  1. Totally agree PtoJ practice matches are for some experimentation!!!! Find new roles etc!!
  2. Too long and like the Big Bash would kill the novelty and bore many.
  3. Good analysis DJ is off the mark !!
  4. Only some games and scratch matches as a forward please.
  5. No Tommy is getting better each week. Last Sat vs Pies was two clunksaway from a 3 goal gsme as well as handy ruck back up with some physicality and round the ground assistance. Pruessy has to be No 1 if he plays and that's fine fir tomorrow. Tommy needs the run fitness and is handy in key positions and on the ball.
  6. No we should only trade players not needed this year and be very selective. The Petty's Gus and like are NOT FOR TRADE as we complete the jigsaw towards a list that will challenge for the next 5 years. No mids at this stage are tradable and KP players forward or back should be on OUR radar to assist strengthen our line up. An elite Runner like Stephenson makes sense and Polec on the cheap might be possible but I feel he has lost traction at Notth because if his lack of physicality. Goody wouldn't tolerate that I suspect. Interesting stage of 2020 as we build and who knows what the real situation Re recruits may be at the end of October!!
  7. Sorry BW but overrrating him and his tenure. Gus Fritta Kossie Rivers Hibbo Melky Spargo and Jones all are entitled to be on our list now and mostly except Jonesy and maybe Hibbo for 2021. Zac Williams better option and our run and carry as a team is improving by the game.
  8. See my comment TRY him as a forward as I don't think he will be if use as a defender snd firward play is a chance.
  9. Bit harsh on the smalls Lockhart and Kossie plus Spargo and Bedford are work in progress but very promising and near enough to role playing and performing. Also Jacko will fill in as ruck mid or forward And be of value. This time next year all should be in our best 30 if not now! Rivers is only half a season away from getting HB fir the next decade also and sadly Jets has no pace now. Aldo Preuess also showed his value last week and is AFL standard. We red another KPF Petty might be that or CHB/FB and a Dane Rampe/ Zac Williams type snd snorber outsider it Tom Papley. Even so all teams have gaps and it's the team Play in the end that will flourish and succeed under pressure.
  10. Really The sample was so few with Kenty he was injury prone And a good decision fir him to move on and is going well at Saints.99
  11. How dare you miss Flash Davey one of our very best indigenous stars !
  12. Agree that Robbie is elite but have no doubt if Trac Clarry or Gawny andone or two others play in our next flag they will go to another level of favouritism. All 3 are starting to put together a cv which if mirrored over the next 5/6 years and a flag or two will trump IMO any player of the last 50 years in history and achievement.
  13. Smith YES but not Josh isn't a Lockhart replacement not fast or skilful enough fir minding smalls. Jets possibly Harmes Salem Jordan or even Sparrow would be my choice. These scratch matches fir the Leftovers should be used fir experimenting nes spots similar to Tigers discovering Shai Bolton as an onballer. Experiments I would like to see are: Smith to forward line Hunt as an on baller as his kicking is long snd direct and even Bton just explodes for distance not linking a player! Corey Wagner as small defender Chandler has been given run in backline maybe Bedford also. Its a waste of time if you are going to delist without trying a player in a different position!
  14. While Dan should shoulder ( and I believe will when the enquiry is finished) due to the quarantine outbreak ( guilty of not checking the success etc after a few days ) not of the choice. So is Gladys B ( as is Brad Hazzard) responsible for the Ruby Princess debacle. She has apologised without testing real blame I feel snd could have sacked ( or asked Brad to resign) Brad. AND SCOMO ie responsible fir the Aged Care tragedy. Where is the plan? Says there is one! If There is one lets see it? Oh and if it does exist IT HAS FAILED under any situation in NSW and VIC.He did a general apology but didn't take responsibility really.
  15. The next Melb premiership team will be the best Demons for 50 plus years Yes we should laud and remember our champions but that next flag 22 will all be immortals along with the Coach.
  16. If Melky was going to be dropped it would have been earlier in year Now that he hit his top form last week why would it even be considered. Besides he is one of Goody's faves!!!
  17. Melksham ?? He is in front of Hannan esp in selectors and Goody's eyes snd mine!!!
  18. Sorry wasn't Hannan omitted then got ill any way?
  19. Sorry Lockhart first Chandler got depth 2nd!
  20. Absulutely snd the smaller Bullfog defence might just be his opportunity yo get on the board in a big way.
  21. Good point Rod that was a great piece of play by both players. Maybe it's just his perfectly relaxed and smooth motion but sometimes I think the ball seems to be in slow motion When passed. Wonder if he will ever play in the middle or up forward again. Sometimes I hope he gets switched if we need a boost in either position. Love the family Northpoint Cafe at Brighton Beach North Rd location.
  22. When have I suggested Deserve means gifted???? Jonesy deserves an equal opportunity to Make the milestone bit not favouritism. He did well enough on Sat especially in the wet conditions and his strong body helped in the clinches a number of times plus his tackling was ferocious. All is going well and maybe he can hit the scoreboard a bit this week.
  23. We are officially The Travelling Demonberries !!!!!!
