    Also want to get a gauge on how he compares to the Suns young players, at this stage.
  2. May be the AFL should be made aware of these video's, on so called Hawk TV.
  3. We need speed, run and agility, in our forwardline... so no Tracca or TMc. TMc can start there... but I want him high, up in the midfield, to take marks around the centreline. Tracc I want him out of the F50. I want him to start in the Pivot. and rotate from the bench. He can run forward in play, but I don't want him starting in the forward 50. We need plenty of speed, inside 50. A selection of, Weide, Preuss, Keilty, can be the talls inside 50 IMO we need more marking dominance across the centreline... with today's defensive press... the '666' rule... and the extended goal-square. Class and speed, across both half-back, and half-forward lines

    ah, good.
  5. I'd like Langdon... But I reckon we should go all out for free agent Coniglio, first and foremost... with Jones and Lewis nearing the outer edge of the AFL footy. And Jeffy... then Nev, not too far off, as well. ... so, for what I've read above... In order I'd want us to go hard at >>> Coniglio 1st..... open your cheque-book Melbourne... this one we have to WIN. ........................ Langdon 2nd Papley 3rd

    and I tipped against us this week ?
  7. Don't drag it down to bad publicity for Melbourne. A person could be in real trouble... because some idiot likes to abuse opposition supporters, and knock beers out of their hands.
  8. good luck, i hope you do TRGN.
  9. I agree as well, with this, and the responsibility, as in with Pubs, rests with the Licensee.? or in this case the AFL... surely.?
  10. Easy to say when someone has just attacked you ??? If someone swiped your face as you walked past and caught you unsuspecting, would you cower or would you be aggressive in responding ? This might be the circumstances of what took place ? When I was a bullied kid I would have coward. My older wiser self would be aggressive back. call it PTSD, or whatever you want, but the past torments do weigh high on the agenda of everyone... even Police with PTSD. Not everyone is as inwardly calm, and well centred, as that ideology requires.
  11. you mean Rick?
  12. Where was they're (CH7's) investigative journalism? before the story? Seems we've done most of it for them... more media 'demonisation' of Males, without fully investigating the facts... placing all fault one way. They don't care who they beat up on, with their thrills TV... they can destroy people with their ccrapp.

    They're young. they might not understand about, 'outside to inside swing', Yet.? and the effects of.?
  16. I think the club knows what we've got with Weide... But I sense we want to see some more of Keilty. so I reckon Keilty stays in. ... and Weide I think will get another game as the number 1 forward with Casey this week. I reckon Weide will come back in fresh, for the bigger games, against the Eagles and Giants.
  17. Imagine TMc on one wing and Frosty on the other with Pertracca in the centre... a strong marking centreline. with Lockhart on a flank Hannan opposite, & Keilty in CHF. Weide deep with Hunt. And another small speedster in the pocket. Salem off the B/Flank.
  18. I'm Very happy to have Lockhart Hore in de Demon team... very happy.

    a great turnover our way from Marty.
  20. Max isn't the best player in the league... and he isn't up to last years backend of 2018 season form Yet... but he's improved on his early season form, the last 2 weeks. He still not hitting enough targets at the moment with his taps, yet... Last year he was virtually palming the ball to team-mates. He still doesn't take enough marks around the ground. IMO, Max... could be taking 10 or more marks per-game.

    ??? 20,163_ still a bit shy of the mark, 'DC'.
  22. I didn't see this game.. I listened to it. But I am concerned about how some of our players perceive of how they are going. and how we judge them... effecting their own perceptions of themselves. Some players are too hard on themselves, and some, maybe not hard enough, in some ways https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/fts_match_statistics?mid=9776&sby=14#t1 https://www.afl.com.au/match-centre/2019/7/melb-v-haw#full-time-stats Melbourne Player K H D M HO FF FA T G B AF 1 Max Gawn 13 4 17 6 46 2 0 2 0 0 121 2 James Harmes 17 14 31 6 0 2 3 5 1 1 117 3 Michael Hibberd 17 9 26 8 0 2 1 2 0 0 100 3 Jay Lockhart 13 7 20 8 0 1 0 4 1 0 100 5 Christian Salem 18 8 26 5 0 0 0 3 0 0 97 5 Clayton Oliver 13 17 30 8 0 3 4 2 0 1 97 7 Marty Hore 14 4 18 7 0 2 0 2 0 0 81 8 Nathan Jones 11 9 20 1 0 2 2 5 1 1 77 9 Alex Neal-Bullen 8 4 12 1 0 1 0 8 1 0 74 9 Jake Melksham 10 10 20 2 0 0 1 5 0 1 74 11 Jayden Hunt 9 6 15 5 0 0 1 1 2 1 68 11 Billy Stretch 10 8 18 4 0 0 0 1 1 0 68 13 Angus Brayshaw 11 10 21 2 0 0 0 0 1 0 65 14 Bayley Fritsch 11 3 14 6 0 1 2 0 1 1 59 15 Tom McDonald 8 3 11 3 2 2 1 3 1 0 58 16 Oscar McDonald 8 0 8 6 0 0 0 2 0 0 50 17 Jordan Lewis 8 5 13 2 0 1 0 1 0 0 45 18 Josh Wagner 4 5 9 2 0 0 0 4 0 0 44 19 Jeff Garlett 5 4 9 2 0 1 1 2 1 2 43 19 Christian Petracca 6 5 11 2 0 0 0 2 0 1 43 21 Sam Frost 7 5 12 4 0 0 1 0 0 0 40 22 Declan Keilty 3 3 6 2 3 1 1 2 0 0 30 .
  23. It's not about the force... it's about the attitude... and the thinking that Law/right, is on ones side, or the other. So they can 'carry-on', with these beliefs. The attitude to treat people this way, and the thinking that either has the right to start up, an in your face physical aggravation... is the problem. That Hawks man is the beginnings of trouble... We can see how he acts and responds with utter contempt. The LACK of respect for fellow people, is the beginnings of Conflict. The desire to cause conflict is the problem. To allow him, because he is, or isn't, in some way disabled ??? is only endorsing, and embedding, his Problems. IMO this Hawk person's 'inner dis-empowerment', is the issue... and because of this, he looks to assert Hurt on others. to feel some personal Power.
  24. We can't have it both ways. or every way . making exceptions to the rule to suit one way of thinking... is a COP out. and a LAW out. The culture starts with Women. and ends with Men. You can't tell me women of the decades are not seriously attracted to the "Clint Eastwood's" and the Steve McQueen's, the Jean-Claude van Damme's... and they're screen behaviors. They are the ones mostly, who teach boys to not cry, not to whinge, etc... and they are the ones who allow the girls to do the traditional 'expected', behaviors... like being the victim, being the crier, and being manipulative, rather then being up front. This is mostly reinforced by the Men, when they get home. And all the while its being modeled on TV for Kids 'boys and girls' to emulate... this is where the culture begins, and is learnt from. Apart from the depth of... which is carried thru the genes from the parents. ... evolution is slow, and the kids genes will reflect the genes of the parents, at the time of conception... ie: don't conceive when unfit... but get fit and then conceive 6 months after becoming fit, & while still being fit. This culture of hitting/punching/slapping is the Problem of both Sexes, and of OUR cultures. Its an aggressive culture, right throughout. We cannot pick and choose if we want it to change. Look at the USA, and the shootings they have there. They are born into the western gunslinger mentality. Were power and death go hand in hand, and are expected and adored. ...... Keep your hands off my Stash !!! ... a Very 'Self' culture. Of greed, and of, 'Us & Them'. .

    just a [censored] take on 7's 'roamin Bryan'... set in Ol' Roman days interviewing in Roman Bathhouses. Perhaps CH7 could get roamin Bryan into a toga... for a good cause ??? ☺️
