The Harry Armstrong Thread

Please stop hiding outside his house PF! -
Assuming we keep 5 & 9, who are you picking?
DistrACTION Jackson replied to Mouseymoo's topic in Melbourne Demons
5 - Jagga Smith 9 - Tobie Travaglia 83 - Floyd Burmeister or Thomas Sims -
Well yes according to Green, but apparently he negotiated to keep him on as a consultant so there's that?
-
So you don't think he was a big part of everything? Obviously he isn't doing it all on his own, but he's definitely been a driving force in getting these matters sorted.

I’d say so

The Harry Armstrong Thread

I think if either of those get offered to us we will seriously consider it. -
North took Greenwood off the Suns this way. Would be rare to happen though. Think that’s the only time

Was being conservative… but could easily kick 35-40 goals

I view him as depth for Fritsch. I don’t think you can play both of them in the one forward line, but happy to be proven wrong.

I think the bones are there to have a functioning forward line. JVR - for the love of god stop using him in the ruck… this decision has frustrated me no end. He will get 50+ goals next year if left at full forward. Turner - showed great signs, think they should persist with him at CHF. Think he could kick 20-25 goals in 2025 if fit. Fritsch - needs to get back to his very best next year and kick 40 goals Pickett - should be kicking 35-40 goals in 2025 Tholstrup - think he will run as a 60% fwd and 40% mid in 2025. Think 20 goals is not impossible for him. Chandler - hopefully keeps improving and can up his goal tally to 25-30 for 2025 Petracca - think he will play maybe 50% time up forward. Was on track for a 25 goal season before getting injured so think that’s the aim again. So tallying those up it gives us 225 goals between 7 players. Last year we kicked 259 for the whole team! So if we get additional goals from the mids we should be able to go way past that. My key concerns are: 1. Back up ruck - this just can’t be JVR anymore. He has to be our main forward target. If this means Fullarton plays then so be it, as I’d rather him rucking than Petty. 2. Additional mid/small - these players are so important in the modern game and with ANB gone we need someone to step up. Will be between Sharp, Spargo, Billings and Laurie I think. Unless we get someone in the draft who fits the bill.

We also moved up knowing there maybe be multiple options available to us. We obviously would be very happy to use that pick straight up, but also know some clubs may be desperate for a player and overpay. -
He would complement our current midfield perfectly.

Screw loose*

I think that it was allowed because they had two 2025 first round picks. Tbh I don’t know why they put those restrictions. Clubs should be allowed to do what they want with all picks and wear the consequences if they get it wrong.

Nathan Jones joins MFC as an Assistant Coach
DistrACTION Jackson replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
Agreed. Wtf are the AFL doing with this. Everything is back to normal and has been for 2.5 - 3 years -
I feel like if we really want him we might split pick 9

Have heard you are...

So that’s a no

All smart business operators, even successful CEOs and multi millianaire/billionaires have mentors. Needing a mentor does not mean you can’t do your job. Not saying Rich is the right man for the job, just saying that this isn’t the reason someone should be replaced.
