Good point agree
-
They have had our measure for the last 2 games in the G albeit close losses. Let’s take the $800,000 and turn it into a charter flight and package it for Dees fans also. Ay the same time get Kossie to run as Deputy Mayor of Alice.

Simple win ALL or 5 games and we make Top 4 or enough (3 or 4 )Top8.

Why not if he has a trouble free pre season? No reason at all just half glass empty supporter/s who don’t look logically why he is not as fit or quick as he’s was. It’s al about pre season that the Club has on tap!

Apologies for not checking my dodgy typing!

Drastically improving is an overload on Clarry’s form. Your negative side clearly shows while the stats are clear he is down in most categories it merely comes back to a very good honest one year winner of our B and F and not a 4 time superstar champion’s record, One thing still that highlights Clarry is that he still is one of the best last quarter players when he is needed to produce. Hats off to Goody who held him back last SaturDay night to see him through the four quarters. BTW Cranky Granky ( well self named) howcgid you expect Clarry to perform this year given his prep for 2024?? At 75 85 or 95 % of his normal output. And your assertion that we are only getting 50% worth of Clarry’s $1 mill contract is way off. He is improving each game and I’d be very scared if we make the Finals if I was another of the second to 13th teams that could come up against us. Never write off a champion and just as the Deed are hitting their best straps this season so will Vlarry be right there when the whops are cracking.

Sort of agree but got over it.
-
Well I have given up hope he would finally grab one. !!! Yes it was good but he is far better at ground level in our team.

I watched the replay after the tennis last night and did not Come down for the game from Brisvegas. (Weather and health for upcoming OS trip took precedence). I must admit after reading many scripts on the ruck display I was most surprised when I saw Harry mixing it with all the other talls at bounces throw ins and in the packs. While He wasn’t the standout he definitely contributed his body and hands to the task and was not the pathetic player many of you have intimated. Remember he has not played in the ruck before and IMO he did not shy away at all in the contest. He may not have contested all the contests but by golly it was his intention to make his presence known when the game got up close and personal. It was not a big man’s night either so he also improved much better as the game wore on. Not sure what the masses expected who regard Harry bashing each week as part of their post to D/Lers but he did quite a lot in the clinches and tried his heart out. And that’s what counted on Sat night. and what Goody expected. A much more skilful game vs Freo will be needed and we all need all the players to be positive and be aggressive. Harry may mark like he did vs Cats and you would fancy his chances far greater than Fullerton or Verrall. Put your best footballers together and a little less height may not be noticeable. If you haven’t got the ability don’t expect a player to bridge the gap. Remember the only standout side is Sydney and Freo was in the Alice. Another day on Sunday snd we are an 8/10 goal better team than then. Shout out to JVR Disco and all the youngsters who did their job and also our leaders who all showed the footy world what our culture is when we get it right. Reckon Clarry might be due for a blinder this week as he got better and better on the night. We are up to our eye balls in the top8 fight and even a Sneaky top4 option should we maintain our form over the next 6 weeks. We must be competitive on the ball and restrict their stars to average games and stand up to their team style game.

Why want Port to win? They are ahead of us and GC will only win 10/11 games at most.
-
Don’t agree as it is a history repeating itself again with different players. Their actions in leaving ( wanting to) are the result of too many ins and outs and sub appointments over 2/3 years. Look at the results on both players regular in a top side and consistently used. They also feel wanted.
-
Kynan is not too light a player like Windsor was going to be too light or Jefferson is too light. Players with skill can play in certain positions as skill will always win over strength if it is good enough. Kynan could have replaced Maxy who was injured from half til on and also vs Roos Harry was injured. Please don’t say about like for like. You switch the team around to confuse the opposition ! Also just acknowledge that Goody’s use contributed to both Jordon leaving and Toby. Both made their decisions freely to leave. I rest my case. And if he doesn’t learn both Woe and Laurie and Kynan will do the same. Shameful use of players and Subs being burnt.
-
No one could survive their performances to be fair. But the Club have not been very proactive on trading recruiting or drafting and held onto some flag heroes a bit too long I fear. Hope they still dither a couple more years they deserve to be bottom.

Advertise in Sydney be creative!!

Kynan Brown Pup says Hi only 2 weeks in a row again. Will Goody ever learn? Also the point about Bedford and Jordon is that the same selection tricks and issues are being played out with Laurie Woe and now Kynan. If I was Dog Brown I would be furious with the treatment of Kynan. BTW the record of Schache and Kynan as subs is 1 close win vs Roos 4 pts and 2 losses by 2 points vs Blues in SF and Lions by 5 pts in Round 16. Surely you deserve to lose games and players when you burn them at that rate.

Surely the defence should have tried it. “ The good bloke card”

Beautiful doco spot on in all ways with our Club showing how we can take care of some things together. The bonding of Kossie and his family plus his newborn is spine tingling and tears in the eyes stuff. Then to expose Clarry and Shane along with Goody is a masterstroke that will bond those guys even more with our newly emerging playing group. I believe we have started a rebuild on the run both on and off the field. The Demon fans that are dooming and glooming are half empty doubters and thanks to 32,000 last week that atmosphere and noise with all the kids showed how good our start from our slump has been. We can again see the future with the old and new and not to bottom out. This doco shows that Clubs are sometimes more than results on the field and I will be interested in what public credit our Club is given for this initiative of soul, spirit and humanity. 10/10 Dees congratulations.

Welcome reward for Disco as he has had some injuries setbacks in his learning years. Will come out better for his versatility but who knows when good players start to fully fulfill their ability. Congrats Disco let’s see you star on Sat night in the big game and take down the Bonbers.
-
While I respect your ability to have an opinion I think you are miles off the truth. Clarry is in his life now much much better significantly and is like the Club in for the long haul. A full pre season and fitness level in 2025 will see him back as superstars again for us. .

Simpson Should have walked away at last years end of season. WC. have not helped themselves with keeping some premiership heroes a season or 2 long.

"Very sore" Max Gawn in doubt for next Saturday vs Essendon
58er replied to Whispering_Jack's topic in Melbourne Demons
Clearly they have a plan and Grundy would not be happy here as you saw last year. Fullarton and Rooey plus maybe Tmac or Tommo will carry the load. You are bringing up the last years trading scenarios which are as I have mentioned above. The Plan is obvious. -
Does not make up for the art of crumbing especially to the front of the pack. Who takes Kossies place at ground level when he wasted his time flying from the back over other Dees players who are in the team to mark the ball. in other words ONE mark swallow in 100 games ( summers) does not make a summer!!! Imagine if all players did this an all positions team rules would be a disaster. Inlove Kossie and appreciate that he is allowed plenty of space to play expansively because of his amazing ability. Thats what we love about home but speccys can be left to our talls thank . you

Hardly decent stint about 6/8 games needs a season or two or 3 really!
-
Agree disgraceful That’s how you lose players and GAMES.!

Why can’t other Demon fans go to gather Round? You are acting as a judge and jury. Pray tell please.
