Are we capitalising on our on-field successes?
Adam The God replied to Mach5's topic in Melbourne Demons
I did the same haha although I deliberately don't make a habit of facepalming. -

A lot of those facepalmers look ridiculous now. Welcome back, @Mach5 -
OP is Morris.

The Josh Smillie thread
Adam The God replied to spirit of norm smith's topic in Trade, Draft & Free Agency
They also need to desperately rebuild quickly before Tassie. We just need one or two good years to re-set our list profile. -
The Josh Smillie thread
Adam The God replied to spirit of norm smith's topic in Trade, Draft & Free Agency
The thing about Smillie is his kicking to advantage. It's very noticeable. Contrast that with our mids and half forwards, he'd fit in nicely. I'd like 2 or 3 picks in the top 15 this year, there's so much scope in this crop. I'll trust JT though. -
So did I and completely agree mate.

Darren Burgess Potential Return to Victoria
Adam The God replied to adonski's topic in Melbourne Demons
Selwyn is the injury specialist, Burgess is the fitness specialist. Ideally we have both, but I doubt Selwyn would stay if Burgess came back. We absolutely need a new fitness specialist as our fitness was patently not good enough. -
it's still hyperbolic. The club will still be here... This is disastrous if true though.

The software does not have the ability to give you feedback on what words or phrases are banned. You simply have to use your discretion. This has been pretty clear all year on Demonland and poor old Andy is repeatedly having to respond to these types of questions.
-
I disagree. Many people on Demonland seem to want change. It's pretty clear on and off the field we need change. I don't trust the club to do an unbiased internal review. We need a top down external review.
-
Disagree. Third or fourth most successful coach in our history and will have us back up there again very soon.
-
Not sure I agree with this... You don't make exceptions for one person. One of his alleged gripes is apparently that we make exceptions for some when we shouldn't. The idea that the club will fold if Trac leaves is just hyperbole. I presume this was written in an emotional moment.

He's not going to Richmond.

Welcome to Demonland: Pick #5
Adam The God replied to ElDiablo14's topic in Trade, Draft & Free Agency
I reckon Langford is already that player though. He gives us ball use, whilst still being able to win his own ball and take a contested mark. -
Surely it's either an idle threat from Trac's end or merely journalistic licence from a footy media faced by a week of no footy, pre finals...

Welcome to Demonland: Pick #5
Adam The God replied to ElDiablo14's topic in Trade, Draft & Free Agency
Unless we can get two top 10 picks, we won't be able to land players like Langford and Lalor, but if we can land a top 15-20 pick, I reckon Cooper Hynes has a lot of the attributes that Lalor has, but is likely to go later. Then there's Murphy Reid who might provide us something a little different, but I don't see him as a Melbourne type player. However, if we could nab one (or two - fingers crossed) of Langford, Lalor or Hynes, I think we'd be rapt. If we can somehow manufacture three picks in the top 20, it completely changes our list profile. And I hope we'd want to complement this with some experienced faces too, whether it's a Jack Macrae, Cumming or someone else of that 26-30 age range that gives us more options through the midfield and half back. -

I went from 1 to 7 pretty much, with occasional pangs of 6.

Why did we go with Adrian Anderson exactly? Quite happy to throw all the dollars at the courts to needlessly fight Peter Lawrence, but not happy to hire a proper lawyer to defend Kozzy? Get rid of our admin. They're hopeless.

The Harvey Langford Thread
Adam The God replied to spirit of norm smith's topic in Trade, Draft & Free Agency
There's a lot of Bont in this particular game. Strong contested marks, floating deep to kick goals and then getting in done and bursting from clearance and hitting targets by hand and foot. -
Absolutely no way this happens.
-
Plus, he allegedly had coffee with Neale, therefore, trade to Brisbane done and dusted.
-
This is what doesn't compute. You can't throw Brisbane in there as a destination and talk about your brand. They have significantly less fans than us.
-
Surely we have enough money to launch an external review?

Financially or image wise or relationships wise vis a vis home base?
