wild.

Yze forward could mean a few goals, but defiantly = his opponent rebounding plenty of football whilst Yze stands by and usually watched Davey chase his man.

Yze isn't forward because he has a very reserved personality. He prefers to keep things to himself than be 'in your face'.

People who are forward often get themsevles in trouble, or at the very least end up offending someone.

I hope I have answered your question demon_fanatic

I hope Bailey creates a mismatch and sticks him in the foward pocket in round 1 with Cambell Brown out. Hopefully he can snag 2 or 3 thats our only hope. On todays and all the other pre season games he's finished. His disposal (his only strength) has deserted him and he can't lay a tackle to save himself.

Yeah I think the rest of his career belongs up forward. He might only get 10 touches a game but if he kicks a couple of goals and frees Davey up the ground more he can be useful. Neitz Robertson Newton get the first three defenders, Yze will get the fourth or fifth defender - he could routinely make a meal of them.

Can we afford to play 4 forwards who lack defensive intensity? Neitz and Newton are physically incapable, whilst Yze and Robertson refuse to tackle and chase. If Neitz is to play FF, then either Robertson or Newton miss out.

Rather than Yze, I'd prefer to see Sylvia played as a forward pocket, with an occasional run in the midfield.

Why isn't Yze forward?

Why isn't Yze gone is more to the point.

Enough sentimentality and 'oh wasn't he good' tripe.

It's about the team or we're treading water for another 44 years.

touche...touche touche !!! :lol:

Its all a big ploy where DB is playing people out of position for most of the game (or all of the game) so that we don't look like world beaters, but come round one look out, or maybe come round six we'll reveal our true skills or possibly round ten..............

It seems the oooozzzzz could be the new one to take over from ward and godfrey and BIG AL as the new one to be picked on here.

I suppose we have to have one or 2 or 3 etc etc.

Mate people have been picking on him for the last 2-4 YEARS and with very good reason.

Finished!

Indeed, why stop at three. Lately Holland, Miller, PJ, Yze, Green, CJ, Jamar, White, Neitz, Robbo, Bode and Warnock have all had their critics. Have I left anyone out? This group remains to be whittled down to a convenient hardcore as the respective seasonal performances unfold. Actually I see there's a natural hardcore set emerging from the Leadership Group.

Agreed why stop at 10.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
