Cody Weightman (Drafted by Western Bulldogs)
picket fence replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
If I can answer that, Spargo is an overated player by many on this site. He is that far from Caleb Daniels it isnt funny. Should be probable delist for 2021 . Just has not got the tricks, no pace, cannot kick over a jam, tin, tackles dont stick but yes an occasionally reasonable ball user. However if you look at his first game this year Vs Eagles his 2- 3 turnovers resulted in costly goals. -
I really think we finally have a squad with the range of players we need to win the flag Do you really believe that?? If you do good luck but the reality is we still need a goalkicking KPF and better ball users with more than a touch of Brilliance. Every team has one at least , some have 4 or 5. Harley B is probably the purest in class but he has had so long out you cant rely on him. Max yes but Im talking Superstar quality like Dangerfield, Martin and that Ilk. We haven't had a genuine superstar for a heck of a long time. One other thing, I dont rate the coach all that much either. I firmly believe Goody is a nice bloke but is out of his league in coaching Nous. We should be looking Now for 2021 IMV Nup a Long way from a premiership I think!

The WTF did we pick him?? Brown or Smith much better options!
-
Of course,, it aint Rocket Science!!
-
Ok my concerns are twofold. 1 I would not have gone with a vastly inexperienced Jackson against the Hawks backline, and in so saying would much have prefered Smith Or Brown. 2 Given our tendency to bomb long then this will play right into Hawthorns hands rebounding out of defence. So you have an inexperienced Tall and then the probability that we will again go for a medium forward line, which has been shown to be a failure. Does that make it clearer? IMV
-
Garbage selection again Simon, why go with undersized Forwards and an inexperienced Tall against a Tall Hawks backline Goodwin has again, played right into Clarksons Hands .. No Smith no Brown.. Watch this explode like a thripenny bunger in your hand> Goody and selections never seem to amaze. Jones also should have played Hawks on rebound .. lets see this unfold!
-
Im with others on this piont, why recruit him, can kick a goal and is in reasonable form and then not pick him when this perfect opportunity presents?? I would be happy with a bench of Smith ( rather than Jackson who at this stage is easily pushed of the ball), Fritta, Jones and either Tomlinson or Jetta depending on matchups

The Oscar McDonald Appreciation Thread
picket fence replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Dear Oscar, Lyrics changed accordingly Everybody needs a little time away I heard him say From each other Even players need a holiday Far away from each other I owe you now It's hard for me to say I'm sorry I just want you to stay After all that we've been through I will make it up to you I promise to And after all that's been said and done You're just a part of the team I can see it through Couldn't stand to be kept away Just for the day From your great play Wouldn't want to be swept away Far away from the defender that we love I owe you now It's hard for me to say I'm sorry I just want you to know I owe you now I really want to tell you I'm sorry I can see it clearly now After all that we've been through I will make it up to you I promise to And after all that's been said and done You're just a part of the team so just play on After all that we've been through I will make it up to you I promise to -
Of course Uncle and you know with two great minds like ours its a wonder scientists the world over are scrambling to the rights of our DNA to create a "Super Race" Genetically superior to anything else. A bit like the 6 Million Dollar man, meets James Bond, with a healthy dose of Indiana Jones thrown in for good measure Eh???
-
Steven Clark played a few good ones! Heres another "Blast from the past" Ken Roberts and Ray Smith both played some serviceable games after crossing from Essendope!
-
NO NO NO AND UNEQUIVOCALLY NO and that is my Final Offer!! Where do you want me to start? Absolutely Injury plagued!! Plus cannot kick straight
-
Yep you can just see it cant you? A fired up Clarkson and Hawks hell bent on redemption. Just watch us revert back to old habits when put under pressure! I hope not!
-
Ahem..... There is not ONE person that posts on this forum THAT IS NOT AN EXPERT !!! U and I BOTH know that!!???? However.... Some are a Tad More expert than others!
-
Im sorry lost in translation Ok If it not Rocket Science and experts on this forum get it , Why doesnt Goody??
-
Gawwwd it must be obvious to a lot of LANDERS but I'll say it again aqnd Simon I DO hope u are paying attention... Before SMITH was crucified by keeping him on in a practice match at Casey in 2019 he was playing up forward and kicked about 4 goals with a bustedd Groin, Ok I'll say this he is a pure fly for it mark like his ol man, He does things on instinct, HE IS A FORWARD play him there with Weeds AND T Mac, drop Milkshake for a while and see what a Forward 6 of Harley, Smith, Fritschkrieg, The picket Fence MRK 2 T MAC and one other!! Go on Goody U know it just might work!!
-
You must be joking ?? Weeds OUT?? What game were you watching ? he competed, did what was asked, crunched a few packs, presenting crumbing opportunities and when Tommy was out was our only tall, kicked 2 vital goals, and will get better with confidence AND GAMES. He stays in for the rest of the year in my book unless his form drops right of!
-
If its not "Rocket Science" and many experts on this forum could see it why couldn't Simon?? Therin lies a bigger problem!

Racial Vilification of Harley Bennell
picket fence replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
And, also given his adversity in trying to get back and the Dees offering him a lifeline, It is fitting that we stand as one in support! That should be ALL AFL Not just Deees Well done young man and Club in maintaining this obvious stance!? -
Ok I stand corrected Il,l review game and as as I have said Nev is a favourite!

McCartin - should we consider recruiting him ??
picket fence replied to Ohio USA - David's topic in Melbourne Demons
NO WAY Who knows what one more head knock may do !! DEFINATELY NOT!
