We haven't won a first round since 2005
Since 2007 we have only beaten 2 Victorian teams (Ess & Rich)
Both track records I will be happy to consign to history. Don't care how we do it. Its just important that we do and we start the year with some momentum
Actually it isn't. They have cut and pasted a lot of stuff.
Mitch Clark for example....
The Demons hope Clark can add size, marking power and mongrel to their forward line after securing the former Lion for pick No. 12 last Trade Week.
Watts
Had a fine 2011......
The club has very few people fulfilling this role. Its not like we have a department of 15 people.
They have been busy with Darwin and training notes etc. Don't stress, complain and look for what's missing.
Or better still perhaps you should volunteer your services?? The club would be grateful.
They are all done by Telstra. Its a mess. ANd they are so far behind modern best practice its a joke. But they pay $150m a year to the AFL. End of argument.
8 wins is a pass???? With the draw we have? That's insane.
It should be a 10 win minimum starting with Rd 1 when we haven't won since 2005. PLaying Port at home should be the perfect start.
And the NAB Cup? I want to see some momentum. We never have any going into the year and it is in my view vital that we register some good form in the NAB cup to take that momentum into the year.
Glad to have you on board.
PLenty of time wasting to be had..but then again we have a long time to go before we play in 2013 and we have got to do something...
How is your selective memory? Clark was nominated for the AA team in 2009. To say we have got a better output in 2012 (given he played half a season in fact) than his time at the Lions is laughable.
I wouldn't be holding your breath about Pederson and Dawes becoming fwd line guns. Pederson couldn't get a game at North and Dawes kicked 16 goals last year (His highest tally is 30 goals).
I think they will both be competitive but they aren't going to be superstars in the short term
