58er

I said to myself in the first 20 mins that same comment We were not handling the sep up in class at all well. Made every mistake and fumble in the book and could have been 5goals to nil down at 20 min. Mark. But credit where credit is due we kicked 10.8 to 2.5 in the next 70 mins till 3/4 time to totally control the game. Last quarter was a holding operation done without much fuss and much attention to team ethos and structure till it broke the Tigers discipline level. Just as they may/will recall Kossie was a little cheeky ( didn't mind it at all no backward steps from this new Demon) then we can bank the Tigers lack of Team discipline for future Occasions. Round 2 whenever at MCG will be worth waiting for!

Bloody oath it will have been worth the wait. And when it happens it will be all the sweeter!!!

Leave him for the Blues or Cats!

The resulting Media contract pays fir the Thursday and weekend TV firm Ch 7 and Foxtel. it's a million rupees less than the AFL Start of Round game and plugs a gap on Thursday to at least give AFL viewers a choice rather than a Rugby experience!

No No No Tmac DOES NOT take over Melkshams role. HE continues at CHF and plays as he has done. Mediums and LJ are now in Melky role same as BBB at FF with LJ next to him running around or leading or marking with a small forward in the pocket. LJ is the X factor who can play HF FP or FF if necessary or ruck as required. It may mean Maxy limits his time up forward depending upon the game situation etc.

Jordan should not be dropped ( only managed if necessary ) for Harmes to replace him. Harmesy needs a good 2 game block at Casey to earn a recall as JJ has done as asked from about 70% game time only.

So right Tony 90,000 forget about Covid!!

Lions are more likely to win more H and A games than Eagles as they win away Have already done that with Carlton and Pies. Lions also have last 4 games at home from memory 3 of those are Pies ( in lieu of Covid Easter Eve Game switch to Marvel) Freo and Eagles last round. Eagles will need to win at least 2 away from home In H and A fixture, and need Home games in Finals really. Impossible for them to do a Doggies 2016 as likely all games away!!!

That was Jake Niall That said that !

Give = FIVE

Brown untried at this level??? Give seasons of AFL is hardly untried and played in finals!

SCOTT can see another Final after half time Being overrun due to the old brigade in Cats colours too slow and Unfit.

Just feels it sends the wrong message to young players when playing well. Melksham is the elephant still but it's hard work fir BBB and Weid as Tmac Snd LJ are performing a pivotal role as well as a team first role and no way should this be tampered with. Strange combo Tommy marks at a high Level as his long arms are straight up and Jacko has those ground skills plus improvement in marking potential now as a forward. Then where do we start with his ruck role priceless for the Gawn effect all over the ground!!!

2019 we burnt him as a result of 2018!!

Not a subscriber to the get back on the horse principal.? Thats what is better For Bayley who needs some tough love not molly coddling.

Ridiculous did U watch The game ? Or replay. Does things so Unobtrusively that you don't notice inc. handballs tackles and fits in with the mids as scpoibbof difference.

I'll be surprised if T MAC is playing in spite. That is not the only motive he is displaying ( if at all) He is just super fit and playing dangerously and can see the big picture. He may not have liked the edict but has responded superbly and is a giant reason why the forward line is a force to be reckoned with. He has always been a Club person and I believe as a Life Member is undoubtedly still!

Cwood were not in Perth ( I am certain ) during red zone period. They flew out last Friday week or arrived home on Sat.week.

Yes yes yes upgrade ASAP

The WA Govt are not involved any more! Norh have received permission to fly home and have already arrived. The Vic Govt have asked them to isolate for 2 weeks but Players can train together at appointed times. The next decision is up to The Tasmanian Govt. and AFL negotiating an outcome. The advice from Dub Dee in this forum that the game may be moved is HIS opinion only based on no firm evidence from Authorities who are trying to ensure that the game go ahead at Blundstone on Sunday. Too much money hinges on this for the State and AFL has to come up with a safe Covid plan so that the fixture will proceed. Some awaiting for advice of a change in location are no more informed and the longer silence is continued is an indication that the arrangements will remain as per the fixture,

The old adage of if it ain't broke don't fix it. So if Melkshsm is dropped and BBB or a Weid are Full forward that is fine. But don't switch Tmac Our forward structure is based around Tmac and he is delivering, as long with the others. When the whips are cracking BBB will be there and firing. Weid will also get a chance not certain about both on the same forward line though. Plenty of time for all to state their case. but NO TOMMY or TOMLINSON for the wing. Angus is doing just fine also.

At the end when Tigers fans left and we sang the Club song plus the presentation to Trac there was IMO 30,000 Demons fans minimum. The MCC members was 2/3 Demons and Really good no 's in The Southern Stand upper. All I can say is any one not gong now just can't expect to rock up and get Finals tickets Especially if we play Tigers again. Get your GF guarantee also if you are serious. Covid has placed some small hardship for fans but no more than going to coffee shops with the QRCode and it has been point by point provided by the Club on our website. Reserved seat holders and friends sitting together are being slightly disadvantaged but not prevented under the Priority 1,2 and 3 system of linking up. What some people don't think about is their own safety and others. Contact tracing is not just about you it is any one in the crowd. Simple but effective and safe.

Agree Titan

Natural form and Injury Plus hopefully not suspension generally intervene so no use forcing an issue at present. Once you are also ensconced in say the top rungs you can look at health and niggles etc. Or a player say like Chandler who I believe is really close to best 23 emerge as up to AFL standard then it's The time to reward this achievement.

The answer is you DONT TRY TO FIT IN players unless there is a good reason !!
