    Please start writing fantasy novels you would be a winner with them. Oh and get Kane Cornes to do the launch and forward of your book!!!! Whole lot of rubbish Drummed is because there was no camera. 120 years of Footy goals have been judged by this way so big deal!!! Karma for Dees after that field umpire's decision in last minute of Lions loss !!!

    What rate they made of ? Solid something ? Thanks RN yes It's lucky times we msy even jag the Granny What if they Dees surprised us eh ? Anything can happen this year IMO. Rivers played in the centre in a recent practice game thAts why I reckon he could at a pinch play on the ring or centre. If absolutely needed. Stsy safe and keep smiling when we win!
  9. 58er replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Sounds pretty good RN understand your changes and no probs if they occurred. Re Rivers I didn't want him on Papley and agree 100% to let him play HBF where he excels. Locky the one yo mind Papley. Only mentioned some options for flexibility and run on the non Ed Langdon wing. Pushing Tommo Back in defence as the 3rd tall makes sense. Of course you haven't mentioned Hibbo who I would rest this week fir Freo if fit. Important Lever is able to float about and intercept And him and aMAYzing controlling the defence with Salem's excellent disposal. A committed team effort in Cairns should set up our last 2 games. Liviing in Brisbane I can't wait for us to play at tha Gabba agsin. Cheers Rusty

    Dom Hasnt played for months and is in a 2 nd bottom team that is worse than us last year.! Also was injured a lot in 2019. Is nowhere near the player he was when he left us and played 7/8 games if lucky! Id fancy Sparrow definitely Now and in a Final in October as he slotted in quite nicely. Same with Wattsy out injured fir 2 years nearly so coveted by Sparrow again!

    PS Hore is out for weeks still and hasn't played in any matches at least since the first 3 rounds or last year or pre season in late 2019 when only fitness work was bring done Consult our injury list !

    Don't need Locky and Jets in same side Basically Locky has replaced Nev in the team . Agree Bedford could be given a go if Kossie is rested. Fritsch for Hannan and Tommo back to defence and OMac out to structure with Baker or Hunt to the wing fir pace. Not a bad idea to rest Max fir either this game or Freo so he is cherry ripe for GWS.
  13. 58er replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    All defenders other than Lever and probably Wags could be flexible some on wing others up forward and Tommo in the ruck.00.
  14. 58er replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    That's what I agreed and stated AF. Think he needs a rest for one game. Also Hibbo should maybe be treated cautiously and managed with his ankle .

    Rusty What bubble are we out of ? We are in a hub in Qld snd for nearly a week at Cairns I believe then back to Qld . What bubble are you talking about? The Gold Coast one? Also your changes : Lockhart should come back If we want Speed and run and carry He is prob the best defender to give it consistently And we usually select 7 defenders ( prev counting Harmes) but Tommo can provide some flexibility along with Brown. Reckon no harm in trying Locky on the wing or even Rivers. Both run well and are quick. Think maybe Kossie for a rest Bedford ? To replace him. Or ANB Vanders needs managing and either Hannan or Melksham replaced by Harley snd Fritsch. Need a good team effort to get points possibly 5:6/7 goal win. Lets get in the 8 Dees !!
  16. While we can smile ( a little smugly) NOW there has not been such love for Trac universally over The journey. Remember these posts will be still on line somewhere in D/L from drunken fans, also frustrated supporters about his shocking set goal kicking his lack of a tank His less numbers up forward and inability to play a starring role in our wins or losses. 2019 was a breakout development year but Trac wanted midfield time and his Msnager met Mahoney and I Think Goody after season end to discuss his wishes. I read that talks were friendly enough but the ball was clearly in Tracs court to get fitter and more endurance ie a tank to enable him to perform in this role Say 60/70% of game time and not just cameos. Fast forward snd the new Trac prob with Burgess precision emerged that Marsh practice game at Casey in a flurry of 30 plus possesssions etc A new Star was Born !! Footy world sit up and take notice. I am serious and want to show off my considerable talent ! Well we have come along for the ride and it's getting better and more engrossing nearly every match. If ever Dusty is chop sticked out of footy never fear Trac is here!! He really is aClone with his powerful body surging pace and acceleration and weaves rather than fends off, as well as grabs marks beyond his size with a vice like grip! A get out clause for goals when needed indeed.Like Dusty no real left foot to speak of! Hasn't he matured at public speaking all serious and only a spark of his humour occasionally. Just let him play and win matches and let Band F and Brownlows take care of themselves I want a Norm Smith medal but it's now getting a lot harder with Clarry Maxy snd Stevan May all A grade bona fides coming along in the same ride. Well done Christian May you get your rewards now as you have earned the right to whatever comes your way.

    Trust me Deanox it's very little of the first and a whole lot of the latter!!! Somehow 2018 is a distant past fir Melky Hannan and Spargs on a consistent basis. Even Kossie has lost some of his magic. Weid is still developing and needs a breakout game ( like Yom Hawkins GF 2011 game) fir 4/5 goals. Yes our forward entries were low on Sat but maybe it's preferable to 50 and 40 going out on the opposition express to their scoring zone! But we are kidding ourselves that 12 shots will get us wins consistently.
  18. 58er replied to Bizzell Blitz's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    What improvement to our list TMF depth ? Or us he stopping development of Sparrow Jordan and even Jackson on the ball?

    RF what have GC and Norf got to doveith the decision and making them different. Storm in teacup as Ump was in best position and call was referred back as that as many decisions are even with full blown ARC technology. Saints fans are rightly upset that they dropped a game against us as they clearly don't rate us due to the 20/3 result over the last decade and since their 2006 qualifying final loss. They blew it with some errant goal kicking early persistent long bombing of the ball to forwards who were out matched on the day primarily by "the wall" Stephan May who was as good as SOS Rance and Scarlett combined. Thirdly like us their passing to their forwards when attempted was below par for a team sitting 6th. Ratten fell asleep at the wheel also and for once Goody wasn't tested with slick game changes which test his creativity to the limit. Move on folks check the result in the papers check the ladder we are in the Top8 and providing we take each match one at a time Have every chance of returning to Finals.
