I was one that wanted them dropped, Watts anyway. My reasoning was based on on history though. Since the Daniher days we have had obviously talented players turning up to games giving 90, not 100%, and his been tolerated. This tolerance (call it perseverance) did not yield a positive reslut as the players in question did not mend their wicked ways. It appears now, however, that when Roos tolerates/perseveres with a player he does something different off the track than what the last 3 coaches have been doing - whatever it is, it is working.

You have to give Roosy the credit, seems to just have a gift for getting the best out of players

Demonland Player of the Year - Round 9
Curry & Beer replied to Whispering_Jack's topic in Melbourne Demons
i dont think ive ever seen such tight consensus on who the best 6 were -
That's correct.. we only juuuuuust lost last week for not being quite good enough.. today we were luckier than the dogs were last week
-
I didn't say we haven't improved (we obviously have) nor did I mention any other matches. I am discussing today's match. Keep it real.

snort, then bark

8 more scoring shots, 9 more inside50s.. we had 4 goals go bouncing through.. we got lucky
-
how's this - if you take out the WCE game our percentage is 90% which would put us 12th on the ladder right now can you believe we got done by 10 goals or more on 12 occasions last year

some peeps are getting a bit carried away we were very, very lucky to win today and our opponent wasn't much chop at all a lot of our blokes did not have a great day obviously I'm rapt we still got up and it's another 4 points but sheesh we didn't climb everest today, let's keep it in our pants shall we and never forget the false dawn of 2010/11 ok had to say it.. as you were

GWS player arrested on a raft of charges for assault
Curry & Beer replied to jnrmac's topic in Melbourne Demons
we just don't know though, the whole thing could be rubbish and he was acting in self-defence or whatever, if that were me in that position i'd be looking to make a statement about my good name by appealing also or he's a scumbag and refuses to take responsibility for it -

Match Preview and Team Selection - Round 9
Curry & Beer replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
boo -
Whenever a new player debuts (PIGDOG!) you have this excitement that you might see something extraordinary .. unfortunately now with the sub rule, when a player debuts they are usually the sub, which I assume Riley will be today. Oh well, let's hope for an extraordinary 1.5 quarters. still paying 5.00 for a win, I just don't get that at all.. should be 2.50 or something like that

Match Preview and Team Selection - Round 9
Curry & Beer replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I think it was Sam Newman (dolt that he is) said that these 'emotional occasions' have an impact for about the first minute of the game and then it is business as usual -
yep. Jamar, debuted 2003 and did nothing until 2010.. played 73 games in those first seven seasons
