    but the Bourne Legacy is on
  3. Yep... is max, playing ? Or in the stands ?
  4. I think there might be another Out.
  5. I think Frosty is becoming important for the club with his newfound ball use, and responsibility. He's becoming a stayer, unless part of a possible Gaff deal. ---------------------------------------------------- Dom Tyson - Keep/trade Bernie Vince - gone, retire Aaron Vandenberg - ??? Tomas Bugg - ??? Dean Kent - gone, trade --------------------------------------------- Cameron Pedersen - rookie list Declan Keilty - keep/rookie list Dion Johnstone - keep/rookie list Patrick McKenna - no idea? Mitch King - ??? Lachlan Filipovic - ??? Harley Balic - gone .
  6. I'm not worried about Budd getting the footy, as He WILL get it... Its where he gets it that's my concern. And that he isn't able to run freely with the footy. This is why I want Frost on his hammer. I want Budd to have to range high and outside Fitty, to win the ball. He can have the ball in his area, as long as we can control him with it. I want us to jam up the Swans forwardline deep, forcing Budd way up high, with Frost who can run him down, if he gets past. We need to work to keep him on his right side as much as possible and maintain him under pressure. We have to be able to keep the space tight in our D50, so they can't get it in behind Buddy. I think Frost playing close, with Hunt sweeping behind him just in-case he turns Frost around,,, and running past Frost when frost has the ball. I think this will be a dour game.

    The issue remains, even though he's paying well, atmo. He has to be better with the ball use; handballs, and kicking. If he can better on the spread and run, he has a chance. But right now with Viney and Stretch injured, he is in the best 22. Just as JKH is as well atmo.
  8. DV8 replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yes, he's been better, in the absence of Viney.
  9. & Neita...
  10. and definitely no smiling at this stage. ?

    This is why OMc shouldn't play. he's too slow for Budd,,, and not a great kick to position compared to Pedo. Not quick or agile enough, nor strong enough for Budd,,, and also too slow to pressure they're smalls. We don't need his height this week. Pedo is strong enough to match-up on Budd, deep... or others who happen along. Frost is in good form by his standards, and should give Budd his first crack... especially when Budd is playing high. IMO, I reckon we will be more stable with Pedo and Frost as keys.

    They could do with a job, on a road crew.
  13. DV8 replied to What's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    he's joining Geelong?
  14. DV8 replied to McQueen's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Josh Kelly may be too expensive, in my imagination.??? radar. But maybe Whitfield may not be as expensive? sMay I reckon is a must this year, as OMc has regressed since lever got injured,,, so OMc I think, needs more time to mature... Re Finals. .
  15. who, or what ? Marngrook is my Fav... its on tonight at 7.30PM.

    What IF it were your brother that went bang on Gaff ??? would you have a beer with your brother?

    Like the telemetry in F1... they could reset the engine via WiFi, if they wanted to... Who's to say they don't interfere with the No 2 drivers car, late in the race ? I don't like all the potential for interference over the airwaves, and via radio 'code', alerting the No2 driver to start to hold other drivers up. Lets hope all Umpire communication goes direct to air.

    I don't see it Dms56. But I do see similarities to a young 'robbie'. Pre Barassi. The other sides of the coins are, * he is not copping a run with minder, while he moves about. escaping negating tactics. * his moving around keeps him free to follow his natural instincts * he's helping us fill gaps that aids us all,,, as we move towards a finals appearance Next season, maybe he might find a more regular position. Whom,,, I think Mono. ?

    I'm not a huge brad green fan msf. He was a good player, but not as good as he should have been, and not as good as many believe. Similarly, most of the 'champs' of his time as leader. He was the wrong leader, as well.
  20. DV8 replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    He'll be much better than just Brad Green.
  21. DV8 replied to McQueen's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Not with them in the finals, he shouldn't. He's still part of the club, until the contract is up end of season. Unfair to use it, to distract them.
  22. the Blues do not need more elite young talent... they need mature leaders to drive the bandwagon. And they need off-field direction away from getting early picks to play trades with... list management is alive and well down princes park in 2018. Lets see if the blues play trade games with the crows this trade period with the blues first pick... if the blues trade it to the Crows, there has to be an investigation of the 2 clubs,,, going back to last years Gibbs trade.

    LoL I only commented as I tried to watch it the last week & it is just more of the same old garbbb. billy and the crew. the boys bickering first thing and ego's galore... figjam show. its reemerging at 9 again. judd now, on Footy class... is another figjam. No wonder C@rtoon are struggling. Ego Central I wonder If Fitzy will get Gill' to give them a Priority Pick, even in Comm Fitszy's absence.
