and that makes them above it ??? Not a bit...mean they got off. There is a difference

unless you disagree

id actually say quite a bit has changed....all but one thing..... the obvious... Dont expect miracles, dont expect much. Just the ability to play footy at its basic .. Still a long way off. Thought this was being addressed

and to make it worse I do believe Jack really tries...really..Its just not in his make up to impose, and he needs to.

I really get no joy out of Trenners being dropped but its not really bout any individual..You have to construct the best team. And as such any and all players are just a piece of this puzzle . For mine their individual careers mean ABSOLUTELY nothing, that is nothing more than they can contribute and if they cant cut it...its over there with the others...and then off the list in some fashion.

nailed it...unfortunately

I think it fair to say that is the generally accepted "skills are wonderful" world of weighting players that not enough is given to possibly the "body ready" factor ...or "guy had a bit of moxy factor' yes these seem like airy fairy ambiguities but in all reality so are many of the made up meaures as used by the draft camp. Good old figjam realised that it gave no credence to some very basic skills....like kicking a ball with any effect. But hey he can run around cones and jump and hit a thing at V height and run up and down an court ....= kid 's brilliant . Yet we know there are as many factors in between all of these that really sort a potential AFL player form the next kid Emma got it wrong.. most got it wrong. In "theory" Jimmy suited our plan going forward but nothing was proven about him ( no more than may others ) and some classic ingredients that other displayed were downplayed. Now its up to Roos to address this conundrum and make the best of Jimmy..Hope he does.

agree Roos can see things arent going as he would want. He'll constant shuffle and rejig until things start clicking.. He'll be very busy on his "dossiers"

no ones above the law.

its no myth...we have no forward line Roos has pretty well said exactly that I believe him as he ought to know.

hard to just say "ought to be" as no one , or sadly the very few, are setting anything on fire currently maybe the sub is a positive move though

I actually agree with this...its almost a by degrees thing but concur. Toumpas is more useful I think currently than Trengove Doesnt say much for either as such...

the tide may ebb a touch this year but until more of the dead weight is cleared out not much more can be accomplished this season me thinks. When some gelling of the newbies ( trade and draft ) occurs in early 15 then we'll see change

it is april 2 isnt it

all secret squirrel shlt !!!

so is context perhaps yours is ???

Mate...some just wont come at the idea that these are footy players first...they all seem to given infinite largess beccause someones supposed to be this type or that... This is where the whole thing becomes bullshlt. The first job is get ball, second jop to dispose of ball effectively to team mate ...or score. its as f***king simple as that . But NO, this guy is outside or this guy is a back or a fwd , they are supposed to do this or that because THATS not what they were drafted for !!! Has there eve been such a load of codswallop ?? Yes players have roles but first and foremost is the basic idea of footy. It requires BOTH offensive and defensive sides..ALL players ought to be able to effect these. What.....players wait...because its someone elses job ? At Melbourne they do

Of course they want to. its been the mantra all along...i.e minimise the damage to their precious little competition. They wont win though

its what be a Demon supporter is really about

what you are doing here is arguing in a circle You say you dont know what hes got, then you do , or if, and a maybe... a few imagines......and an assumption or two But I grant you its what we all are doing essentially my view IS based on the notion hes suffering from depression. This has all but been underlined by various quotes form the club and a bit of reading between the lines. If its not , b, or c then D is a very good candidate. If D its serious D otherwise a few happy pills is the go. Its beyond the scope of this medication it seems thus justifying an extended absence. Quite often the last place anyone with such conditions will want to be is surrounded by the cause of their malaise. I dont expect him back..If he does play this year I see that a s a bonus.

totally not understood by a lot of people who ALWAYS seem to be about what will happen with some player or other in a couple more preseasons its always about a tommorow that NEVER .....EVER comes but they covert the illusion that somehow it will all happen in a season or two. There will always be drafts and opportunities to trade ..How bout we assemble a team that can compete now...today...and next week. I really couldnt give a rats who actually plays for us..what does it matter ( and it wil matter less and less as FA takes over ) Its about a team.. I support a team...not an arrangement of spuds

and picked up Simpson and rid themselves of Franklin got no idea that mob

We could garner some interest but it would mean some very unemotional decisions. Just for a moment id ask demonlanders to put aside any...and i mean ANY investment in any player and consider what would be best for a future list...then work towards it. You'll have to give up some players to get others. ahhh that wont happen...lol so may neglect the idea of team and see it as an association of players, for whom many have an attachment. Successful teams get past this....and so do we

he needs to get his [censored] together. It will take a while. The longer it takes the lesser the chance of really making an impact,or even for that matter making the list. A long way to go .
