Sorry I know there are other threads about this but I just went to the Demons website and the stats thing said Maloney made the most tackles of any Melbourne player last week. He is a bloody champion I cannot BELIEVE we are dropping him.. All day I've been reading and listening to media outlets crapping on about our football club's lack of spirit, lack of supporters how bad we are, how we are going to be relocated or merged etc etc etc... The last thing our club needs is one of our best, hardest at the pill, gutsiest players uninjured, playing for the seconds.. It's STUPID by the coach/ selection panel, why doesn't anyone stop this foolishness!! It almost looks like we've given up at round 2. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Needs to learn how to kick the ball outside of the 45-40 metre mark.

I'm a fan but as an opposition defender I'd love to see him with the ball in his hands cos you know exactly where the pill's gonna land

There must be a good reason Beamer was dropped we don't know about. I would reckon DB wants a win this week so i doubt it was done lightly.

would walk into my 22, but DB knows a lot more than me, and i trust there is a good reason, either injury related or tactically.

They better be right!!

Moloney is good, not great. But he is HARD!!!. Better hard and average than not-hard and good.

Check the ins and outs thread for my 2 cents on this...

Sorry I know there are other threads about this

That's the time one of the mods should lock* the thread

Fair enough you want to get your POV out there, but use one of the other threads instead of creating a new topic.

*or merge it into one of the existing threads

Merging threads is too much effort, and since you avoided using the other ones on purpose I'm just going to lock this.
