Eddie Betts opens up on the weird camp
Dr. Gonzo replied to John Crow Batty's topic in Melbourne Demons
Most Crows supporters I've seen comment on BigFooty want Riccutio gone and Sloane and Walker to follow. -
All of the above 🤣

They're definitely NOT The Beautiful People 🤣

Yep exactly so no easy avenues to goal streaming forward of the stoppage/centre clearance.

From Bigfooty - Melbourne is the AFL's drool team at the moment because they won the flag by 70 points. It was a good game for them, but they're not invincible and it wouldn't surprise me if they bowed out in a semi-final. - They were in a massive hole only a few weeks ago. Lost to the Dogs a fortnight ago. A win over Freo last week who aren't in great form either and the goldfish declare them invincible again. Its quite funny really. The underdog status has been our friend all year. Let it continue. - Best place to be. Everything to prove. Can't blame the experts, I wouldn't tip us either. Unless Melbourne chokes we will need our best 4 quarter game. - Nobody rated us at the start of the year, so these 'experts' refuse to tip us. Melbourne are flavour of the week again because they beat up on Freo who forgot to show up. - They've beaten up on 2 flaky interstate teams in recent weeks. When challenged by 2 stronger sides in the Cats and Dogs, they've been found wanting. We would have to put in a stinker tomorrow night for the Dees to walk all over us. I think our low possession, high impact, move the ball forward at all costs will trouble their tall backline. Hitting up forwards running into space will be the order of the night. - After that 12 goal GF win they've lost their edge - when stronger sides challenge them the fight just isn't there. - Quietly confident about playing the Leather elbow patch Dr Cordners. - They've lost the exploiveness. In the 3 finals last year they went up another level. In most games they've lost they've been in winning positions and haven't finished sides off. Actually gone the opposite. The team with the ability to explode and turn on the gears is Collingwood - If the boys needed any motivation to get 11 in a row they were just handed it on a platter by steady Eddie - Chris Scott and now Langdon feeling free to critique the Collingwood game plan less than favourably. Arrogant tools - Bit rich coming from that downhill skier. - Not the smartest thing to say about your opposition the day before the game. I hope we smash the *ers now - Game on. Thanks for the inspiration for the boys to get fired up for 11th win Langers. Duck, Duck, Goose. - This is a definite ploy and it shows how worried the Dees are about our little Pie Boys! It's straight out of Murray Weideman's 1958 kitbag!! They wanna get us all riled up so that we'll attack them willy nilly and play into Lever and May's hands with high undisciplined kicks. - HA HA CLASSIC! i bet professor Gawn will give him a stern talking to, "don't fire up the peasants now Edward." - Obviously these teams above us are stressing out over Collingwood coming for them. - Pressure is all on Melbourne this week. I'd be surprised if they didn't come out firing & bring their best game. Despite the rhetoric they know we are shaping to be a contender & will want to snuff that out.

Yes but in the interests of alliteration Buddy the Bear sounds much better.
-
Actually the comments that struck me the most from his interview were; "Our defence is definitely our biggest strength and to be honest we probably pride ourselves on making Friday night games pretty boring to watch for spectators. " I wasn't bored last week! 🤣

What does "all duck, no dinner" mean?
-
When they were handing out stereotypes we certainly got one of the better ones. Let's see would you rather be cheese & wine toff in the MCC who goes to the snow or a petty crook with poor dental hygiene on the dole? Most Collingwood supporters I know are fine, a few relos are Collingwood and my 3 best mates all Collingwood. Makes it worse when we lose to them though I cop it from everywhere.

If it is true surely they ditch Daniher. The bloke acts like he's playing Div4 Ammos
-
Better back it up now. Will look pretty stupid if they let a one trick pony beat them twice in one year - plus potentially have to face them again in September.
-
They can only take as many picks to the draft as list spots they have available can't they? So if they have 4 lists spots available they can only use 4 draft picks. They changed the rules a few years ago to stop teams trading a number 3 pick for example for 5 picks in the 30s.
-
Who gets Elliott? He is probably the most dangerous one of the lot.
-
Who else do they have up forward? Mihocek if he comes in probably gets May or Lever the other one probably gets Ginnivan. Petty gets the resting ruck (Cameron or Cox)?

Eddie Betts opens up on the weird camp
Dr. Gonzo replied to John Crow Batty's topic in Melbourne Demons
Don't think so. -
I agree Harmes was poor against the Dogs but it turns out he was concussed most of that game! Problem is the form of the other mid/forwards any of them would be stiff to be dropped.
-
I'm a big fan of Sparrow I think his aggressiveness and physicality around the contest allow guys like Oliver, Petracca, Viney, Langdon et al to surge the ball forward. Agree on Brayshaw also, would hate to see him moved from the midfield - I want him there for the rest of the year, gives us an extra weapon in there that has been missing.
-
Spaz isn't going anywhere 🤞🤣
-
Sub?
-
I feel like we should end up with a comfortable 5 goal win but not as confident as I was for last week's game. Cautiously optimistic.
-
In this instance it's probably preferable to a Demon in the living room 🤣

In Season - Loading/Periodisation: Put your conjecture here.

I gave up on footy classified a few years ago - unless there's some off field stuff going on which Caro is great at reporting on the rest is garbage.
