    How about we set JVR up to succeed and pair him with a proven fwd, yeah? Brown started the season well and allows JVR to have the second or third defender. And can you show some respect to some great Demons because you’re losing yours.
  2. Give out $1 memberships That should do it

    Welcome to fandom. The proof of the ‘players injured players’ pudding is in the eating and it was a bad mouth feel watching us unable to compete in last thirds of games from early on in the season and then unable to compete for the finals third of the season itself. All the while our untried VFL team nearly went unbeaten the whole year. They screwed it up, I and a few others saw it happen, and we get to point it out where and when we want. It’s the law.

    Oh is it now? Thanks for defining the discussion we are having - you’d be fun at parties. We played half the team last year at various stages through injury that I mused at the time and has since been confirmed through the drip-drip of interviews and players saying they were struggling. We didn’t need to play them all, sore as they were, and we don’t need to risk Gawn now. We can defer to the experts that we employ but even they have pulled the pin on Lever and May this year for things, I would argue, they would have played through last year.
  5. Locomotive Delicious kicks straight they win that game…

    Cueing my Demonland as a pub narrative: There is nothing more calming than standing up and yelling sarcastically about about how the sky is falling in front of a group of people…

    Someone on the internet speculating about sports ball?! Thats it! Close the site. We have jumped the shark

    5 day break. Surely he plays either, not both.

    He’s watched too much ESPN… PTI and First Take ruined sports commentary shows over there for different reasons - but the generated friction is the most nauseous movement in the way the media covers sports. Jabba the Hut-chison is the OG but you can ignore him. Kane is everywhere and occasionally has a cogent thought so it’s harder to avoid.

    He was close to BOG against Syd and WCE and then a Dees ‘fan’ comes out of the woodwork with his ‘worries’… I would say he was a troll if it wasn’t the personification of the hand wringing Melbourne supporter to fall apart like this.

    Spend 10 mins explaining what being ‘5%’ off in the contest means. Not first to the contest, lose territory. Make it harder on the backs, mids chasing tail. Not competitive in clearances, forward handballs at stoppages. Clean kicks into backline, May becomes less relevant as ball is cleaner and to advantage. There are plenty of other examples of how, in the world of 6-6-6, you can get punished if you don’t show up mentally prepared and connected against any team.
  12. Planning issues and traffic are not what the moaners are going on about tho are they?

    Really?

    It’s not the size that counts
  15. What a pack of whingers we are

    Might be time for a break from the phone

    Hard to argue. We should be up for this; we seem to be for the big games. It’s the ‘run of the mill’ that does us in.
  18. Being a bit harsh on those three with the whole team playing so poorly. Personally, I wouldn’t have started Melksham and when Brown comes back I think he provides more than McDonald to compliment JVR and be dangerous deep when Gawn comes back. Tomlinson is depth for Lever so no problem there. We just can’t compete when we are so lacking in spark and dare.
  19. Stagnant and no spark and joy and The Engine (Spargo, ANB, Chandler) was impotent and hampered of course with injury. Even before the 50+ mins without a goal, we piled on in two flourishes and were trash around that. Look arrogant tbh. And waiting for someone else to do something. This is what happens when you are off, you get punished in this league.
  20. Nasher with the Demonland servers

    I can’t even follow what you’re ‘truth’ is. I’m just asking you to show some respect before you lose whatever respect you have earned.
  22. rpfc replied to Romey's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Deeluded - calm down. Everything is so personal to you on here. Take a break before one is given to you.
  23. Here we go. Who is getting dropped? Same for the Jordon lovers now; who is getting dropped? Some of you just don’t know how to follow a good team.
  24. I think the Hawks fan needs to be fired
