Docs Demons

Has to be Neitz however as i have mentioned previously Schwarz would/may have taken it if his legs stood up.

Love Gawn however he really has only come into his own last few years whereas Todd was a consistent great payer for us over the whole journey. Going with Viney but if this was on in a couple of years and Max continues his current form then Max would get the nod.

Got to agree with you here. Schwartz in my opinion would have won a Brownlow from a forward spot he was that talented. Shame he did his knees. Was brilliant to watch when on song.

Leave Trac out as he will annoy the crap out of the rest locked in a hub!!!

Robbo for me. Was terrific to watch and never left you wondering what will happen next. No doubt Oliver will become a great player but right at this moment I have to favour Robbo.

Brett Lovett by a country mile. One of the most skillful players I have witnessed.Could use him in today's team.

Now that's the reason we lost. We played to early. Had of been the last Saturday we would have won. Then again I reckon no one was to beat the Bombers that year.

Don't think so. We were close at 2.30pm on that last day in September

You forgot 2000. 20 years still waiting

Have to agree Poita on Schwarz. I am convinced if he had stayed healthy all the footy public would be speaking of him in terms of G Ablett senior. He could have/would have been an absolute champion of the game if those knees didn't buckle on him.

The players up the ground need to lower their eyes and only 'bomb' it when under extreme pressure or no one leading. We can't have the likes of TMac leading into a good position for him to see the ball continually going over his head. Lower your eyes Backs and Mids please. I would also add that if they do lower their eyes and pass to someone leading even if the pass is crap and runs along ground at least it gives the forwards a 50/50 chance. No chance sailing over their heads

I think we all will be writing off this year. It also appears to me that you should follow another team seeing the Dees are a basket case in your eyes.

These games bring a huge smile to my face in these uncertain times both health wise and the way we are playing at moment. Geez we had some players with skills back then. Brett Lovett we could do with right now. Hardly wastes a disposal either by foot or hand

I've been banging on this for ages. We need to recruit players with excellent disposal skills or work bloody hard on existing to up skill them over whatever period we have out of the game. We get ball easily enough. We just give it back far to easily.

We all need to look at this in perspective in that it was basically another practise game with poor preparation having to fly in late and play a game that really it looked like no one wanted to play. That aside we still have issues with our mids being lazy other than Viney in not pushing hard enough back to assist when Weagles got the ball in our forward line. You would have thought that our players were taking into account the instructions from the Govt. to stay as far away as possible from others !!. No use talking about our skills as we have none.

And I think that little number 9 has turned every ball over also. Sick of our lack of skills

Gil to speak 3.30pm our (Qld) time which I assume will be 1/2 time of Lions/Hawks game. Stay tuned folks.

Yes it appeared the Doggies listened to much to the pre season hype on them and just thought turning up would be enough. Need to turn that lack of aggression around real quick.

We certainly need another tall to give Big Max a chop out.

Also any Demon tipping comps?

Can't see how the conference system has done us. Injuries and lack of finishing would be more to the point.. We still had our chances to kick goals and stay in front but lack of composure and more likely skills let us down plus a certain tallish lady in forward line is having a shocker.

Will get this back on track. Signed up as Interstate member again last Thursday and also twin Grand Sons. Trusting this Virus runs its path real quick and we get back to normal in life and with games. Hope its gone by time we play Brisbane and Gold Coast up here.

Happy with the AFL team prediction. I would assume the AFL will follow other sports and play in locked down stadiums. If that is the case we have a real chance playing in WA with no RABID WC supporters swaying the umpires and helping out the Weagles. Go Dees. PS - Hope they charter a plane. Do not want players and officials having any chance of catching this virus.

Watch this space. Could well happen.

Not convinced with Harmes in the backline. Reckon he's wasted there. Performed heaps better in 2nd half when thrown on the ball and forward. Put Salem back in his spot and throw him back into the middle even if it is off the bench.
