  1. Viney - obviously not ready Jones - embarrassing and costly Salem - our ONLY winner Jetta - loose and slow Hibberd - disposal was abysmal O. McDonald - no redeeming component Frost - a total liability Petracca - still looks overweight T. McDonald - no second efforts Weidemann - overrated and underwhelming Spargo - has a brain Oliver - rarely advantaged us Brayshaw - possessions without purpose Harmes - tried but limited Gawn - was easily overcome Hunt - far from convincing Neal-Bullen - laughably our fittest Sparrow - not the worst Fritsch - just some cameos Melksham - not as fluent Hoare - lacked game awareness Wagner - not the answer
  2. Ridiculous act by May.. one week penalty is appropriate
  3. Hunt’s performance so far looks very encouraging.. the Hunt of old perhaps.
  4. JKH is one of our best IMO
  5. Preuss looks impressive
  6. This is not necessarily a spruik for business, but I happen to have a picture framing business in Fountain Gate shopping centre ( t/a Hang Up) which is next to Bunjil Place, so if anyone wants to drop off framing before attending the pre season launch, I’d be pleased to offer a 25% discount to anyone who mentions ‘Demonland’. ( mods feel free to remove this offer if you deem it inappropriate)

    I’m not clever enough to be able to bring up the photos but David Neitz and former Victorian and Australian cricketer John Hastings ( pre hair removal )have an uncanny resemblance
  8. Brayshaw - break out season Bugg - papers signed early Fritsch - rose from obscurity Frost - became a lynchpin Garlett - went nowhere quickly Gawn - heart and soul Hannan - some impressive cameos Harmes - our most improved Hibberd - injuries curtailed performance Hogan - was outstanding early Hunt - never got going Jetta - tough and committed Jones - slowing but vital Kennedy Harris - not enough tricks Kent - injuries cruelled season Lever - sadly rarely seen Lewis - love hate relationship O.McDonald - showed impressive development T.McDonald - versatility proved vital Melksham - important forward ingredient Neal-Bullen - a quiet achiever Oliver - dynamic and important Pedersen - thanks for coming Petracca - exciting yet disappointing Petty - only limited opportunity Salem - skills were sublime J.Smith - showed some signs T.Smith - failed to impose Spargo - clever but limited Stretch - injury ruined year Tyson - was rarely valuable vandenBerg - tough but limited Vince - limited by age Viney - the bull returned Wagner - displayed limited skills Weideman - far from convincing
  9. And whom would you praise in 3 words for today’s performance?
  10. Jones - career worst game Viney - couldn’t impose himself Melksham - the Essendon player Smith - showed some glimpses Hannan - played little part Oliver - always under pressure Weideman - looked a schoolboy Harmes - tried without effect Petracca - a major disappointment Brayshaw -fumbled and stumbled Gawn - had no impact Spargo - little to enthuse Frost - kept at task Hibberd - obviously played injured Jetta - loose and overwhelmed Lewis - nothing to commend O. McDonald - amateur 3 quarters T.McDoald - had no influence Neal- Bullen - was he playing? Salem - succumbed to pressure Tyson - last Demon game vandenBerg - tried but careless
  11. Lewis showing all his finals experience ?‍♂️
  12. In those days there was a massive banner affixed to the exterior edge of the ‘outer’ stand , now called the Southern Stand , and in the vivid colours of red and navy blue it read: FOREVER FORWARD DASHING DEMONS , THE GREATEST EVER EXPONENTS OF PERFECTION FOOTBALL. Then, from recollection ,there were some words about how the MCG was ours❤️ It was a huge and imposing banner that adorned OUR ground and we were proud and unforgiving landlords?
  13. Yes he often IS prolific and racks up significant possession numbers, but the next part of the process leaves a lot to be desired
  14. Tyson - prolific but wasteful

    Sorry to disappoint you.. that’s what a lifetime of AFL suffering does to you, but the photo that appeared in the paper was a little more complimentary , and I AM 65

    Just about my lifelong struggle following actively since 1965 and how my kids have named various pets after former players

    and just to help you work out who I am, I’m sitting next to some guy who I’ve been told played a few games for the club.. Brassi or something

    yours truly and some members of my family appear in a double page spread in the HeraldSun this morning...prolific but wasteful ?
  23. Viney - was just supreme Jones - great second half T.McDonald - a commanding target Melksham - quiet until last Brayshaw - rarely evaded tagger Spargo - quiet but clever Weideman - regularly provided contests Petracca - genius and villain Neal-Bullen - had limited influence Gawn - powerful second half Hannan - was well held vandenBerg - was quieter tonight Harmes - great three quarters Salem - reliable and safe Fritsch - versatility was vital Frost - an important ingredient Hibberd - dashing and inspirational Jetta - grunt and tough Lewis - creative and safe O.McDonald - imbues great confidence Oliver - great despite tag Tyson - excellent last quarter
  24. Just reported on SEN thatHibberd is doubtful for Friday’s game with a knee injury?‍♂️
  25. Jones - led by example Viney - made them cry Weideman - may have arrived Neal- Bullen - tough and uncompromising T.McDonald - great first half Harmes - loved his application Gawn - imposed when necessary Hannan - one important goal Melksham - great forward pressure Salem - was all class Petracca - had limited involvement Tyson - tried and failed Brayshaw - courageous and dynamic Fritsch - was rarely sighted Frost - made a difference Hibberd - dynamic when needed Jetta - limited by injury Lewis - experience was significant O.McDonald - reliable and safe Oliver - a dynamic presence Spargo - tired and overawed vandenBerg - keep it simple
