  1. Am surprised the word I used is censored..
  2. The author of the article is a [censored]. I love Jones, but he is far from our most important resigning, as is Ablett at Geelong, by putting ageing veterans in his most important signings takes away a lot of credibility
  3. It is actually the first time I have ever had anything like a dig at Saty, my comment was made as I found the “ex-basketballer goggles” comment quite condescending (though I actually agree with the point he was making, to me it is ludicrous to be worrying about a category B rookie in his first few weeks of training)
  4. Please do post it, I am sure that this one picture will be more than enough to change DrDee’s mind, surely your pic will provide him with more evidence than what he would get from watching live training for over an hour.
  5. 5 even 6 years. Are those posts serious? 3 years should make all parties very happy.
  6. 2017 suggests he can 2018 he can’t
  7. Really? Living here, I had never noticed. (Get the sarcasm this time?)
  8. A great alliance for both the club and the NT, long may it continue. Love the way you talk about the “climate” in the NT, because Alice and Darwi; have very similar climates?
  9. Don didn’t play again in the seniors, had a six week ‘suspension’, after a bit of a drunken run in with team officials after the game in Shanghai, where he was the traveling emergency
  10. Haven’t seen her play, but she is a very popular teaches aide at my daughters school, leaves for Melbourne tomorrow, something she is nervous about having always lived here in Alice. Good luck to her, she will be missed by the school up here.
  11. With respect to Jack, it wasn’t his peers that chose him as captain.
  12. We can’t make him defend, no-one can
  13. Menzel is a very smart medium forward who can really hurt teams on the scoreboard, he will get a gig somewhere, that said, not with us. He doesn’t fit with our game style, so would be staggered if we were to recruit him. Neade in the other hand, may be worth considering, but I haven’t seen him enough to have an informed opinion
  14. While I get, understand and agree with most of your post, he was talked up from season one big time as what he did in his first season on the ground put others to shame, he just hasn’t really put the foot down, but if and when he does, he will be a scary opponent to play against
  15. Have seen a Demons members scarf for sale in a department store in Hyderabad, India
  16. Sorry mate, have no recollection of where I read it.
  17. Have read that the Pies were his first choice, but knew the chance of them being able to trade for him was minimal at best, we were his second (and better) choice
  18. Vili’s are better
  19. I want us to draft the best available, highly skilled outside mid who has some toe, right now we have Salem and KK and then the cupboard is bare
  20. Rod Grinter Riot Squad replied to Deeman's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    It produces sympathy... Things changing, but not that quick
  21. Is this the guy with dreadlocks who completely disappeared in the VFL finals?
  22. Pick 65 is what it is (not 55) and it is not a kick in the teeth, it is a mild bump off the ball, the sort of bump that makes you laugh
  23. Good on him. Love his choice of clothing. Will never forget the looks I got when I rocked up to my graduation at Monash in dirty jeans and an old jumper?
  24. Very true, but those two years would have been invaluable for Hogan’s development, something that shouldn’t be discarded
  25. Do remember, what we remember as Hogan’s first year was actually his third year in the system and in that year, he didn’t perform comparably to how Weid did in some huge games to finish this season. (Don’t get me wrong, I rate Hogan enormously and was gutted when I first thought about him leaving, but I do believe we will be a better team with the inclusion of May)
