Demons 32

Do you want Sheedy? Because if your one of the people on here who do. Get over it with Byron. Sheedy will DEF DEF DEF DEF DEF DEF DEF DEF keep Byron. FOR SURE.

Go Byron

Yeah drop Miller for Dunn. Or if Bate doesn't pull up, Dunn. Def need Dunn.

Yes this is true and I am for dropping Warnock and CJ over Bode. I really am. What im saying is that just because they are old does not mean they should be dropped. The big GET OUT for me is Godfrey. Im sick of watching him turn it over every week for years. Ward I am fine to part with also. However we still have a year or two of finals play from this unit. Don't cull them all. No matter how much everyone carries on. Pickett will be there next year, as will Yze (contracted). Bizzel is less likely but is a chance.

Wow. Didn't think one 18 year old kid picked in the second round was going to be the sole reaso we win a premiership. Im so sorry that I forgot that every 2nd round player is the catlyst of a great footballer. I am so so sorry. In future I will try to keep my outlandish comments of wanting to win to myself. Once again im sorry and thank you for inlightening me of the power of the 2nd round pick.

May I add that earlier this year a AFL player survey was done by the Herald sun. Pickett was in the top 5 most intimidating players in the AFL by his peers. Along with the likes of Archer, Brown, Hall. You need enforcers who make the oppostion run scared.

He ran out the game against the dogs fine. I admit he dodges pre-season training and he has paid his dues for the incident. He wasted away in sandy. He wasn't in the line up to play that game anyway. He knows it was wrong, got given the choice, play on or leave, thought about it, and has been head down ever since. He was in our best on sat night. He ruthlessy attacked the ball. Tackled hard and was an imposing force in every on field scuffle. The opposite of the downhill skying. He is tough and we need someone other teams are worried about.... "footsteps put teams off".

Tell you who id de-list if we had to get rid of 8. Godfrey Brown Ward Neville Ferguson Hughes Warnock Trade Miller plus a draft pick for quality. I would rather any of them before Pickett, Bizzel or Yze. For god sake why settle for development. I don't want to loose. Do not get rid of good players just because they went from 29 to 30 or 30 to 31. Its a years difference and all 3 of these players are better than the above. We can be like the Hawks, re-build. But it took them YEARS. I do not want to be a low bottom side for years. The aim of the game is to win. Now. You constantly here players say, im not worried about next week. Gotta win this week. Do you think they all care about development. PLayers want to win. Coaches want to win. We are the Melbourne Demons. Not Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon, Hawthorn. If we re-build and loose games. We will loose fans which means in a few years we will be the team everyone is saying is going under. Send the dees to the Gold Coast. The Kangas didn't rebuild. They are just like us, without injuries. Get over the fact that people are 30 for god sake im sick of it. Every year teams get rid of young players like your Neville and Hughes because if they didn't really really prove it, why keep them when you need room for a top pick. Buckley was a low choice. But he proved it, he keeps it. As will Bode. There is no need to kick everyone who is 30+ out if we want to win. Pickett was good against the dogs. Holland has kicked 8 goals in 3 games. Brown was one of the best best against dogs. Bizzel is a terrific player who for some unbelievable reason gets bagged on here. The Bizz is Rivers but older. Is better than Fergie. Rivers is the number 1 guy. Fergie will never be. To hear people say Yze is past it is crazy. He struggled at the beginning of year yes. He did. But what about when he came back. He got 38 possies in one game this year. He can still play outstanding football. He is better than a Garland. Will Garland ever be better than Yze? Will he get anywhere near the respect of an Adem Yze? Clint Bizzel? Byron Pickett? If you want a side that can afford to re-build then don't live for the Demons. We are a struggling Club. Not team, club. We have no money, no members. Oh yes, lets re-build..... lets loose for a few years because we will be good one day. Lets be good now. Kangas are good now. This is not about emotion, loyalty, brainstorming, planning..... They play to win! We go to win! Lets WIN. Win Now. So stop with the 30+ bashing. There are some fors when it comes to playing kids yes. But there will be big big losses for 1 to many Lost seasons. WE CANNOT AFFORD TO BE A LOSING SIDE!! Thanks for reading everyone.

Big deal. We will have pick 22 instead of 18. Not a big deal. I want the dees to get some respect

In: Mclean, Buckley, Bizzel Out: Frawley (inj), Bode, Ferguson. Its not about playing youngsters when its big Neita's 300th.

Nathan Brown was given 5 votes for his game by the herald sun (I don't think he was best but still). He will retire or be given a lil push to retire. Pickett was one of our best and proved that he will do the 1 percenters and wants to be there. He will survive, just. Yze will finish his career when he wants to. Holland is fighting for his career. 8 goals in 3 games says he's fighting well. Ward got ommitted. Troubling for him. Ferguson will get delisted ahead of Bizzel. We still have Rivers to come back so they will use Bizzel for depth.

Next time he wins a game off a magical goal from his own boot you better not cheer.

Correct

Im embarrassed to here such things being spoken about a Melbourne great.

Yze will be back, fit, firing, better than ever!! OOOOZZZZZEEEEEE!

Melbourne still wants to win next year. Rave about the kids, most are playing, not winning. They can't delist everyone. PLayers like Neville, Brown, Ward will go, maybe Holland, although he is trying to save career right now. Bizzel will be talked about, could go but probably wont. Pickett will NOT go. Yze well the fact you think he should go makes me laugh. Who is the better young version, he isn't being fazed out they sent him for surgery so he could play next year. Talk sense. Give a damn if they are old, I wanna win next year and if it takes players like Bizzel, PIckett and Yze to do it. Then I'll accept it. Stop bagging. What when they go from 29 to 30 they automatically become bad players. Yze would run rings around alot of our kids. Melbourne believe they can win, they will not re-build. A new coach will want to win, not re-build. If we get Sheedy he will definately keep Pickett and Bizzel. So wise up and think about it. WE ARE NOT HAWTHORN, WE ARE NOT TAKING A FEW YEARS TO RE-BUILD. We are Melbourne, we need to win, we need fans. We cannot afford to re-build. So get off the old guys backs just because they are getting older. Been loyal servants to you, the fan, for years. Thanks for reading.

Does this mean Neitz is def playing on. HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Win Lose doesn;t even matter. Get to see the great man for another year.

God alot of people dislike me boy the Warden. Buckley should be in, Dunn should be in, couldn't care less about back up ruckman, the big russian or hightower, love them both. Bodanator should be exciting. Get Brown out and PLAY BIZZEL, let him prove his worth. Should at least get a game over Brown. Thankgod Godders got hurt. Wish we had Bate, Yze and The Doctor Rivers but hey injuries what u gonna do?

Yes 30,000 Dees by 187 Jones Neitz - 3

Demonland footy team?

McKenna put pen to paper with colling wood to. He has an extension. They let them go when oppo arrives. Plus Viney interviewed a week ago so it could.

Im hoping Sheedy with Viney as understudy.

DEFINATELY RIGHT. Said it for years.

Nice background check. I think Bond would still be a very good coach. I don;t particulary want him though. I Believe Ratten is the sort of bloke who can lift a team with his attitude and a few rousing words. I am a bit turned off buy McKenna, his attitude to missing out on Saints job and lacklustre attitude to our particular job. He would take anything. Makes me think twice. Then again. Malthouse is a terrific teacher. And McKenna was a terrific footy brain. Sheedy is the choice. May not be the best choice, but is the choice. He is the choice because the selection comitee will be in total shock right now that he could coach us. There is very little chance he will not be offered the job. My personal choice to coach us was Todd Viney. I think it's apparent he will not coach us next season unfortunately. I do not believe McKenna or Ratten will get the job. It's a 3 way race right now. Bond, Sheedy, or Sumich.

Nothing confirmed. All he said was he is meeting Essendon today, which was yesterday, and he may be speaking to some other clubs while he is here.
