Petracca in a rut?
Lots of early picks don't make it Steve. While I don't think he is a wash out he is far from a match winner and IMO I doubt he will be. From my view he is not fit enough seldom sees out a game is usually nacked in the last quarter. I don't think he has yet realised that talent is not all you need at the top level. Lets hope he improves his fitness level for 2019.

Can We Save Our Season?
Spot on RN. With the exception of north in eighth we have not beaten one side in the eight.

Changes v St Kilda
How Does he hurt the opposition Ernest? I don't see you particular talent at AFL level

Can We Save Our Season?
Eighth or if we are lucky seventh, I thought at the end of Feb this year that is what our talent level would supply And I have seen nothing against the better sides to suggest otherwise of the teams in the eight we have beaten one I.e. North who are eighth. We are just not good enough in 2018.

Spot on rjay and I doubt he ever will be a champion however a player in the 50- 100 range will do nicely.

Demons Grand Plan for Yarra Park Training HQ
Trouble is MR it involves using public space and cutting down trees. For those two reasons alone I seriously doubt it will fly. Sadly we will have to be happy with a location outside of Yarra park and the MCG. As for a social club does more than a few members care? The days of social clubs being big money spinners are gone. Just win games and play in GF's regularly over the next decade that is what is required not a training ground next to the MCG.

Changes v St Kilda
He does not hurt the opposition D11. I don't see a major skill, can you tell me what it is please?

Changes v St Kilda
Stretch is a symptom of our problems Ernest. He is a VFL talented player who cannot cut it at the higher level.

Can We Save Our Season?
On reflection beating WCE was no big deal they only made the eight because of our inabilities in the last week and Adelaide have since shown they are average. I don't think we have improved against the better teams, we need to beat Geelong in a few weeks time any thing less and you can book holidays in September.

Spot on bobby I think it is a little better at our bottom 4-5 however same problem and yes it is definitely over rated. Petracca is a good example not enough stamina at this point to be a top 100 player.

I think you are confusing "want" with "don't have the ability" SF. We don't yet have a list good enough to challenge the top six sides.

Casey Demons v Coburg - VFL Round 12
Spot on Mr. Leg. IMO our last four that make up the 22 most weeks are not good enough, against the bottom sides they play ok but are found wanting every time we play a top eight side. Changes are need again at the end of 2018 as this list wont make a GF let alone win one.

Petracca in a rut?
I saw him at training back in mid May and I was disappointed. He seems to lack stamina and looked lazy in all the running drills. Was consistently last of every group. Whatever the reason he is currently not in the best 100 players in the competition. A week at Casey is required to focus his mind on where he is at in June 2018

Take your pick LDC. I firmly believe we will win a GF before the Jolimont thing happens. That is my priority.
