  1. I think we have already got more value from him than the Weid.
  2. I doubt any club sees him as a first rounder. Best you could hope for is an early second round. If your the club and genuinely thought he was worth a first rounder he would be signed back up by now.
  3. How interested are North and Gold Coast? Does he want to go to clubs who are going to lose way more games than they win in the next few years? Things we know nothing about. His major flaw is he does not hold marks. I watched him at Werribee which I think was the seconds last game. He played up the ground, forward and ruck. He played well and I think kicked 3 goals. I took the binoculars so watched him all over the ground. Even when marking on his own he juggled most of his marks. After a number of years with a lot of senior games he just looks to be a VFL level talent which is a shame. In the seniors you get way more close attention he will never be KPF who takes contested marks in the forward line. His best position is IMO the same role that Jackson plays. You cannot have two of those types in the same team. The FD seems to favour Jackson so barring injury he will probably see out this year at Casey. Which is good for me when I go because he is valuable player at that level and I enjoy watch him. If he wants / needs a change of scenery then let him go for the best we can get.
  4. A bloke called Hogan!!!!!!!

    Is this so we can get money from the cancelled AS game?

    I am reminded of that joke. When the yanks invaded Iraq. It is a pity our oil is under their sand.

    Yep we cannot go whatever the locations and unless you have pay tv cannot watch . So Bris / melb makes little difference.

    Picket it is more than likely a problem with state governments than the AFL.

    I am no fan of the AFL but they are having to deal with multiple state governments and we have seen over the last 2 years how difficult that is with just one. Someone in QLD is probably reading the tea leaves.

    Spot on , good teams win no matter where they play the not so good don't because they don't win as often not matter the locations.

    I wonder if the MFC is any wiser than us as to where this game will be played?

    Sign of the times but I would be surprised if they were DJ.

    I think if you are a demon fanatic which means just about everyone on here you are masochistic by the very nature of being a demon fanatic. After 56 years my optimism is getting a little worn.
  17. Good question TU. I think we need them this week.
  18. Is our game likely to be televised ?

    No need to be sorry that is your opinion. Because we did not get frees does not automatically mean the ones to the dogs weren't there. I don't believe the umpiring cost us the game.
  20. I did say we won't beat them. Where is that?
  21. old dee replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    On that basis it is the bag. Now I won't celebrate on GF day I promise.
  22. Not if you support the Dogs UH. They probably think it is just right.

    That is an often reprise by absolute optimists Smokey. It blinds them to problems.
  24. old dee replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    That would reduce the member numbers in 2022 Binman. I promise you if we win the GF I will not issue one word of joy. I will sulk at home on my own.
