What should our midfield set-up be next season?
what is this annoying myth Petrraca is carrying extra weight?. reports have been his skin folds etc ar excellent. his work rate and attitude are excellent. yes work on the tank but its annoying these comments are made but based on what ? if Dusty couldn't run all day then you'd be saying well its because hes fat.

Trade Jack Viney Thread
watch our finals series again. if we do make finals again he will be the first selected if fully fit.

Isaac Smith
That’s the only way Clarko would consider it. Think he was around pick 19

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
No no and no. Both coming of career best seasons I can see this blowing up in our face. Different team different structures.

Thanks Jeffy

The Stephen Coniglio Thread
feel free to post their salty tears and comments. would be a joy. Hawks supporters thought they had him in the bag. just get a star mid each year they don't have to develop and away you go.

The calumny of the AFL's priority pick policy
so basically given last year and this, Gold Coast get a complete second crack at a truck load of early picks despite their failures. but we win 2 and 4 games and get what ? this competition is a joke.

Josh Mahoney
yep. I think we have to think like true leaders here and do reviews of the review, both internal, external and nocturnal. Just leave no stoned unturned. Then appoint an eternal review officer to make sure we are doing the most reviews. every day. every week of the year. and then review every game since norm smith. except last years prelim which cannot be reviewed.
-
Jack Martin
how couldn't we be interested in him?. defies belief. he wants to move and we lack real talent like that.

The 2019 season post mortem thread
The other positive is we should have the biggest salary cap space besides Gold Coast. Anyone out of contract can take a big hair cut.

Lewis Whacks Playing Group
totally agree. When the going gets tough, we fold like a deck of cards.

Lewis Whacks Playing Group
it should absolutely be relevant. they are wearing the jumper and our history is so important. We should be the most hungry club in the AFL, and we are the least. stunning level of sh1tness.

Lewis Whacks Playing Group
yep and he said he is sick of finishing every year badly since hes been at the club. and yet it happens yet again.

Its the forward line stupid
rubbish. like the player is going to talk up his injury as an excuse. he was miles off what he could do last year. you could see it from the start playing on Rance in the preseason who rag dolled him. he just didn't have his body right. I likened him to an elephant. just could not jump, and was not making space well at all. even his 6 goals against the blues I wasn't convinced he was 100% right. remember a lot of games in 2018 he was the number one key forward.

REQUEST: A club-wide review
right on the money. I watched Weagles yesterday with Jetta, Liam Ryan, Petroocelli, Rioli all in the one side and we have none of those types since recruiting Garlett what 5 years ago ? astonishing.
-
Will Carlscum rise up the ladder?
maybe. we played them a month ago and we smashed them all over the ground in the first half but couldn't convert (for something different). 3 players down and they came back to scare us in the end. we shall see how they perform when the dust settles. Richmond did the same thing on the weekend. over by half time. they've improved but they need Cognilio to even think of hitting finals next year.

Kade Chandler Set to Debut
beginning to think our 2018 drafting was a disaster.

Drop off of midfield and time in forward half dominance
i think people just assume we are crap at everything. One main problem is when you pump the ball in soften (and often more time than the opposition) and don't score, you lose the edge. it takes away all our energy to do all the hard work and watch forwards who have no idea in front of goal.
-
Craig Jennings Gone at Seasons End
yes they were doing pretty well but I really think the 2018 draft has left us with nothing in the short term and who knows longer term. They will get a real good look at it this year though. have to strike some gold.
-
David King puts the Boot ? in
Rubbish. Teams have not worked out how to stop our forward entries in so many game we win the forward 50 entires. At times out midfield has transitioned well. We are simply our own worst enemy. We had the saints at our mercy in the first quarter but squandered a great start with atrocious delivery, unforced mistakes one after the other. Just unable to execute the basics in footy a local footballer can do. We are devoid of confidence and skill. It’s palpable and appears irreversible. I’m convinced now it’s the club. It goes beyond personnel. I’ve never really not wanted to follow the dees but I’m now at that point. We have a disease and it feels terminal.

The 2019 Draft and Trade Targets Thread
they just can't give it. Lions didn't get it and it took years but finally they are a finals team. They did dominate the super draft last year.
-
WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ED LANGDON
I bet you its more than that. when these 'done deals' happen to Melbourne we are offering up both massive coin and high picks. im tipping equivalent of a mid to late first rounder.

If we are in this position next year the blame falls with Roos and Jackson!
anyone who didn't coach us is to blame. Vince Lombardi included. how silly is this thread.
