Hawthorn would not be happy right now with regards the possible retirement of Croad.

Do not know- as stated as per Hollywood's post on Demonology

what with simon buckleys apparent amazement at the different workloads, and indeed work rates, of north melbourne and Collingw&%$ compared to us, and now this, it makes us sound like a bunch of mollycoddled sissies as per Hollywood's post on the17th December definately highlights why I think the club requires a review however the summation on Wonaeamirri's injury shows that he has had a review which seems continuous. Happy and safe festive season to all.

Thanks for trying however I'm more confused- Why Hawthorn has- 1 more than us.

Can someone please explain to me how our list works.? Noticed Hawthorn have 39 in final senior list and 8 Rookies. Adelaide have-40 Senior/7 rookies,similar to Collingwood. Therefore why do we have only a total of 46. PLEASE EXPLAIN-THANKS http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tab...55/default.aspx

Whilst the Colleewobbles go to Arizona & we to Mansfield- is it very good spot for our fitness re altitude etc..? Or would it be more a bonding session.

Yesterday the team battled the heat to climb Mt Buller- today more hard yards up in Mansfield to finish the year. Taken from Demon HQ

As normal it said SOON

Very good point- I don't think they did

Just informed that our players left today for camp at one of our members properties. Same one as last year.Told that our website will have updates , Foxtel & Herald Sun have been invited. Therefore, we may gain an insight into it

Great thread- interesting to note that 23 players have changed from 2007 list to 2010 list. I believe the current list looks stronger through its versatility & strength.

What a pick up- mentioned on SEN this morning , he was the pick of the draft- OX earlier thought he was a Rd2 pick in the National Draft. Background-Football career He was recruited through the 2003 Rookie Draft (QLD Zone) from Mt Gravatt. He was elevated to the senior list at the end of the 2003 season and made his debut for the Brisbane Lions in Round 10, 2004 against Melbourne. Early in the 2006 season Macdonald injured his Anterior cruciate ligament, which resulted in him missing the remainder of 2006 and the first half of the 2007 season. The 2008 season was considered to be the best career performance for Joel MacDonald.[1] However he was once injured again towards the mid 2008 season which Brisbane Lions missed out on AFL finals action. After the 2009 AFL season the Brisbane Lions delisted Macdonald along with 11 other players. On December 15th, 2009, Macdonald was drafted to Melbourne with pick 1 of the Pre-Season Draft. Therefore before this: Macdonald attended Brisbane Grammar School from 1999-2002 As Bailey coached at Port Adelaide in 2002 & Miller was with us- he would not have been either coached by Bails or team mate of Mills.

Agree totally- needs to really put in- or out the door. Hopefully has been given kicking coaching as seems to lack total confidence in this .If he had of kicked goals instead of points we may not have been talking like this.

Support your points totally- He may even find himself playing with Casey 2nds teaching Gawn how to play- or the other way around.However, sincerely hope he can turn his future around. One thing for sure MFC do not need 5 ruckman- therefore Messon or Johnson will go at end of next season,is my prediction.

Also agree- we will need to look at our tall backline at Casey with Faulks & Silvagni now gone.

Gee - just shows how wrong was I as well as others. Just shows why BP & others went for best picks rather than needs. All recruitors must not havethought much of the Full forward types- Temel not picked up at all-went poorly in State screening & Panos- picked up Rookie 3rd round by Bulldogs. Don't mind having a Temel pie in my face. I'll be following his future. However, very surprised Selection #10 – Jake Melksham-Essendon ,whom was voted best on ground , just ahead of Temel - whom kicked 5 in Grand Final are miles apart. Interesting, how our brains work.

Yes I did- thank you for putting me right- however Joel at first was injury prone as well(knee).

Similar to what St Kilda is doing with Jessel Smith

However it is the way they are expressed.One person does not have to feel persecuted or belittled to have or give an opinion.

As always I accept your points of view- however all that I have said is I hope they DO HAVE A REVIEW & NOW,. I'd prefer them to look at what can be done now so MFC do something about it- rather than RR suggested maybe yearly.It must be destroying his confidence- we may even may have to consider him going to Germany to do what that Geelong footballer had done- think it was Ox's blood injected.

Or at least have a review of the situation
