58er

Clubs can pay $1mill average over 5 years by back ending a contract.

Mental Demons is well named. Dont pay any attention To him he hates Jacko And wants him out if the side snd traded at the end of the year. Total rubbish his posts.

While much of your post is common sense let's not complicate the game too much. Goals are scored in many ways and Teams have to be aware of all opportunities to create scores and not to me too one dimensional. We are starting to get some forward grunt through talls and smalls and reaping the rewards on the scoreboard is still to be fully claimed. Dees are a work in progress as we are hell bent on 2018 again with a more mature list. Only time will tell how far we progress but the signs are good so far. Go Dees we are all behind you.

Melk has got to Get the ball first then deliver it. Last year didn't try at all so no change

No mention of Bowey Laurie or Deakyn Smith but Majak kicked a couple I believe, There is a post in this D/L forum of Casey vs North Melbourne.

Very arguable improvement maybe Hibbo but no one deserves to be dropped especially for Melky.

Melky did not help last year Hibbo was good but injury and form and new faces are all facts of footy life. We must pick on form and new game plans plus new players ie Jordan, Sparrow FullY deserve their spots and have added different choices in style in our midfield. Now ANB and Pickett are also doing cameos to add to our depth. Spargo Hunt Jetta Jones Rivers and even Brayshaw all contributed well enough to hold their spots. Let's not regard stats like this as the Sole controller of selection if there are reasons for variations which will improve the team and Keep evolving in an attempt to win the Holy Grail. ( Hi Doggies 2016). I do recognise the value of maturity that say Trac Salem and Lever bring now and others do there is a natural progression in creating a list For success. We are potentially closer now than 2018 but I firmly believe that some heroes of 2018 are not shoe ins for the next Finals tilt or Substantial era of success For our next flag. For example Bowey or Jetta ? Hibbo or Rivers ? Rosman or Jonesy On a wing ? Melksham or Chandler or Laurie. LJ or Daw? A mix of each group as indicated is fine and our 22-27 group are our greatest strength who should lead the charge with others from each group more subject to form and development and experience as a qualification for a spot.

"next week" so after 2 good games Hibbo and Melk are just placed into the team to give us a premiership formula??? I understand the figures but it's about the story behind them and the unique ability to play as a team. Right now We are teaming together and a very even contribution from all was the result and rewarded us with a Score that flattered the result, it will come. No Change except the med sub. Maybe Petty this round.

Logan MAC is not to my knowledge a ruckman. You are comparing an Orange with a cumquat !!! What matters is that LJ contributes to the team rucking, up forward in team play, and around the ground as he did on Sat with 4 marks. He is learning on the job and had his season shortened by half last year so needs more games in an important ruck role. He will pay us off in spades in due course up forward as well but he must improve his kicking also.

Your post is confusing pairing them off against each other Some of which I don't agree with. But you only came up with 2 positions for talls not 3 !! Name the 6 or 7 forwards in the 22 please. BBB and T Mac can play in same side plus Jacko running around 2nd rucking and Bailey the fourth person plus smalls. Weid is in the mix but Tmac brings a much more rounded game and competitiveness To our side plus he can play at CHB !

LJ is getting judged harshly He was very competitive in the ruck and that coincided with our run of goals ( coincidence or both Maxy and LN around the ground) LJ took 3/4 marks around the ground and is not a ruck Pushover by any means. Fits in dies team things but yes does need to work on his kicking which no doubt he is by Choco.

Riv played his best game on Sat night and won't be dropped Hibbos kicking is no better than Riv was. Still like Hibbo but not at Rivs expense and I thought Hunr played well enough to stay in the team Hibbo could be the med sub!

And some demented fans say we wouldn't miss him, OR he doesn't impact ( enough) AND/OR he doesn't win us games!!!' Really he does all three and yes he can still improve his quality but boy last night was a big big statement On a big stage. He and Trac showed That they are A graders ( Steele matched them sort of ) and are well ahead of the Saints genuine mids not small forwards and are getting great support from our lesser lights eg Viney Jordan Sparrow ANB and Kossie.

So who is the middle tall in your team ?? BBB will play Ymac is still a different player and can get his win ball plus Jacko is versatile and can play anywhere on the forward line. Bailey is the fourth Player then the variety of smalls. Weid will have to show he us a better option than Tmac IMO. I still wouldn't rule out Petty if injuries petsist.

Best team performance since 2018 come on we have such short memories.

Weid will not Beat Jacko As one is more versatile so BBB Tmacand Jacko with Fritta Kossie Spargs and Prob ABN as forwards best mix.

Agree Tmac is very valuable in his form and is so accurate! BBB would get in Weid May struggle depending on form. Plenty of upside with team over a whole season. Langers is a gem and a great recruit to boot My Hope is Rosman can develop enough to be our other winger ( played his best in VFL practice yesterday with 3 goals).

You have to get a ticket to the theatre for a play or cinema for film also so why the kickback fir a safety procedure that is the same at a lot of other entry points. It gets down to do you really want to go ? If so get up off your proverbial and stop winging.

Unfortunately Lily has not been in great form for about 3 games Zge seems to get caught trying to dispose and falls over or is unceremoniously dumped! Dintvtjink it's confidence with her but lard hope she is back on her game in the Finals. Good luck Lily

Where Langdon haven't seen ONE post like that! And Rivers was back to best today. Hibbo may come in later when injury and form vary,

No no no no form for 2 years and needs to tackle chase and contest properly.

Really move on make it a donation you couldn't use it any way!!!

Get nothing for nothing !!!!! Hope you get it validated etc for your grand child's sake. PS Probably won't ever win the Largest Spending Granny Award for this year but maybe Kindest Granny.!!

Talk about a contradiction One minute you can't take your son along because of the ticketing Is there no Junior Members tickets available separately to join Senior Members? Then at the end you blame kids for losing interest this year because of last year's non attendance availability. Is it both or one or the other reasons??? For away games a GA ticket would cover your child anyway even at an Adult price which is not too dear!!

Great article and saw many Tassie games 1959-1969. Still think our backline can get better With Riv improving and if Petty is st CHB snd we don't need him on the forward line. Tommy MAC would also be a standout if moved back at any stage.
