  1. Due to shizenhousen state of the AFL/ Big pond website, anyone overseas cannot see videos of these new young guns. This really yanks my crank. I have been writing grumpy grandpa Simpson style emails all day. Is anyone else having difficulties? If anyone can post, tell me how to get around this problem or sends me through the videos (not links to the AFL site please) I would be very grateful.
  2. I heard he was training with the pies and hence why we got him at 33 (pies had 45 and 46 before our next one) Maybe like Jurrah we stole another gem from the pies!!!
  3. Not sure if the table will come out right but 102cm is up there with Brennan and NicNat!! From AFL Website Running vertical jump Year Score (cm) Name 2002 102 Jared Brennan (Brisbane) 2008 102 Nic Naitanui (West Coast) 2007 101 David Gourdis (Richmond) 2004 96 Danyle Pearce (Port Adelaide) 2005 90 Wayde Mills (Brisbane)
  4. Damn AFL and Bigpond. Anyone overseas can not see any of these videos. The is pretty exiciting. Can someone post or PM the videos to me I would love to see the highlights
  5. Sinces Bails has come on board, one quality I think he looks for is elite kicks. I am sure it has something to do with his fast moving highly skilled game plan. Cook, Watts, Tapscott, Blease, Strauss, Morton (Some may disagree) and you could also add Trengove, Jetta, Grimes and Bennell to that list. (I am sure I have missed some) What do the 'Land think? Am I on something here or is every coach looking for great kickers? I also think he has a thing for elite runners aswell (morton, Bail, Scully, Trengove, Howe, Cook)
  6. did he say anything interesting? any new insights? Did he talk about the type of kids we are looking for in the draft?
  7. Here is last years predicitions, some good calls back then. Morton and Grimes for me but also like to see LJ and Watts do soming special
  8. Some lip service from Bails about him
  9. love to see jordie Mac smashing someone in a tackle.......
  10. Mother Mary MacKillop has nothing on the jurrah. (rumor has it she had no left foot)
  11. Thanks for the updates everyone, Very frustrating not to be able to watch/listen etc. Jurrah is a force of Nature!!!! Go demons
  12. Will this mean headbands are back at the dees? I for one, hope so
  13. YOU BLOODY RIPPER. That is great news. Always loved Todd and hated to see him at the Hawks and Crows. Will bring huge amounts of knowledge to the club. This reeks of Stynes and Cam S getting into his ear. Great work whoever was responsible Looks like I am buying my membership early this year to tell them "well done" on the coup. And the final bonus we might get some inside word on how to win in SA. Would be bloody nice to win over there next season. Go YOU BLOODY DEMONS
  14. I reckon it might be a blessing in disguise. He has been at the helm for 2-3 years now. Hopefully in that time Rivers, Frawely, Garland, Bartram, etc have gleamed as much as they can off the man. Rivers has been in the system for a while now and has had enough time on the sidelines learning the game. He is obliviously a leader on the ground. Hopefully Bailey etc can find someone who can bring something else to the table. Maybe some run like the doggies form defence, or maybe some working class swannies defence..... The thing that separates now from previous years when we have tried to recruit is that we have a pretty damn good list of young back men, top class training facilities and a team that is going somewhere. If you don’t want to get on that train you can bugger off buck to the Dongers. The question should be asking is what new dimension do we want to add to our defence.
  15. Also "The Casey Scorpions were voted as the Best Conducted Club of 2010."
  16. Pm24, your being a bit of a Keyboard hero here. Paul had some very good games that year in Sandy. Well done Shane on the award.Add your name to others like Sam Mitchell, Aaron Edwards, JPod. Hopefully another team has a look at you and you can have your shot at an AFL career.
  17. Generated by the Adelaide media.......need I say more I reckon one visit from Uncle Jim could change anyones mind. Hey I gave him a few pay packets.
  18. 1) Blease to get a game and show some dash (and a RS nomination) 2) Tapscott to drill one on the run from 55 3) Beat the pies 4) finals footy 5) Jacks Watts break out game
  19. Just some history of a decade of number 12 picks. 2000 Shane Burgoyne 2001 Brent Reily 2002 Jay Schulz 2003 Ryan Murphy 2004 Danny Meyer 2005 Nath Jones 2006 James Frawely 2007 Cyril Rioli 2008 Lewis Johnston 2009 Kane Lucus 2010................ Looks like the dees did pretty well in the past with this pick. Some good names in there. Hopefully 2010 can be a future 150+ game player for the Demons
  20. Pretty sure Core strength comes from a little rubber band you wear on your wrist. I could, however, be wrong.
  21. I really want to see how tough Jordie is going to be with 6 more months in the gym. I reackon he will be breaking people in tackles very soon.
