  1. Salems Lot posted a post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    #37
  2. I watched him on Saturday at Preston and I was impressed with his disposal by foot however it looks like he would be competing with Bowser, Salo or Windsor for a position at the moment and I reckon he is well behind those three
  3. Almost fully fit list makes selection tricky. A good sign that we are dropping good players
  4. Jesse Hogan says Hi! unfortuntaely retention was not strong in this one.
  5. And he marked the ball, a fundamental difference between his and other suspension cases
  6. I reckon Max has no plan to retire in the next two seasons. Still BOG and a star of the comp. I imagine they will trade heavily for a ruckman when his time is up and hope that young Khalani is a hit too
  7. Agreed with Sharp, it seems we saw the best of him against North in a practice match. Hopefully he can do it again
  8. I get what you wanted to see and I too was disappointed but it was great to be so far ahead that we could rest two really important players for the last 10 minutes. In that time their scores came from mismatches in the ruck and up forward.
  9. By being 45 points up we had the luxury of being able to rest Max and May.
  10. We took our captain and key defender off to manage them which you can do when you are 45 points up
  11. Yes, ran out of legs but also rested max and may for the second half of the quarter. We managed our important players which you can do when you are 45 points up.
  12. We took our skipper and our key defender off to rest them. For the first time in the game 33 was rucking against Nankervis. It totally impacted the flow of play.
  13. 5 day break was always going to be a factor. Reflect on that before criticising the last 10 too much
  14. This observation from the Age feed. At least I can access that "They have no marks inside 50. It’s as though they come to training in whatever gear they want to wear and muck around."
  15. Travelling back from a family funeral in Manchester and was hoping to follow on the AFL app. Typically the one app not working in flight! Seems like a funereal performance from our boys based on the comments. Might tell the pilot to go around again.....
  16. #6 and 36 will be very important ins for us
  17. check out the afl website. they show all games
  18. And yet they were 20 to 21 at the end bizzaro!
  19. This is my gripe with umpires. There is a whole book of rules but why do they decide to only focus on a couple at any given time. This year the focus is obviously "Not 15m" a couple of years back it was the stand rule and then dissent rule. Last night when the ducks got close, the Dingley players were absolutely in the umpires faces dissenting like ejits but no 50m penalty given It is like they can't chew gum and walk
  20. Usually against Spiros Orion and Mario Milano (before he went "bad")
  21. Brian Henderson Adam band put it best images.mp4
  22. was waiting for this, Thank you HT
  23. I must say I write a lot of posts on this forum that once I have written them I re-read before posting and then delete. It works reasonably well for me. ( hopefully this is not one of them...)
