BOOKMARKED!! No worries, Port Adelaide have marked themselves for a loss against us. Give them hell Dees!!!

A good idea playing the enemy save Gawn for the real stuff during the QB and if Grundy plays unleash the man mountain in Preuss so he can go right through him. Play all the kids and see if any have Cahoonas at their early stage and save our midfield from injury. IMO it is a waste of time as we know what we are capable of.

Nah! 15 goals doesn't do it for me lets go for ....Let's see 30 maybe 40 goals ? Oh ! can you dream the dream E T. ?

Jack Watts seems to be showing skill more style and go than when he was playing for P A in 2018.

It might not be such a good image for the AFL but Jack is on his break and has not done anything illegal. However l cannot see what is bothering the one's that are criticising him. Go for it JW you let your hair down and enjoyed yourself and l wish l was there.

That means with the best ruckman in Max and our elite midfield consisting of Viney, Oliver, Brayshaw ,Harmes and Jones, WOW ! it looks like the stars are finally aligning.

I feel as if they are devoted to each other and the cause that makes for healthy competitiveness amongst the group. Furthermore the will to do well which in turn makes them all leaders.

The player that has become a leader on and off the field and shows it so strongly is Neville Jetta a no nonsense person that had to restart his career as a rookie and fight his way back on to the list and be in our best 22. Leads by example. A WA product that became a loyal Dee. IMO a co Vice Captain would be just reward. A true Champion person.

I love jayden's run off half back when he is breaking the lines at the blink of an eye and kicking that magic 50 metre goal on the run it really can get the team pumping. His tackles are hard and they stick and that his acceleration off 20 meters is very quick. Yes his form in 2017 warranted his place in the best 22 and l still consider him at something near his best he would make us even a much better team with him there. 2018 is a year to forget with leg injuries and loss of confidence and he is better than that. Bring on 2019.

Barring any injuries VandenBerg is a shoein and is in our best 22 IMO. The kind of player with the big body aggressive and hits hard.

I remember running out onto the" G" in a reserves match against Collingwood after the game in 1969 chasing autographs and came across no. 4 Tony Sullivan who gave me his signature and felt chuffed about it. Only to find that he signed it Fred Bear. I wasn't impressed to say the least. Loved the Reserves game.

Our back line will hold up with May and Lever eventually returning successfully which will give us a good boost up. Oscar Baker will make his debut and become a speed king sensation with plenty of tricks to boot. Harmes, Brayshaw,Viney, Clarry, Petracca and driven by Gawn and help from a brute force in Preuss alternating in the forward line will cause havoc. The Weid will have a breakout year and kick 40 plus goals and TMc to kick 50 plus which will make them a formidable combination thanks to our backline launching attacks. Petracca will finish in the top 3 in the B&F with his breakout year and a possible AA. We will finish in the top 2 as we set ourselves up for an assault at the Premiership. You have to believe.

Fremantle you have embarrassed Jesse Hogan's value if you stoop so low and you are looking for a bargain basement you might find something you like at K Mart. You mistook David Jones for K Mart. Sorry Freo you took the wrong turn! HEAVE HO AWAY WE GO WHERE WE STOP WE DO NOT KNOW. Come on Dees! convince him to extend his contract.

Freo you you have it all wrong. You want Jesse Hogan you forget that he is worth the 2 first round drafts picks. In return we will give you a packet of Dunking biscuits for your Football Department to SUCK ON! No chocolate Teddies for you lot.

If we get 5 and 11 for Hogan or maybe 5 and 23 and another pick what ever it may be. Let GC come to us with the deal we have the time as it is on our side. If it doesn't eventuate we go into the Draft and chase the best kids. We have OMac, Frosty and Lever to come back Start rating them they will do the job. May is 27 not 23 and has a history of suspensions. He is no world beater.

You hope that you keep your bet players at the club. Sometimes l wonder if Hogan wants to go however the FD are sick of it as well. Trade him for first round No 5 and Brayshaw's young brother and the deal is done. No other deal plain and simple and if the answer is no cut the losses and keep him.Somehow l don't think he wants to go. IMO.

Preuss To me with his height at 206cm and solidly built a man mountain had the distinction of leading the NM ruck division when Goldstein was struggling and to me he covered the ground well. Look for a future ruckman , my word l think we have one a B rookie in Bradtke l think that is what he is. However the Premiership window is open and he is been identified with the FD. So l am going with the flow. And that is how it is. I have followed the club just as long as alot of others and although we all have our opinions we mostly think in the same light when it comes to our club. In other words we are almost all on the same page. cynical or not l love the club and and when l think of something l like to share it and not all are going to like it. I didn't read PJ's comments. If l had of then l wouldn't have written it. All IS GOOD Nasher.

Preuss is not only a back up for Gawn . He is 23 stands at 206 cm and is around 110kgs he is huge Played predominantly forward in his junior days. At one stage he was the main ruck at North in front of Goldstein but was shuffled back when Goldstein came good again. Preuss has played 8 games and kicked 5 goals so he knows how to kick a goal. I believe that Goody is going to stretch the opposition backline with Preuss or Gawn when resting. there similar to WCE with Lycett, Vardy and co It can work and it will be interesting to see. He is worth picking up.

I remember listening to the radio with my Dad being 11 years old wearing my Melbourne jumper with the number 16 on my back. Johnny Townsend's number. I am hoping this could be the year and if not we are not that far away this time.

Hunty although dropped early in the season his input wasn't enough and struggled a bit. Injured his ankle with Casey and out for6 weeks plus. Forced himself back in the side and re injured the ankle. However a few weeks out from the finals Melbourne had a settled side. He has had an up and down season however he doesn't lack the skill and application just a bit of confidence. He is an integral part of the make up but if Melbourne keep winning in finals it will be hard for anyone to break in at this stage of the season.

91,000 + at the G Felt like 70,000 supporting the Dees, incredible atmosphere and led from start to finish. Incredible football team and now l will always believed in this side that has been built since the Roos years. Now Goody is carrying on with his fantastic work so far. Viney is something special and Weideman is going to be something , infact the football club is in a good space. Yes! we can do it.

Preuss is 23yo 206 cm and 110 kgs. Big boy that can move well and has impressive tap work. Is from QLD and played rugby. Converted to Aussie rules at 16. Positions played Ruck and full forward and a ready made back up for Gawny. Contracted at NM till 2020. Why would we persue him? Because he might be a good insurance incase Gawny goes down he can certainly take a mark. Maybe he wants to come to us because he wants to play for a top side and learn from the best in Maxy.

Well done Bernie you are a champion person . My Family and l are proud of what you have achieved in your career and blessed to have you as part of our great club.To us you are a Demon for life. Oh! and our cat Bernie say well done to.

You are in LA LA LAND You are a stirrer lol .. you don't need to cause this problem about trade. You were not at the game today obviously. You are not a true Dees faithful.

Jake has speed to burn knows where the goals are and has a thumping kick. However l believe that he will be one of many that will help us go deep into the Finals in the not to distant future. Well done Jake on your 150th Afl games. Have a great game and hope that the Bomber supporters are watching and wondering why you are a better player at the Demons. Go Dees!
