Thanks Roosy. Our midfield is better with him in there atmo. He improved us, but this won't last, as we will move past needing him, maybe even as soon as this season. Salem hopefully, and Hunt as well, will shake Tyson from the team, as Viney pushes back in, and Spargo will be around for a little while, before he goes back to Casey. I can see Tyson's time is limited with us.

Oscar Baker might shake Tyson's spot up a little, when he gets going?

Tyson is a good player, that's why he is valuable as a trade option. He has limitations with speed etc, and outside work is so so. He is very good inside with hands, spotting targets, but we, I think, are going to go past him in not too distant future, with others who offer more across the field. We need options for trade to improve the team list. We can't rely solely on drafting kids. It's time for a couple of free agents, to help spread the load on-field. Tyson I see as one possible trade option. We can't hang-on to all of them.

And make him run hard, both ways. change him off the bench. He would be useful helping carry the ball from defence.

Put him on the wing.

I don't know if you noticed the few occasions in the last couple of weeks, where both were clean bowled out on their lone-somes. The Ball went past them down low on separate occasions. They were each out in space. This cannot happen in future, if we're to play finals, its just an area of weakness, particularly for Oscar, & a lesser degree for Lever, when he was less confident than yesterday. Oscar has a long road of improvement ahead of him, before he becomes a leader, as defenders go. Admittedly the standard in the AFL has dropped, the last couple of years. but lets not put Oscar up on a pedestal. he's not that good yet. And I've been one of his biggest supporters over his journey. but he's improved, but only improved. He's got a lot of weakness's, including his leg strength. still. he's on the improve.

A little bit laconic, needs to develop some more intensity. For those soon to be, oneday, Finals games.

Yes but let us not get ahead of himself. He now has to improve below his knees, and gain more intensity,,, and stop getting clean bowled by full length deliveries. Lever as well, let some low balls roll past below knee level. We cannot let any ball past us in the back half. especially ground ball.

A girly name, 'charlie', but he wears the pants__ not so sure about wattshisface jacky boy. .... just whispering sweet nothings, into his shell like, is Charlie & Nat... and Oli's just making sure, all is above board. Maybe Brendon had a 'zit', on his neck ?

Well, he only got 4 kicks 'cf', but he nabbed 2 goals. Had 3 tackles, and 14 handballs, also took 4 marks, the little fella. Watta game !

el gato Fritz >>> wattshisface.

self belief is what makes ALL the difference in talented but struggling young players. don't you ever ! look within the words, to search for the meaning ? or you haven't discovered this yourself, yet.

belief; self; a funny thing, happened on the way to the 'G'.

And he's a senior leader now... who is playing like a baby boy. He is NOT showing the way forward, as a 28Yr old regular senior player should be. ... more in the mold of, watts his name again. lackluster efforts.

Garlett has to be dropped, for not turning up for 2018.

not looking with an open viewpoint. looking thru a glass onion. so many can't see, what they do not want to see. the forward who maybe a defender in waiting. or the defender who maybe a wingman?

Well lets hope he's lay'd claim to all of them then. We might need the whole family yet.

Glass chins, never get stronger. Just like 2 chins, they never return to singularity.

Yes, I realise that. he lived around Sandringham I think. the point remains IF he wants to go West, I'd be Open to that happening. if we were compensated rightly.

That was the hawks pressure and our clubs collective panic, setting in. The Melbourne Yips, is what i'm talking about. (that here we go again thing) We have to work on 'cutting it', from all our minds. because what it does is magnify the pressure our players feel out there. They do indeed sense it. the fear/negativity. All Demons must learn to NOT Fear.

I'd be open to that if Angus wanted to go home West. If he wanted to do that, I would be open to trade. Also there is no guarantee on his health, in future seasons.

LoL. Devils advocate. I think he may well have been in the line of sight of selectors after his efforts. but not now. So, IMO, if I was selector, I would be looking to add a nippy player who can be defensive minded, to account for some nimble Hawks.

I guess its just his position in footy life, pd.

Yeah that bloody Misson has gotta lot to answer for. handicapping our players like he does. did anyone here have any success sacking him, ever ? better not stuff up our September glory Miss'.

Simple. When houses, medicine and food, & just plain living, become a slavery act to survive, then the current capitalistic system has gone beyond its use buy date. This is the end of capitalism as we know it, because its become a cannibal. The anti-christ has worked its spell into the big 'C' ; and now its all downhill for big 'C'... 'the people, they are a changin'.
