  1. Very happy to play the Dockers in Perth Rd1 if it comes that way. The fixture will see us pay the likes of GWS, Saints twice anyway, so don't care about when. I really like the thought of the players training all pre season with a view to Freo away, might just harden them up a bit. We'd all expect to get smashed, cause hey we have for years......but mate just maybe? I don't think we'd win but momentum can be built from showing structure, discipline and spirit. Go on the road boys and come home proud. As Ross Lyon says "anyone, anywhere, anytime".
  2. Agree, very happy to bring Agree, very happy to bring in Michie and have him fight for a spot with Cross, McKenzie, Toumpas and keep Bail, Nicho! Blease out of the team.
  3. Good. We haven't leaked at all, time to post a fact Demons.
  4. Armitage so my mad passionate saints fan mum says!
  5. A very promising year, best of all proved he can work hard and earn something. A great kick who looked to classy at VFL level and seemed composed at AFL. Should really come on in 2014 and give us a skilled half back or alternate wing, tagger etc.
  6. They also have posted their pick 22 will get shuey if they add Colyer instead of our pick 2!
  7. Ah some rumours, or potential facts. Kick straight, who would have thought he'd be such as task master! Happy with Levi and Sloane and some surprises. Nicho could very well be a Clint Jones type, don't think he'd ever hit Crowley status. Thanks norm.
  8. Seems smoke fire thing. Mick would have needed some bad cops in his day, seems Neeld, Watters and Bucks may have all delivered. Though Brad Scott seems ok, not that North have nailed it yet. Nice to know others have issues, cause the Demons are about to rise and the quicker they fall, the sooner we go past them!
  9. How about we build a team that can win some games. As many have said chappy gives drive and leadership we need in spades, I'd also prefer him in the side that Nicholson, Jetta, Evans etc, and they all got games this year. Happy if he plays 12 games at the G and on in Geelong, maybe he could teach us how to approach it.
  10. No, only a premiership! I guess I'd take that from Michie in red and blue.....
  11. Some hysterical responses on here....I imagine the exact same responses had we ever reported Al Clarkson was becoming an Assistant in his first ever coaching gig post playing. I've no idea if he can coach, but I do know he wasn't ever the play I wanted him to be - but did play 170 odd games on what seemed limited ability after being recruited about pick 50. A pretty handy career that we'd have been thrilled if any of our recent high picks had! Welcome back Millsy.
  12. Has the speed of blease at half back but actually touches the footy more than six times a game. Good player.
  13. Like this, seems to me this is the Melbourne Storm. Storm have 3-4 out and out superstars on massive coin and a decent list of no names earning stuff all. That's why so many of them leave, get new big deals elsewhere but can't perform without Slater, Cronkite and smith beside them and Bellamy screaming at em!
  14. Crap result for the casey boys. So keen to see finals progress but again we fall. Really need the demons still playing this time of year so all players are trying to win vfl and push for afl selection. Interested to see roos impact at casey.
  15. Happy to have a lazy $500 he is signed and announced in the next 48 hours. Just under promising and over delivering now. Love it
  16. Just read my way to post #4174....wow must be big news, is Scully coming back? Seriously this is the best news in years. At the footy last night with my two young boys I was having to explain how when daddy was young we won a lot....I saw us beat Sydney in Sydney. I only ever watched two games at footy park in Adelaide and we won both of them, geez I can't to stop reminising about games ten years ago. I can't wait till I go to the footy as we actually have a crack, believe we might win, players believe in each other and their coach, and we look like a footy side. Roosy, can't wait to have you on board. Actually don't care which players come or go after that, all demons in 2014 with walk with a Howey like spring in their step. For what it's worth I have no sources.....but he is ours, wonderfully staged managed by PJ also.
  17. Thanks KC, c'mon scorps bring it home. How's the big Russian going?
  18. Listened with interest to Roos talking about the Swans midfield the other day - players in the small forward mould (ala Milne, Betts, Davey) DON"T get a game at Sydney if they can't rotate through the midfield also. This is why they use Mitchell, McGlynn, O'Keefe as "small forwards". The Swans seems to simply have 5-6 BIG blokes and 16-17 mids each week.
  19. As the colliwobbles kicked the second goal today to go 13 points in front my pies mate said, geez we miss Dawes, q stick is a spud....and they went on to lose, and we win, and Dawes does well. There is a god!
  20. 6. Watts 5. Terlich 4. Dawes,as much for his leadership 3. Jones 2. Frawley 1. Nicho....except for griffins last qtr Wow, can't wait to wake the kids up about a win!
  21. Well done young Mitch, only watched him once at Port Melbourne game and thought he looked really classy, tough, a great raking kick and had some real dash. Like a rich mans Clint Bartram, no disrespect meant Clint!
  22. Interesting debate, having just listened to Jeff interview on Triple M I'm more for him than I was before....and I was one of the crowd who votes him out of politics after he lost the people.....but he achieved a massive amount and made me proud to be Victorian again. Or state was a debacle in the Joanie and Cain eras, everyone off the QLD and embarrassed to be a Vic. As for him not being a Dees fan.....I get the passion debate, I mean its the only reason I'm writing this.....but I'd loe the fact we have former mad passionate Bomber Jackson as CEO, I warmly welcomed a former Pie as coach, loved when we got a big Lion as our new full forward, an ex Crow to run footy science, would love to have passionate Cat Balmly back as Footy Director and so on. S if I can happily have a non Demon become a Demon in every other club role why not a board member???? Whether he comes in or not I reckon him being so active right now if good for us, something will happen and happen quickly either way. Jeff said we'd no more early this week including others involved......big week ahead, maybe we might even win a game!
  23. So tonight my 4 & 6 year old boys spent a straight hour talking non stop about demons this, demons that, why is grimes a Blackman on footy cards, who can jump higher than Howe, why did Dawes play for the magpies, is viney foot better yet......and on and on and on......BUT they started the conversation with this priceless quote: "Dad, wouldn't it be awesome if we got the Dockers coach, and then we gave them our Coach, they would lose then"! Priceless, the innocence of youth!
  24. I think Anderson deal to hawks was done before Barry. Anderson was highly regarded by many, and the obvious get from NT.
