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 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.

Do the premiership clubs each year have this many to turn over every year uuuuuummmmmmm.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
