Remove Neitz and go Newton, have Neita as 2nd forward, get Maric in and Robbo out, keep Davey up forward!!! Sylvia doesn't belong in the forward line, no matter what his fans think.

Someone speaking some sense... dont get me wrong im a massive neitz fan but if he was anyone else he would be dropped, not sure if newton is the answer but maybe try him one out no point leaving neitz down there if you are going to play newton. Davey must stay in the forward line id rather see him with 10 possions as a fwd then 25 as an onballer. Robbo sadly has to go, to slow.

Can anyone name a fwd line in the league that could be slower then ours?

Robbo was the worst Melbourne plyer on the ground yesterday by a mile! Terrible.

It was interesting to hear Bailey's post-match comments on Robbo's game.

He pointed out that Robbo has really excellent aerobic capacity and that he did, on a few occassions, run down to the backline to help out. Then he mentioned that we need more output from him and that it was disappointing that he didn't kick any goals (a rarity).

While he was better this week in the midfield I still wouldn't mind seeing Green playing up forward alot more. He can take a mark and is still a reliable and accurate kick for goal... I personally think he has more value as a forward than a midfielder.

Could he be an option? obviously not a KPP but another option none the less..

If need new breath I reckon we also need someone down back like a Stef Martin who might be able to at least compete with some of the monster sized opposition forwards like Buddy and Tomahawk. A tall down there with the capacity to punch the ball away or at least through goals might have helped us make up more than half of last week's deficit.

Neitz should retire on his own terms.

I still believe that Newton is better suited to FF. Quick on a lead, and clever (at times). But without an engine to shine at CHF.

Newton or Bate at FF. Some say Bate is useful in the middle. I say we should spread our talent and Bate is 193cm. He really should be looking to be a KPP.

Strangely...the same number of goals as Robbo !! :lol::rolleyes::unsure:

Without knowing much about him what have we got to lose? Our forwardline is Neitz conscious, our delivery to Neitz was terrible today too. Robbo was just about worst on ground today, he provided nothing

Maric to me isn't working hard enough yet & so hasn't earnt the respect to be considered for promotion.

As well he's a talent in a small boys skin, Josh Hunt took Morton for a helicopter the other day, well we can't play Maric if it's windy or we may just loose him. :lol:

Where did Wonaemirri play on Sunday [sorry, was playing cricket so couldn't watch]

Asking because its hard to imagine a forward line containing all three of Wonaemirri, Davey and Maric

I think he was on a wing going forward. How do you know ,these days?

Who were you playing cricket for? Obviously a GF. How'd you go, Dee-reaming?

Thanks for asking JJC...played for the the Hume & Hovell Explorers V the Crusaders...and we won in a boilover.

DeeReaming bowled like a drain...managed to bowl a very unfortunate gent who was in two minds 4 or 6. My batting talents were not required.

Back to the Footy, Wonaemirri, how did you rate his performance?

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
