Trade JvR !! Couldn't muster one goal yesterday and he's our big hope up forward? Nope!! Needs to return home to Perth Maybe as part of Jackson deal Wishing and Hoping just doesn't do it. Enough chances. Time to cut the losses!!!

But how many of the dinky Pies kicks less than 15 mt were called????? NONE!!!!! UMPIRES.......F$%$##@ing BS!!!

Neale Daniher medal.... UMPIRES!!!!!!!!

PERCENTAGE BOOSTER!!! GO DEES!

Maynard is out....He'll keep... Save that for the finals...Greater justice then anyway!!

Spelling has always been a problem for me. For example Picket Fence.....? Shouldn't that be Pick it "Knows"? Yeah, that spelling thing!! I just don't get it!!! Go Hard!! Go Often!! Go Demons!!!

Damned Lies and Statistics......!!

Yep, it was always a feature top right hand corner of the front page of the Saturday Evening Pink Paper Sporting Globe Final Edition, along with the lowest score of the day, providing just that little bit of extra glory to "kick the sweep" when all games were played on Saturday arvo and the die-hards at the MCG stayed back to see the scores from the other games get posted up on the scoreboard so we could work out the team percentage before going home to watch the replay and buy the "Globe", read the match report, and then suck it all up again on Sunday Morning with World of Sport!! That's when journos really earnt their money!!! Anyone remember that ???

I'm calling him the "Wrecking Bald"!!

I said previously just last week that they were persevering with Sharp because if he could get over the yips his pace would really be an asset to add to Kozzie and Windsor as our three jets, and that he needed to show some flashes of brilliance to gain more confidence to feel at home in the team. I think I was pretty much on song with the coaches and match committee with that in comparison to those who had him marked out as a DUD, even if I do say so myself!!! I have found that there is a lot of negativity here. So many had the Demons experimenting and getting games into inexperienced players because the season was cooked. Defeatism is not acceptable. Please support the team with positivity. Negativity is a cancer and even though they say they are not concerned with outside noise, it has a way of getting into the air and spreading I also commented previously that we had a very good list, that the season was long and by no means over, and that Fritta was dealing with a newborn and needed time , football not being everything, and even that JVR was not working and was against bringing him back for fear of clogging up the forward line. I think I was right with most of those observations. One thing not widely appreciated about Fritta is his aerial balance and thus his marking as third man up. He seems to have got that back and is running playing the team game. I thought he was great today!! I also said Turner should play forward. I am now revising that. I think he is really going to be be the centrepiece in the backline as the May Lever unit gets passed it...not yet of course, but later. Backline with McVee coming good, Turner, May, Lever, Bowey, Salem Windsor and Rivers...depth TMac is a (censored) cracker! May has a year or two, Lever a bit more, but by then Turner will be well -blooded. He reads the game well, is mobile and is a really solid mark. One other thing I reckon is worth mentioning is that Sparrow is a really accurate set shot for goal...He's shown that over a few seasons already. I had supreme confidence he'd slot that set shot, and bingo, he did, and he's a great kick for goal on the run from around 50 mts. Some here have wrongly and prematurely dropped him. He's having a pretty good year...I think he will get even better over the back half of the year. I thought his comment at half time about "the lost opportunities in the second quarter not really being a problem because their focus on defence around the contest inevitably, would naturally result in opportunities forward" was interesting. Great mindset I reckon. Go Hard and Go Often!! Go Demons!!!!!

I think they may be persevering with Sharp simply because of his pace..which means he gets to contests and can be a target..if he'sat the contests that can slow the opposition down even without actually winning the contest. Sure he missed a couple last week but he had made position, and had he slotted them, he's a star, so, if he gets over the yips, he may yet prove to be an asset. Chandler had some lean days before he became a lock..I think they are giving Sharp time because we are not a fast running team..if he comes good that will be a win. Then we'll have three speedsters Kozzie, Windsor and Sharp...I am happy with him, he's flashed in a few times over the season, but hoping for a couple more flashes of brilliance to give him confidence.

Fritta deserves a full game after his efforts. It was a completely different attitude on Sunday...Played like a man possessed.. Shows that this game is played 90% between the ears. If he's got that attitude back, who knows why it had disappeared, as a proven match winner, he needs to start

I wonder why you would use that analogy when Biden pressers were as coherent as senility itself.....just saying!!!

Why?

Loved his anger nd mean face when telling the boundary ump off when he didn't give that deliberate out.. His showed some attitude we haven't seen for a while!!
