Al`s DEMONS

which ever way it goes club wouldn`t be doing its job unless such talks were under way.

The Suns won't win a game all year. Their best chance will come in a couple of weeks against the Lions but they will fall short. They are a good 2-3 years behind all other clubs. The only people smiling are the punters.

as much as i didnt like the man, how many pack marks did lloydy take, great contested mark on the lead, not so many pack marks . watts has pace. skill and ability to take a grab. still a boy,what is he 20, playing in the hardest position on ground. needs two-three more full pre seasons . we all looked at photos pre season and thought hes put on muscle. compared to last year, yes he has, still has a lot of filling out to do. can have an influence on games this year but expectations of six-seven goal hauls are a little premature. he is a star in the making.

if we loose bailey must resign, simple as that. the ground has no bearing on the game, my mates tell they will win 5-6 games this year. they are a good three years devolopment wise behind last years wooden spooners. then someone tells me they have some good kids, yeah....well so do we, and some of ours are just starting to find their feet.

weve played at the gabba more times then they have

please excuse this post

exactly, for the last time, i know he can play most positions but green must play out of the goal square on a full time basis to give us some kind of structure. we all know where watts is at and lj is hot and cold. not sure what bailey is doing this week with the forward line, i will look on with interest from the pub.

out of those mids you named, morton is soft.

is this what`s wrong with our team, rather than worry about x amount of players need shuting down, lets aim on winning the friggin thing first and make them chase us. with all this talk about ommissions, who gets dropped when scully and jordie come back. could be a long year for jones. currently livivg in sydney for work is anoying, want to be at ground to see watt`s work rate. needs to harden up and make tackles count. probably a few guilty of that.

we were paying $3.50 against the lions round 5/6 last year.odds dont mean everyything. their backline is their weakness, we have a good spread of forwards. jones and beamer need to get on top of sewell/mitchell. quick ball movement. green to play forward all game, jurrah flashes in and out of games. petterd is a massive in for us. frawley to show buddy why he is the best going around

nothing wrong with scotch

how much upside is left with bate? he`s had a few years now. green must play full forward all year. great mark , great kick and with 2-3 good years left in him he adds the class and experience needed to a young forward and is not keeping a young player out of their spot. maric green jurrah dunn watts pettard the perfect mix

cant wait,$30 for adults and $20 for kids sizes, having said that in 09 the demon shop had shirts with the old school image which could have been better quality.

i want to buy 2 xl and 1 for a 7 year old, bring it on

we have the ability and the right mix( except bate and warnock ). IT ALL COMES DOWN TO MINDSET. everyweek this year bar the byes a team will be priming themselves to play the pies. why cant we adapt their mindset.

agree about trying to fit everyone in , hence bennel for moloney. bate has had enough chances for me. has a booming kick, but who misses out for him. the forward line i named offers a good mix. this off season is doing my head in, not long now

batram chip garland grimes rivers davey jetta mckenzie scully dunn watts pettard maric green jurrah jamar trengrove sylvia jones moloney/bennell gysberts spencer green must play ff all year, watts its still learning/growing. green has a hardened body, is a great mark , used to be the best kick in the game for goal. proven champion of the game. bate should be off to gws at years end. dunn did a great defensive job last year as well as kick some goals. as magic johnson once said about jordan ` not even he knows what he`s about to do` that goes for jurrah. a freak , and a massive headache for oppenents. if all forwards fire at once i want to be punt rd end level 2 with the redlegs. if spencer is next in line then he must get game time. simple as that. the midfield spots should be the most hotly contested this year, morton needs to start living up to the hype that surrounded his drafting.bennell bail strauss blease and co will be eyeing off moloney and jones. both who are getting a game on experience and their hardness as oppossed to their disposal. we all had our views with the recent departures of mcclean bruce and mcdonald, not looking for an argument but i think in 2012 moloney may be on the out with all the young talent knocking on the door. end of the day we need to adapt collingwoods mind set, as much as we hate them they are a mentallty strong side. every other side has a build up when they play them . every one wants to beat them. same went for the cats of recent years. time to harden up

who did the lions have out, Morton yet to influence a game after a couple of years in the system

i said best available, not best 22 on paper, fact is the main reason we lost was mindset. look at the pies, gun players are didak, pendels , swan , i like obrien. then they have some very good players in shaw, jolly , ect. their biggest strength is their mindset.nearly every week they have a mini blockbuster. they mentally get up a lot off the time. we should have beaten the bombers last week ,nab cup or not. if we are going to have this great return to power we must become mentally stronger.

NAB cup or not, we had our best available side playing. bombers came off a six day break. we need to develop a winning culture. we need a collingwood like `mindset`, with out that we might as well not even turn up. we have the potential, the players and coach , but we dont have a consistent mindset. and dont use `the kids `line as an excuse.

green should play forward all year, would kick 50 easy

besides flash who`s on the big money. we have to pay 90 odd % of the cap. i thought i read somewhere last year , players contracts are getting front loaded to avoid problems in the future.

massive chance if he plays full season, also back to back mark of the year

with our supposed up and coming gun midfield why are we long bombing the ball. look at the damage Pettard and Green did on the end of some `lace out` during the year. when the play has slowed , and the oppisition flooded back , either kick it in the direction of Jamar or Jurrah, or bring the ball to ground for Aussie. what is Darlings height compared with Neita`s?.

its a funny one, Bruce didnt walk until he had something else lined up, we have to asume. Bailey didnt tap him on the shoulder yet knew anything other than two was never going to be enough. competition for spots should bring out everyones best. have the footy dept managed to clone Brad Green yet?
