Demonland

Welcome to Demonland. I’ve merged your thread with the existing Jack Martin thread.

I forgot that Tim Kelly will be playing for the Eagles.

Every goal of 2019 here:

2019 Edition

15th MELBOURNE – 8 points CURRENT A-GRADERS Clayton Oliver, Max Gawn POTENTIAL A-GRADERS Bayley Fritsch, Angus Brayshaw, Steven May, Christian Petracca DOWNGRADED Tom McDonald, Jack Viney The world seemed to be at the feet of the Demons after 2018, didn’t it? Gawn and Oliver were at the peak of their powers, but it was the next wave coming through that seemed to buoy their hopes. Angus Brayshaw finished third in the Brownlow and looked to be the next great Demon mid. How times change. Jack Viney returned to the midfield full time and seemingly accomplished two things in 2019; he got sat on his ass by Sydney Stack, and he took the spot of Brayshaw in the guts, stifling the young bloke’s development, whilst posting his own lowest statistical return for five years. We all heard about the hardness of Viney, and the way he plays the game… the commentators rammed it down our throats every time he went near the footy. The problem was that Viney went near the footy substantially less than Melbourne expected him to. It’s a slide he needs to arrest immediately in 2020. The other slide was more like an avalanche. That was the velocity of Tom McDonald’s decline in 2019. After taking on the role of number one forward, TMac’s goals per game average dipped by more than half, and had it not been for his six goal bag in his final game of the season, he would have been clocking in at under a goal per game. I’ve yet to read a valid reason for TMac’s sudden inability to hit the scoreboard, and one would hope that 2019 was the anomaly for him… not 2018.

They’ll probably give us 2 games at the other Boo Stadium west of here.

Anzac Day to be a stand-alone Saturday (twilight) game in 2020.

West Coast in Perth Round 1

I thought that was strange too.

In fairness we can't control the other parties in our dealings.

Last year, Neville Jetta was considered unlucky to miss out on All-Australian selection so one simply cannot underestimate the effect of his loss through injury to the Demon defence in 2019.

Hopefully the medical is conducted by the Richmond Doctors.
