  1. As the old saying goes, you wait ages for a bus and then two come along at once

    wears a longsleeve - tick
  3. Agreed. Think Hunt should be retained due to versatility and that he can offer something going forward.
  4. Several clubs need a big man, surely we can do better than that.
  5. Must hold some of our early 2010s team in high regard.
  6. Very impressed with Langdon, his kicking a little iffy but they knew that when the traded for him. His running and involvement has been fantastic recently. Early signs but looks like Footy Department had a good year bringing in the Trades/Draftees

    Preuss trade not the worst move IMO. With no Hogan/Pedersen they probably didn't want play Tmac/Weid in the ruck in event that Maxy went down. Either way, now we have some decent trade bait as several teams could do with him. Tyson no big loss given similar players.

    Round 5 Headline: Round 5 Injury Update | Preuss ready to return Get up to date with Melbourne’s injury news ahead of Round 5 By Ben Gibson on Jun 30, 2020, 1:18pm Braydon Preuss, who has been sidelined with an Achilles injury, will look to get some minutes under his belt in the club’s practice match, as he takes to the field for the first time since returning from isolation. LJ, Tmac, Weid, Preuss - even Tomlinson - have the options to replace. Good thing we're playing the bottom 2 sides. As mentioned above, may offer some good unpredictability
  9. Ok, so Tomlinson was signed to run up and down the MCG on the wing. I think the selection committee has taken this too literal, as we are now no longer playing at the G and he isn't being selected.
  10. I wonder what will happen at GC if lists are cut given their assistance package allowed for additional rookies etc.
  11. Let's just enjoy these Jaguar Fierce moments of the week as I don't envisage them returning next year

    I did enjoy watching Bedford and Pickett in Round 1 (despite the scoreline), wouldn't mind seeing that again.

    I think Brayshaw will be traded simply because he is in my favourite player list. I've already had to remove Frosty. Question marks remain over Hunt and Helmet. Soon the only one left will be Fritzl
  14. Agreed Oscar is far from the Problem, But for the most everyone was poor last night, which has lead to the bumping of the usual threads/arguments. at the end of the day, people want to blame/point fingers after losses but with the performance last night you'll need more hands/fingers to point blame at the players/coaching staff who were below par.
  15. At least with a Thursday game the Dees wont ruin our Saturday or Sunday. If we have another fundraiser like that we'll need another fundraiser. Simultaneously have PROUD TO BELONG and PAY TO BE GONE.
  16. maybe doing some light work such as swimming, If i recall correctly that's one of the things he likes.

    1. Daniel Rich
  18. Yeh, perhaps he should have been rested against Brisbane as suggested above. Either way I trust Burgo and Co on this. It's nice having some faith in the medical team
  19. Dees Fixtures 30/7 vs Port (1st) 5/8 vs Adelaide (18th) 9/8 vs North Melbourne (17th) 15/8 vs Collingwood (8th) Think Bennell needs to be managed during this period. But a bit curious he is rested against 1st place when we have 2 "easier" fixtures following.
  20. the "dangerous tackle"/"spear tackle" was more of a hit/bump anyway Love the aggression from Kozzie, even if he's given away a few free kicks (inc some downfield ones)
  21. roy11 replied to Elegt's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yet 2/3 of them resulted in free kicks!
  22. roy11 replied to Elegt's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    This is the first "dangerous tackle" if that's the one you're referring to. Didn't help we didn't get a replay of it. Grabbed from twitter, someone with better skills can note the time and put a better quality version in here aha
  23. Second one I can sort of understand but the first left me baffled.
  24. good call this, will buy something shortly. would have liked the jumper more if it didnt have the names on it (which defeats the point i know aha)
  25. Curious to see how Gold Coast go. They've got the academy/rookie aspect which will help but the priority picks were to be reviewed annually.
