There is no reason he would want to come and play with us...he wants to continue being the no.1 ruck somewhere

Conversion rate of supporters into members
darkhorse72 replied to La Dee-vina Comedia's topic in Melbourne Demons
I would say the percentage conversion is a lot lower know as we have picked up a lot more "supporters" since the 2021 GF and the presence of Trac in the team. How long they will follow us , who knows. -
The audience seems to be growing and that is all the matters for the AFL. The more we grow the "safer" the will be.
-
But I would say their game in finals was not the same as they played in the H&A especially in the GF. Their style was quite different and less frantic to reduce scoring against them. McRea is a smart coach.
-
He had great hands during the game and got some great goals, but gee he made a lot of mistakes when up the ground though. Not a smart footballer.
-
Only just finished watching the last qtr, gee aren't Brisbane a low pressure finals side in finals. Who else found the final pressure nothing like ours and pies/GWS final games. Rarely was it frantic. While there was a lot of tension form the close score it wasn't a classic game. As wasn't the Brownlow medal are driving force in his team, gee, what a woeful game from the leaves "best" player when the team needed him. But what other player really stood up for them consistently around the ball, very few. AllI can say I'm glad I'm in Perth :)

Based upon our experience this plan will not developed, simply putting more young kids into a side at the bottom does not fix the wider team problems. Looks like they are losing a lot of their mature talent (Actually talent) this year, which we know puts you further behind. They could be on a very long path like GC, lots of high draft talent but not culture left. Look how long GC have taken to just be competitive. They should be given extra support in the soft cap for development coaches etc. And if McKay avg less than 10 possession a game, gee, why would you want him. Or did he just defensive punch and watch the ball?

Thanks, she wasn't very good, however you say spell her name.

Another great game by the girls... so well drilled and coached and the stability has allowed that with great drafting. The number of ex-demons players do well at other clubs from the early days show's we have a great talent scout from the start. Then decisions to bring in a player like Harris on "Big" money to fill a gap. How big is the squad, i.e. how many players haven't we seen?0 Yes bigger games to come, but the cats were considered one that will play finals so it was a good test to step up. Crows and Roo's are the most interesting games coming up. The last goal thing, not that it affects the players but as a supporter I get more stressed for the first team to break it. Strange isn't it thinking that. Its like the tension of a close game and making sure they don't score. Lastly that main female commentator we have had for the last 2 games, is it Underwood, not sure? She is annoying me by stating footy terms like hospital handball etc when they clear weren't, just to sound smarter for some reason. It's annoying, they did a few times last night for other actions in the game. Otherwise the girls are looking good.

No surprise it's the swans, that's the type of mid they look for. He should do well up there and simply at the moment he's the extra mid that only come sin when someone is out. Good luck to him, except when playing us.

Jimmy Toumpas gets his premiership
darkhorse72 replied to The Great Pretender's topic in Melbourne Demons
On memory he was supposed to go before our pick and when not selected we jumped. I guess those above already in the queue had worked it out. We may have had Wines instead! -
That was shocking on TV to try and watch. Not a good time to schedule a game. And top it off the camera crew must have been the work experience kids that day, so often they were no where near where the ball was when filming the game. it was off to the right or left of the frame out of sight so often.
-
We like borrowing your flags etc for the Perth based games, really good. The query I have, is when are they going to get rid of the nets behind the goals during games, really makes us not want to sit with the cheer squad. Maybe the cheer squad to locate to the pocket as a group when in Perth. This years game is at mineral resources park for the first time, so not sure of the best sitting possies. Fremantle oval sucks.
-
Great start to the season in terms of wins, now a game clear. However, what is more important is the way they are winning. Excellent team system to works with the strengths of the players. Not losing anyone show how tight they are. They also have a strong belief n themselves to overrun opposition sides.
