Agree - get back to basics. Although I am preparing for at some point this season a starting forward 50 of Gawn and Oliver - it will happen

6- May 5 - Lever 4 - Fritsch 3- ANB 2- Langdon 1- Gawn

Agree with this, its is pre-season although no question in my mind Dogs should be aiming for the flag. I also hope Dees players didntt fall into the trap of falling back on we will be ok when Oliver, Weid, Viney etc are back.

100% correct

the slowness of ball movement and the play of Jordan and Sparrow were let downs for me yesterday, that said to say they wont make it is a little bold. They played against a premiership midfield yesterday and im not sure there is a better midfield. Yesterday was a lesson for those boys so hopefully they took notes and come back better for it

Not completely sold on Saints either. However, i also have a feeling Carlton will be a real contendor next year

Demonland melt downs - what else

Seriously reading this thread is hilarious - posts going all over the place. There would be a lot more noise if this was true however if im Clarry im putting the club on notice that i expect the club to be ruthless in acquiring more talent to keep me at the MFC

an interesting point raised early in the thread of a chaotic style. Coaches always talk about i just want players to play their role - e.g. consistent and play within set parameters. Chaotic styles wouldnt seem to mesh with this. Still i did miss the chaos Frosty attack on the footy, although are we any worse off for not having it.

Agree Patches - lets target our needs

i rate fitness coaches as critical to success and this guy is one of the best. I too thought he was only one contract for one year and thought it must be a lifestyle choice as much as anything (no shortage of takers). A must retain for me

Concur - their fans are furious right now so next week the Dons will deliver the best they can

its not another rebuilt - the top 6 players are fine - we need to supplement the list. Its players 7-38 that don't do enough. Savvy drafting and recruiting is what we need.

he did leave 24 years ago. If he has the fire to still do it - it would be great to have him back

Best thing ive read on Demonland for a long time - thank you

My view - we have a very good top 6, after that, it drops off considerably, hence our inconsistency, multiple changes each week. Finalists bat way deeper than us

Why i started following the MFC - this man alone

couldnt care less where the GF is. We will win it whether it is in Melb, WA, Qld, Barbados, Alaska.

looks to have the goods in a key role in modern football - enjoying watching him

Totally agree. Unfortunately I think he played for the opposition on Saturday - Brad Hill

Bigger name teams doing well= more $$$. AFL current financial situation means $$$ is more necessary than ever. However, it will make our triumph more gratifying

Next I want the Jack Watts V Nik Nat debate re-opened

Clarko factor

3 games in 9-10 days. We have depth, lets use it wherever its required. Want fresh players playing manic football. Maybe its time for Hunt
