I disagree.

As do I.

Y_M your constant barraging of Cameron Bruce is getting old... as is your undying love for Colin Sylvia.

While I love Sylvia, one of my absolute favourites.

And while I would love to say, yeah Sylvia is wiked and everytime he gets it im happy.

You are ruining plenty of fairly strong arguments of how Sylvia is a good player and making it a total bias Bruce bashing saga. Who like it or not has been our best player this year, and is only now getting into full fitness.

It MIGHT be true, except for the fact that over the last 5 years, it has taken Colin 3 consecutive games to acrue 15 posessions.

Therefore; WRONG.

Heh, good point.

It may very well be , BUT he's probably right when we talk about QUALITY of possessions .

Joeboy, you of all people should understand that demonland.com is no place for facts and reality...

(Psst, I actually agree with him but don't tell anyone ;) )

I don't agree with him at all. I reckon we only notice the bad Cam Bruce posessions because the ones that are bad are REALLY bad, and it taints our view of how he plays. If Cam Bruce got 40 possessions I'd wager that at least 30 of them were to the team's benefit. If Sylvia only got 15 on the same day, it wouldn't be too hard to see who was of more benefit to the team then.

I have to wonder if anyone on this boasrd actually pays attention when they watch Melbourne play.

Sylvia never wastes the ball, and is a beautiful kick on both sides of his body.

Bruce runs around doing useless little handballs to nobody in particular, or towards the boundary line to dispose quickly and avoid contact.

And if you dont believe me, watch the 2nd half of the Demons-Lions game to see just how superior Sylvia is to Bruce in every respect.

Except that Bruce averages 5.5 errors a match, and Sylvia's average is 5.8.

They both average less than 2 contested possessions a game too.

Give it a rest Yze_Magic, or it might fall off.

    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

    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

    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
