Asking for 4! c'mon mate that's ridiculous. Even if that was Maynard I would not be calling for 4

To anyone having a crack at Kozzy saying he needs to change, I have seen numerous occasions this season where he was running towards a player and pulls up at the last second, so he has definitely changed the way he goes about it. This incident was a bit different to the previous bumps, given he was going for a spoil and then made glancing, side on contact. Will either be a 1 week suspension if deemed medium contact or a fine if deemed low. Going off the Max King one the other day which was similar I would say they will grade as medium, but who knows with the MRO.

Oh yeah we definitely get screwed compared to Blues and Pies.... just depends how screwed.
-
I think we definitely do.... which is probably why we finally get a home game v Geelong at the G and no travel down to Kardinia! Think they've requested this for 20 years straight....
-
I remember listening to this on the radio as the game wasn't televised in Perth! Different time back then when you couldn't watch every game!
-
Not an emergency so I would say no
-
I love Judd McVee and I think they will work with him on improving his defensive game, which is already pretty strong for a 20 year old! Going to be a great long term player for us.

Rising Star Nomination for The Duke?
DistrACTION Jackson replied to Elwood 3184's topic in Melbourne Demons
Made the right decision and executed late with his kick to Fritsch also. Love him. Can't wait to see once he adds some muscle to his frame. -

Hopefully without the flopping like Rozee? -

DistrACTION Jackson replied to Heart Beats True's topic in Melbourne Demons
Some of the comments in that thread are embarrassing. Shock, young players developing at Casey can be inconsistent.... -
Exactly. Once he is OOC this changes, but for the end of this year we can just say no deal and he comes back for another season. These articles saying 'Crows think they can get him' are all just for clickbait, fact is we don't have to trade.
-
Well yeah but you very rarely get what a player is worth once they are out of contract and want to leave, given the players can choose where they want to go. We are very lucky Freo tanked last year and we got Windsor!
-
He wanted to leave though and was out of contract so we did the best we could. No point whinging about a player who didn't want to be here, when the majority do. Agreed about Gawn injury, but most teams are the same (dockers probably the only ones who can cover their number one ruck). If English goes down Dogs have to ruck either Darcy or Lobb full time. If Marshall goes down the Saints have Tom Campbell. If Soldo goes down the Power have Jordon Sweet and so on and so on. There aren't many good ruckman around and there are hardly any AFL standard rucks in the VFL.

Lol I would never be bidding for that.... maybe the olympics but sounds like our pollies can't work together to organise anything
-
It feels as though some people just want to be outraged no matter what is happening. It's like the Tasmanian stadium talk, they need to view this as an investment into the future of the state with potential sporting events and concerts to be held. Instead there are pollie's using the current economic issues to try stop progression, while fixing both is not necessarily unachievable.

I assume no news is good news for Clarry..... 😐

Sounds like the FD really rate Bailey and want to see him continue to grow and improve. I'm happy with this as it ensures we have decent depth on the list and it also give Bailey the opportunity to just focus on footy without the worry about coming out of contract. Lets also not forget that he would be on a relatively low wage for an AFL player so wouldn't be taking much out of our salary cap. Our recruitment team has been one of the best performed for 10 years now, so anyone trying to call out our misses is taking the p i $ $ -
PREGAME: Rd 03 vs Port Adelaide
DistrACTION Jackson replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Apparently Horne-Francis will miss again. -
Exactly. I think we will go free agency/trades to cover those guys, but I also won't write off Adams/Verrall just yet. We've seen Howes come in this year after a couple of years at Casey so sometimes it can click. Plus big guys take a bit longer. I'm more saying I don't think we should start panicking about those two finishing up just yet.
-
100% agree. Which is why I'm not as concerned about the Gawn/May retirements. The real end of the 'era' will be Trac, Viney, Salem, Oliver, Fritsch, Lever, Langdon, ANB, Billings etc.

PREGAME: Rd 03 vs Port Adelaide
DistrACTION Jackson replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I think we also need to get physical with him, not illegally but when the chance is there put a heavy tackle on. Butters is only slight, though he is super quick. -
That is a fair assessment, but let's not forget they are 22, 20, 21 & 20.......
-
@binman loved the analysis of the stats guy (think is name is Daniel Hoyne?) speaking with Gerard Healy about our new plan to score more from the back half. I think the one thing that the media are sleeping on is just how good our half backs actually are. McVee, Rivers, Howes and Bowey are all elite kicks and are going to be so dangerous. I actually believe that is the best group of half back users in the competition
-
AFL fantasy is purely based off stats. i.e 3 points for a kick, 3 for a mark, 2 for a handball etc. Supercoach is the one that adds additional scoring for effective disposal, score assists etc. Petracca has a SC score of 146 compared to Sicily 123, which shows he was more effective in the game.

TRAINING: Monday 25th March, 2024
DistrACTION Jackson replied to WalkingCivilWar's topic in Melbourne Demons
I reckon they are really setting themselves for these 2 games and will be looking at it as a positive i.e. rather than making two trips to Adelaide throughout the year we knock them both off. Both are going to be tough games, but I'll back the boys in and think they will steal themselves to try go 2-0 in Adelaide.
