Good to have him sing on for a few more years and reject opposition interest. He's an important cog on our half forward line so hopefully he can remain injury free and build on his decent form this year. Only a few key players left to sign up now...

MATCH PREVIEW AND TEAM SELECTION - Round 17
Lord Travis replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Love Gus but not 100% sold on the change. We need run to match the Saints at Etihad and Stretch is one of best for this. I would've rested Omac after his injury last week. Hopefully we can finally beat them though! -
Was too young to remember him playing, but I don't like snipers. Hard and fair, but no sniping. To my family Mitchell is nicknamed 'The Nutcracker', as he smacked two guys in the nuts ack 2009-2010 and got away with it. Hodge is 'The Drunken Flail' as he's a drink driver and has belted numerous guys in the head. Lewis is known as 'Balding sniper'. All 3 are overrated dirty footballers.

Last night was a close game anyway by two teams not at their best. Umpires decided it in the end unfortunately. If the AFL is serious about equalization it will change the rules so top 4 teams cannot bring in free agents, only lose players. Until they do we are stuck in an endless cycle of the same few teams at the top. 3 teams have won 9 of the last 11 flags. It's rubbish.

Mitchell is a nut punching sniper. Caused a few key cookies as well. Hodge is a dirty sniper who smashed blokes heads into goal posts or just straight up punches them in the head. Lewis is a dirty sniper who whacks blokes in the head when there is a pack around a ground ball. Their senior players are [censored] blokes and I have zero respect for them. I hope we never have players who resort to the sort of dirty cheating that the Hawks players do. Be hard and fair.

Hawthorn can't score without getting a free kick to aid them. Free kicks 15-7. No surprises there. Sick of watching these shitstains win.
-
The constant barracking and wanking over Hawthorn by all commentators is pathetic. It's at the point where I will Barack for any team over Hawhtorn because I'm sick of hearing about how good every little touch any of their players is, even when they're losing!

Jack Watts signs for three years (21/7/16)
Lord Travis replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
It appears Jack has already re-signed and the club are holding off the announcement. On the Footy Show last night he was part of a stupid golf segment and they said he was fresh off signing a new contract and congratulated him and he thanked them and didn't correct them or anything. Go Jack! Go Dees! -
MATCH PREVIEW AND TEAM SELECTION - Round 17
Lord Travis replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
We need to win this match and tick off another hoodoo broken. There's no excuse to lose to a team we are clearly better than twice in one season. Just get it done Dees! -
We should make a few changes purely as we're coming back from NT and need fresh bodies full of run for Etihad. Hopefully we have learned our lesson from earlier this year when they thumped us. And hopefully T-mac does what he is told this time and doesn't get sucked up the ground into no mans land. Cmon Dees let's finally beat this completely average football team! It's only been 10 years!?!

Jack Watts signs for three years (21/7/16)
Lord Travis replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
He's very mentally tough individual. To have copped all the pressure and negativity hurled at him since he was thrown to the wolves in his debut through until now shows the character and toughness he has. I can't recall anyone in football having as much crap thrown at them as Watts has endured. Now he can finally flip off all the haters and stand tall as a quality player. Will be happy when the news is official, but for now I'm just wrapt for him as a person to be producing the quality he was always capable of. Good onya Jack! -
Good to see him back and play well. Wasn't a perfect game but he won a lot of ball and worked hard when we didn't have possession too. Will be good to see him reach 100 games next week. He deserves it!
-
Righto. AFL live not streaming our game for some reason so I'm gonna go get shitfaced instead and hope we win. What a [censored] one.
-
Game not loading in AFL live app. Don't pay for foxtel so now have no way of watching it. [censored] brilliant. I can see we're already losing. Great night this is turning into!

MATCH PREVIEW AND TEAM SELECTION - Round 16
Lord Travis replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Official ins: Grimes, White Official outs: Dawes, Bugg Good luck to Grimes as he well and truly deserves his chance. White is an exciting prospect too so happy to see him back! -
I read a pointless argument that has no conclusion due to lack of facts. Let's talk about Hunt or the guy in your avatar who is having a great year for the red n blue!
-
Why the [censored] are we talking about Dangerfield in a Jayden Hunt thread? Hunt is a super exciting prospect for the Dees. Dangerfield is some bloke from another that club that I couldn't give two sh*ts about. How awesome is it seeing Hunt just take off when he gets the ball!
-
He's a favorite of mine already. I thought that he and Wagner shouldn't have been picked at the start of the year as they were both hopeless in the NAB matches. Hunt has proven he has all the assets to be a line breaking player for us long term. Still not sold on Wagner, but Hunt is a ripper. Love that he runs hard both ways and brings the intensity defensively with his tackles. He still struggles at the centre bounces, as he generally pushes up to be at the contest but never seems to get to the right spot and winds up leaving his man free in the defensive 50. He still has a lot to work on but gee he's exciting!

The way the Saints demolished us at Etihad, and watching them demolish Geelong there tonight... We are no chance against them. Pisses me off they've had it over us for so long!
-
Prestia is more proven than Crouch but Crouch has a higher ceiling. If we could get either it would be good for our midfield stocks as they've had a few years in the system and could both be a graders if their bodies hold up.
-
Sh*t idea and lower placed clubs like us would get stuck down the bottom even more. Leave the rules alone and make players stay at one f*cking club.
-
I don't understand why he's being criticized on here. On form since his return a few weeks ago he's in our top dozen players. How is he being criticized for this? I know we all get excited by our young talent but at the end of the day he's performing better than most of them and will get better as he gets fitter. Until that young talent surpasses him, and if he maintains his current form, he is automatically best 22. End thread.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB – JAKE MELKSHAM
Lord Travis replied to Theo's topic in Melbourne Demons
He'll be a good addition next year. I think he's being underrated on here. He's slot straight into the midfield or half back and finish top 10 in our bnf, maybe top 5 depending on the role he plays. He's got all the right skills, decent pace and toughness, and in a fresh environment with the weight lifted he will flourish. -
We need to talk about Jack? What's there to tak about? On form he's in the top dozen players at the club and will only improve as he gets fitter and picks up the speed of AFL level more. Anyone who thinks he should be dropped or delisted must not watch football.
