I think you'd be surprised at how mobile Jamar is, it's just that his brain isn't quick enough so it makes him look slow.

And he stands at 197cm (?), compare that to the likes of Ottens (202), Cox (204) and of course Sandilands and it's a fair bit of a difference

With just two changes, our defense would imrove a lot

Out - Carroll and Miller

In - Rivers and Holland

Posted
who would Holland play on when Will Minson wasn't in the forward line?

he would go forward

That is the beauty of Dutchy

Posted
he'll go forward and have his opponent run up the other end a kick a goal because he's so slow

Holland is on our list and should be picked on merit , not just because a young guy is or is not ready to play seniors .

He was our best player for Sandy on the weekend and therefore deserves to be played , end of discussion .

Disagree. I dont accept that a BOG at Sandy guarantees a recall to higher grades. He was kept on the list for a purpose and should only play in the line with that or if there are serious injuries.

I would rather find out what we can get out of younger alternatives. I know what I get out of Benny. At best he is passable, at worst he looks inept.

BTW who is his direct match up for a short team like the Bulldogs?

Any of the resting ruckmen , who would completely obliterate any of our key defenders otherwise.

BTW , I would rely on him to kick goals well before Newton , Robertson and Neitz .

I would be ;) You may be right, but either way the outcome is the same.

PJ moves far better, and is 1 cm taller (at 199, vs Jamar's 198 - MFC Almanack 2008).

Apparently Meesen is also a good athlete and moves well, and he's 200cm.

BTW who is his direct match up for a short team like the Bulldogs?

He played up forward last season, to good effect.

No room for him with all of Newton, Robbo, Neitz, and Miller though.

1cm isn't a huge difference :P

Meeson I can see playing as a defender, looks a bit like a fish out of water in the ruck from what I've seen of him (which in all honesty isn't much at all).

Jamar just needs to get angry more - he seems to play better when he is :lol:

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.
