  1. With that mo, Lever will not be the General, but the Senior Constable of our back 6 ?‍♂️
  2. I too would like to see to it that Troy Chaplin be given the power of performing miracles in 2020.

    A hole lot of glory.
  4. I've got a new avatar for ya
  5. On the contrary, Jonesy should grow it out and sport the horse shoe hair like Bruce Doull. It will strike fear into the small defenders!
  6. He's a smokey to win a rising star nomination, let alone miraculously win the rising star ? (I'm guessing you did not mean that, given Rowell will put up Sam Walsh numbers all year)
  7. We need to dish up kale and spinach for him instead of roasts, if we want him to become a lean endurance athlete. ?
  8. Took me way too long to rack my brain and realize who Brown is. I think we're not ready to forego the M. just yet. Give it a few rounds!
  9. More than a km
  10. It's all about HOW we play this year. If we play well, but have a bit of bad luck or a few key injuries and just miss the 8, then I will look back on the year as somewhat of a success by comparison with last year. I think there will be a logjam of teams and you could make the top 4 or finish 12th in the space of round 22 and 23, depending on if you win or lose the fixtures. So it will be hard to begrudge the club if we so happen to be on the end of a bit of bad luck and narrowly miss the 8, given how thin the margins between everyone to be. Yeah Yeah, success means premierships, or top 4 and this is accepting mediocity. But after last year, mediocrity is success. Small steps.

    The only question raised (and answered back in September) was probably: Frost or Tomlinson on the wing/dropping back into defense? I reckon the FD would have Tomlinson penciled in for 25/26 games this year.
  12. I don't know about new game plan, but fixing some issues with our current one? Theyve added Ratten & Brad Hill, so we first and foremost have to dominate at the centre bounce and deliver it to our forwards with precision! I think St Kilda and a few other clubs are probably going to still beat us at that two way running game, if we're messy and ineffective with our inside 50's.

    I remember being at the G as a kid when Darren Bennett kicked a set shot goal from inside the centre square.
  14. So we've got Richardson saying this and Nathan Jones saying mid year that Craig Jennings is (was) one of the best footy minds he's ever seen plus a compliment for his work with AFL X - I'm beginning to think we might need to appoint Jason Dunstall to give us an actual non-mfc appraisal of our coaches abilities. ? If we're down the bottom mid year, i hope he has a clear schedule.
  15. Baker will knead more development that Neita will kneed (sorryx2)

    A better question might be Tomlinson or Baker.. Tomlinson obviously for now, but we should be blooding some experience into Baker this year too. Does he have to add more forward and defensive strings to his bow to get an op on the wing?
  17. He's a strange bird that one
  18. John Demonic replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Familiar story perhaps...
  19. Well we can definitely compile a Top 100 losses of the decade list then
  20. 2019 in picture
  21. Here's his gym from last years intermittent fasting fluff piece:
  22. The prospect of having to hear for the rest of his life that he finished 3rd in the Brownlow one year, should be a sufficient motivating force to get back to his best and surpass that crowning achievement. ?

    I wonder who offered the 2020 1st round picks to Richmond? One can only speculate. Amazing that after all that, they took Thomson Dow. Highly rated for them I guess.
  24. I've had a religious epiphany, the solution to all bickering on demonland is to divert all disagreement towards discussing our collective hatred for Alex Rance. ?
