The Devil Inside

If a forward's role is to kick goals, with 22 goals in 19 games, has Fitzy played his role?

Howie made no mention of this to me, but obviously you have inside info, strange they let him do the amount of work he did and then send for scan?

He got a bad virus a few weeks back, combined with his diabetes knocked his fitness around a bit, he played a good game for Casey last week

Sorry forgot to put this in training thread, spoke to Kent, his heel was feeling fine, have to see how it is after training, then maybe a run with Casey if it is ok, same as what Misson said, he was limping on Sunday at Family Day so has made a quick recovery, did nearly whole sessiion

Told posters before, when a player is on the list, they get my unconditional support, but I also understand why players leave or are delisted, as I understand footy I find posters calling players NQR, useless or a spud, puerile and offensive, they wouldn't have the kahunas to tell the players to their face Arsenal got knocked out of the Champions League this morning and I told Chris Salem that his performance today at training reflected this, he told me to do something involving sex and travel haha

That's because they have both been ordinary in the games they have played, they were delisted for a reason

The mood at training is very upbeat, still some silly errors in the drills, but most of the time it is fine, Roos still concentrating on ball movement, no stopping of drills this time, but he had 2 long chats with the group, in the middle of the session and at the end

If you are at training speak to the players, Howe is fine, but a week away still, there is no MRI, thinks he should get a half a game/game with Casey in week or so, was highly amused when I told him about the line from here about the Club deliberately holding him back to lower his market value Bernie Vince is the same, though he did the whole session, hoping this weekend with Casey but if not same as Howe Posted before White, Riley and Terlich have not done the volume of training just yet,, they may play next week as well, but at Casey Feel for Hunt, back issue doesn't seem to be going away Viney didn't do much today and Cross bits and pieces, both on a light day Vandenberg's melon still looking a bit rough, let me take a pic to put on Twitter Demonpk soon Any questions feel free

No but I watched the stream, read on here, listened on SEN and then watched the replays, I am entitled to my opinion on joeboy's listing, I did state it used to be good reading, but he seems to have slipped into the habit of bagging the 'NQR' players, no matter how well they play or otherwise, so I stopped reading it My three word analysis would be slightly different Whole Team First Half - played their role Second Half - stayed in sheds

Belligerent, you mean I didn't agree with it, gee you are a precious flower aren't you I think joeboy can answer for himself I don't bully, I stand up to the keyboard heroes on here, if I have a different opinion, at least I have the kahunas to come out from behind my keyboard, that is why I get to chat to supporters, they know who I am And then he played a full game, sigh

The Herald Sun is reporting Crowley is up for taking a banned substance. Docker Crowley tests positive to banned substance

I'll try again, it is my opinion, and I basically don't give a flying what you think..........(better ET) I can post what I like, don't read it And if you discuss with a lot of supporters, which I do, you will find I am not in the minority, it's just a lot don't post on here because of posters like you, Dazzle and the Steveman who just try and bully everybody else into thinking what they think

joeboy, my opinion is your 3 word analysis now tends to pander to the noisy minority who still think Grimes, McKenzie, Bail etc are not in the best 22, watched the replays of some of the goals, both Grimes and Bail were involved in the buildup with good decisions and disposals. McKeznie obviously had a specific role, didn't notice him either good or bad Just because you have the inability to debate, it doesn't mean everybody is cut of the same cloth, excellent input from you to the topic on this occasion, down to your usual standard

I used to think Joeboy's 3 word were good, but towards the end of last season and now this, seems a bit pessimistic to me, and samey, not sure if he watched the gameMy opinion of course

I am 63 and my partner is in her fifties, we met quite a few of our vintage there today, including some who post here, we had a great time I think you need to grow up

He was fine signing the team photos with Nev Jetta as far as I could see, perhaps a bit of fatigue from the game, JKH made a good job of hiding his soreness, not coming up the stairs in the castle though

Highlighted for Nasher

About 700 and the merch stall was still selling at 11.30am, 30 minutes after finish time

Got down to Dunn in first post and stopped reading....

Does this mean when I went to him to sign my team photo today and he motioned to throw it in the bin....he is over MFC, or just having a bit of fun Garlo is fine I had a chat to him at training a couple of weeks ago, he has had such a miserable run with injury he wants to have a good season, being out of contas ract also means we can ditch him if he doesn't, really loves the club

This is Demonland BBO not Plenty of Fish, although I must say if I ever fancy a change, you don't sound too bad

I spoke to a few of the coaches and players today (Family Day) about yesterday, I started by asking whether we stayed in the dressing rooms after half time General consensus was we took our foot of the pedal, because it is just NAB Challenge and nobody wants to get injured, but the Doggies did lift, and we lost control in the midfield. Roos seems only concerned with the last quarter, probably took foot too far off. Think the first half showed the players what they are capable of. As for some players not being AFL standard, that is posters opinions, if they are on an AFL list they are AFL standard.

Not when he was taking the [censored] out of me he wasn'tAnyway spoke to coaches and players, all not unduly concerned about yesterday, seems to be last quarter that will be reviewed, Roos said same thing in his chat to Robbo This is also a bit of supporter feedback as well, some supporters felt it was being devalued being trotted out on every occasionPJ was there in jeans, MFC rain jacket and cap, I said he was incognito, was told I was 3rd person and probably not last to say that Highlight of the player presentation was Robbo forgetting to introduce Chris Salem (it was announced quite a few times during the morning by Roobo the player presentation would be at 11), not sure what else they can do

If you mean Riley, put in another topic we not see Terlich or Riley till start of season and then at Casey, they are still catching up with fitness after late start to pre season

I asked Gus at Family Day how he thought he went, said he really enjoyed it (which is important), thought he went ok, still heaps of improvement, wants to earn a spot in the AFL side
