Like the old cricket saying "Ashes to Ashes, dust to dust, if Thomson don't get ya, Lillee must". They all play a part, even if one is quiet.

Yep, Daw & M. Brown played a combined total of 1 game. If Weid is off we may see Petty up forward and then Gunston probably next in line? Would be good insurance policy provided the deal is right and also if body is right. We're likely losing the messiah Burgo so need to be a little cautious.

Understandable, My main point was defensively I think Angus does a great team role as you can see by his intercept possessions/spoils. He does have some clangers by foot but reads the position well and plays a big role for the team. I'm just a bit cautious that if we replace with someone with superior polish there is a risk that of losing that specific cog/role that Gus is playing. I could be wrong, any replacement might be able to do both, but a risk to change a formula that has taken us to the minor premiership

Just looking at some season stats for the year; We finished 6th for Goals Scored but won the minor premiership for Points scored narrowly pipping the Bulldogs by 2 points

He's currently in the best 26 fit players based on the team for this week. Hunt being back may change that a little. Necessary back up to have (especially in a hub situation) in the event of injuries/suspensions.

Yeh valid point. They'll never do it but reckon they should have a minimum ToG % in a position to be eligible for it. Also think they need more variety on the bench instead of just pandering to the mids. Make it mean more to be selected etc

Reckon They'd put Stringer over Fritsch in a 'true position' lineup. If Salem kept up his form throughout the season (and no soreness) he'd probably have pipped Rich. Would be interesting to see which Mid would fall out if they did place Bont/Trac in Mid tho

I think people want to see an Ed Langdon running clone on the other wing. Gus plays his role and we've won the minor premiership, don't really want to tinker too much in that department

Clarry deserves it but a little concerned about some other Dees grabbing some of the votes off him. 1. Ollie 2. Bont 3. Wines Seeing Wines up and about in these lists, I Can only think about Jimmy Toumpas.

I am getting jabbed on Sunday but due to the timeframe involved won't be double jabbed before any Grand Final, not that WA would let me in. If we do make it and win, would be happy enough for my GFG to be transferred into DemonShop Credit aha.

https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1008293/trio-of-demons-named-in-aflpa-22under22 Well done LJ, Rivers and Pickett. What a draft year that has turned out to be.

'Ken Oath - Last year it felt weird waiting for the final, think my insides would explode waiting for the dees to play if they made it.

Sorry to hijack the thread for a minute but it had me thinking, will Vanders get another contract? This thread just a reminder that 3 of the players fighting for the medi-sub (Jones/Hibs/Vanders) have contracts running out at the end of the year.

Sounds like I immediately need to apply for a reverse financed internship in the match day roles at the club then aha

On Dee radar: Melbourne flags trade interest in Jack Gunston https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/teams/melbourne-demons/afl-trade-news-rumours-whispers-jack-gunston-melbourne-interest-hawthorn-hawks-contract/news-story/9b459600257f2bd6f0abbd32b24f6e6d

We haven't won a flag in 50+ years, don't think we can afford to be too romantic/sentimental Unfortunately think the only way we see Jones is if we lose a couple of mids to injury/suspension. Don't think JJ or Sparrow have done anything to warrant being out of the match squad. If it's between Jones and AVB it's a slightly different debate. Jones may be doing well in the strange intra/inter club scratch matches (or whatever they are) but can we judge form on that? But then again, we don't get the full picture of how everyone is training.

Re: Lipinski: THE WESTERN Bulldogs have tabled a three-year contract offer to Patrick Lipinski as the young midfielder weighs interest from Carlton and Collingwood. Carlton really turned into a toddler wanting everything they can see aha

already made a tattoo joke to my mum, she did not find it as funny as I did.

Happy to read a few Landers will be there on the weekend. Get them over the line!

Booted 4 against us last time.
