You said "Service Station workers and other industries where young Indians dominate a profession. All found to be being employed illegally" That is a blatant lie. All young Indian workers(where they dominate a profession) found to be being employed illegally! That is absolute rubbish.

SK you make sweeping statements with little or no real knowledge and then respond poorly when found out. I put it to you that someone is pressuring them to get better.

Really?

This one?

Hogan is scoring half as many goals this year per game compared to last year. Sam Weideman is the same as last year. (Goals per game) Tommy Mac is having a mare, however he is up on turnovers and clangers. Edit: Please attempt to see humour, I understand that we are putrid this year.

I didn't mean we were better off, I was pointing out the folly in arguments based solely on stats. We are much worse than last season but it is not because Hogan left.

I know but I was making a point about the dodgy use of stats, if I could be bothered I think I could find some stats showing an improvement on last year. I am not going to look as it could lead to severe depression! Edit: So I did look at big Max. 50% more kicks, 20% more disposals, 50% more inside 50's, and double the clearances this year. ☹️

Because we are playing like 5hit!

You can prove almost anything with dodgy stats deeH. For example Hogan has been replaced in the forward line this year by Jayden Hunt who has kicked more goals than Hogan this year, Hunt has more tackles, more inside 50's, more goal assists, better disposal efficiency, more clearances, more rebound 50's, more metres gained, more intercepts etc,etc, so we are better off. Plus we have May KK and Swallow for free! Edit :- Italics indicate jest and ridiculous use of stats.

Fairy nuff!

Hogan played V's Freo, that would be special!

It's the vibe.

We continue to play Tom mcDonald who averages less goals, less disposals, less hit outs per game than Preuss. I don't care how unfit Preuss is he is a better option than TMac at the moment! TMac needs a break. If we could draft a 2 goal per game forward that can pinch hit in the ruck we would jump at it. That is Preuss! Preuss averages more goals per game this season than Hogan. So what if he plays 77% game time. Hogan 90% TMac 88% Out: Tmac - JWagner - Garlett In- Preuss - Dunkley - Lockhart

If we insist on bombing it in we need a man mountain. Rest Tommy Mac FFS give Preuss a few games in a row. This years average stats.

Demonland is an interesting cross section of the community. Many here would never communicate with each other in the real world. It is not surprising that from time to time we fail to communicate satisfactorily and more particularly fail to understand another's point of view. I personally am annoyed by things that normally I would walk away from. One of the great things about Demonland is communicating with others with a different point of view. I am sure we have geniuses, idiots, savants, druggies, drunkards and deviates (hello uncle) but we are all Demons. Perhaps before we throw a grenade (can I say that?) we take a kinder tack and cut some slack.

? and then it dawned on me, Not much of a ruck duo though.

Tom it might be time for a name change, Praydon Bruess perhaps?

How many times? Hogan has NEVER KICKED OVER 50 GOALS IN A SEASON! 2018 Hogan kicked 47 This year Hogan is averaging .9 goals per game Edit:- Beat me to it Moonie. I am sick to death of Hogan the superstar! Jayden Hunt averages more goals this year and has kicked more goals this year than Hogan and he is no superstar.

Bingers that's how he gets picked. Someone said we'd be better playing one short so someone else thought ahhh code for Spargo.

Suggestion for training. When kicking shout out who you are kicking it to. Perhaps it will make the players look to see if we have a player in the vicinity before bombing it forward to no one or to Jeffy when he is in the middle of 3 defenders. THINK BEFORE YOU KICK!

Why all the brackets (praha)?

I took tube fed as a comment, almost witty.

Luke even made Jack look small.
