i didnt use the free ticket for Sunday night as i thought Thursday nights allocation might favour those who adopted this course .Best i could do was be placed in the ballot so just hoping
-
Bennell seems at present to walk with an affected gait ,almost a limp.In the warm up was only moving at half pace .not sure if he will be ever completely right but a managed omission might br whats needed for this week. .As brave as he is I think Jetta is finished .He is so slow that everything is done under pressure .Tmac is a certainty to return and I would play Tomlinson.

The Oscar McDonald Appreciation Thread
kallangurdemon replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
no I also thought Oscar was poor tonight particularly in pressure situations .Seems to just freeze . -
more a case of Jones being better suited to the forecasted conditions rather than a message to TMac
-
i think Harmes may tag Zorko because he has been successful in the past in that role .Maybe no tag on Neale and punt on Maxs ruck dominance .
-
i think his hands are still pretty good .More just a matter of timing his leads and his leap.Still has the attributes to make a valuable forward
-
No trade .We just dont know how to do it effectively . No Mike Brewers at our club .Probably end up trading Max for him
-
thankfully we have the Giants at home .Important home game for us..Not certain how often the Giants visit GWS stadium.
-
he looked completely underdone Saturday night ,was puffing and panting and looking for a rest but still managed to take more marks than any one in our forward line through sheer ability alone .
-
we would be better off avoiding any trade .We don't do that at all well .we would just end up on the wrong side of the balance sheet .The list is good enough already to perform well .
-
Bring back the super raffles so at least I can feel that i'm in with a chance .
-
not to mention the sleep patterns of Rory Hilton.
-
lets be clear so that no one is misled and increases the risk of infection to others .Even if you have no symptons you must maintain social distancing to avoid unknowingly spreading the virus .The spread of the virus by not maintaining distance was the risk of the weekend demonstrations.

A Lockdown Lesson: Old Footy Was Better
kallangurdemon replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
The vast preponderance of opinion in this thread is that the game in previous decades was a better spectacle .I fully concur with this view and have nothing to add, .However the solution is more intriguing .The WAFL adopted as we are all aware a 16 on the field model with a view to make for a more flowing game .The ground are no bigger today than the 1980s but the players today are and they cover such more ground .The problem of congestion has been exacerbated by the Rodney Eade flood .Is it time to consider the old VFA 16 player a side formula which at least provided extremely watchable footy. -
Sacked: Brock McLean reveals booze and drug binges
kallangurdemon replied to whatwhat say what's topic in Melbourne Demons
Not sad at all.He was very much the author of his own misfortune and part of the problem at the club.Not even gracious enough to leave without embroiling the club in an unwarranted and debilitating enquiry -
fair go it was only 186, you make it sound like a thrashing !
-
tragically became only a shadow of his former self after the recos. Prior to this was probably the most promising forward I had seen at Melbourne .Would have been every bit as good as Carey.

The Best MFC footballer from QLD?
kallangurdemon replied to #-11TonyAnderson's topic in Melbourne Demons
i thought potentially Barry Denny from Morningside was our best .Got cleaned up by Terry Wheeler and career disappeared after that . -
I don't know where the sobriquet The Count may have emanated from but to us in the outer Paul was always lovingly referred to as Tamba for fairly obvious reasons .Yes he is a great guy who only left because of the Ridley sacking .
-
graeme osborne (no.7 known as Brylcreem )would be my unbackable nomination for the worst player to ever play 100 senior VFl/AFL games from any club in the history of the competition .
-
well done Demonland. Lovely gesture in these difficult times that made my day .
-
Russell Colcott. Yet another undersized full forward ,but what a leap! Worth the admission just to see him fly for speccies. Didnt last long and then went to Oakleigh but an enormous natural talent .
-
toadd ..
-
This is very much a case of ,blessed are those who have not seen but yet believed.We only have to think back to last Sunday to see the enormous up side of a Jesse return but sadly I also believe it wont happen .
-
wow ! no Salem you are certainly a tough marker
