Diamond defence of topaz tokenism, good when it works. Apologies to Mr Tilbrook.

Still wish she would teach the Hulk to kick.

Moonie, I have asked in several ways and you have chosen to ignore, one last try. Why not Frost? Now don't roll out the not in form, is Garland in form? Pedersen, Dawes, OMac & Frost can all play back, do you think Garland was a better option?

How could I forget Fred, 18 goals 1 point in his last match, should have dragged him for that point, hope it wasn't his first kick.

Exactly.

Exactly BS or Exactly they won't pick Spencer?

No way I would pick Hogan in front of Neitz, Jackovich, Greg Parke, Gary Lyon and as you suggest even Mark Jackson

OK I will let that go. Why have we recruited a tall mobile athletic key defender to replace Frawley (as stated when drafted) and not played him regularly in defence? Paul Roos- “It’s hard, because we’re trying to play form players and guys that deserve to be picked,” he said. “Oscar [McDonald] hasn’t had a lot of continuity, with injury and being in and out of the team. He had concussion about three weeks ago and hasn’t had real consistency, so we’re trying to pick guys when they’re in really, really good form, rather than manufacturing a team. “In hindsight, another tall would’ve been good, but you want them coming in, in really good form.” OK so on that basis if Gawn get injured (I hope not) he won't pick Spencer! BS - Face facts they have made selection errors in each of our losses, no crystal ball required. Several posters were saying we were too short in defence here last week. Garland does not play tall, doesn't seem to play small either at the moment. Frost, OMac, Pedersen and Dawes can all play back. We also had Fitzpatrick? Sorry getting angry now. PS:- They brought Salem straight back in!

So you left out the "too soon", that makes a big difference to your earlier post. FROST! If Frost plays back, (he was drafted to replace Frawley) Pedo can still ruck. If Frost plays forward(NOT my choice) Pedo can go back. Frost needs to be given time in the backline. The premise you posted was yours, as you say Roos said "too soon".

Well not for a while granted, but we have played in plenty, won a few too.

Who would I rather have played in defence against the Doggies? Not Garland. Frost or Pedersen or OMac or Dawes, all would have been better than Judy. Picking Grland at the moment is out of desperation. Your premise that you cannot pick someone coming back from injury or poor form eliminates almost every player playing in the reserves in any side. Thus your point is irrelevant.

Who the hell is Sam Frost?

Who do we have that is tall athletic mobile and can play in defence? FROST PLAY FROST IN THE BACKLINE!! FCS Or OMac or Dawes or Cam Pedersen. No, we play Judy? Why?

What about Shane Woewodin 1999 to 2000? Kicks up by 55% handball up 80% goals up 100% tackles up over 300%, that Shane Charters knew a thing or two about supplements. Then in 2001 he was back to worse than 1999, I wonder why? No Mr Charters I presume. Edit: I though I'd better check my facts. From http://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/shane-woewodin-tries-to-clear-his-name-after-being-embroiled-in-the-afl-drugs-scandal/story-fnelctok-1226574522274 "Woewodin worked with Charter from late 1999 to early 2001 and claimed the 2000 Brownlow Medal after starring for the Melbourne Demons. Charter was later credited with being the "architect'' of Woewodin's Brownlow triumph."

Fair point, you did say, "a numbskull argument." I dislike name calling and probably it was a poor choice of word. I prefer, I disagree and a counter argument but we are all different. Thanks for the clarification.

numbskull ˈnʌmskʌl/ noun informal a stupid or foolish person.

We'd have to teach him to skip.

I thought it was Steve The Man J or Dan. PS:- Our Casey side looks good. Some handy players listed here. I reckon 15 of them would have played for us in the seniors in past years. B: Dean Terlich, Lynden Dunn, Ben Newton HB: Billy Stretch, Jack Hutchins, James Munro C: Jack Grimes, Jack Trengove, Christian Petracca HF: Sam Frost, Oscar McDonald, Christian Salem F: Angus Brayshaw, Tim Smith, Declan Keilty Foll: Jake Spencer, Alex Neal-Bullen, Viv Michie I/C (from): Liam Hulett, Joel Smith, Max King, Chris Dawes, Paul Pattison, Sam Weideman, Jordan Moncrieff, Mitch White, Angus Scott, Jake Gains, Kody Wilson, Ed Morris, Jason Briggs

Internet, wifi, modem? Sure they may have words but they are English.

That should have warning attached Cards! My skin feels creepy.

I know a Treblecock (trebilco) and a Glasscock (glasco) My all time favorite is the daughter of Mr Cos Sita (Bus company owner) her name is Pina. TRUE. School boy humour anyone?

Jacko, Demonland is a microcosm of society, there are all types here. Some suggest the ignore feature but I prefer to skim some posters. Often the worst culprits have something interesting to say. As in society we learn to deal with the idiots, the wankers and the pedants (like me). One thing is certain, we all love our team, we simply do it differently.

I added gaps to your name. StevetHemanjorDan The effects of punctuation/grammar interests me.
