PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 18th November 2024
monoccular replied to waynewussell's topic in Melbourne Demons
Good low kicks - heard a few other mentions of that too❤️. Can we teach old dogs new tricks? It did look like that in the first few games of 2024 then generally reverted to "kick it long and high to a pack". He does need to either commit 100% or retire now. (In fairness he may have committed already but not be back in town just yet.) -
Tassie Suns - 18 hours a day in summer: 6 in winter 🥶 But back to the new jumper - a red “logo” on a red background? Did they actually pay somebody to do that?

PRESEASON TRAINING: Friday 15th November 2024
monoccular replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Thanks - interesting though who, in Noosa, is in full contact training with him. For me he needs to regain supporters’ trust and display his passion for the club on the field before some of us will be able to love him as we did. So it is really over to CP5 and I suspect he will get there. -

From the photo background it looks like a rebuild is underway 😮 -

One of the things I have been hoping for forever - run and spread. Would that allow us more late draft space? Not sure how it all works these days. Mods - can we please have the facepalm emoji back, please. -

I had entirely forgotten about Spargo. IF FIT I just wonder where he will fit in and who are his positional rivals. -

In this first season whenever he came on to the ground he seemed to bring a huge amount of energy - once he builds a tank he could be an absolute ripper. -

JVR looked quite lackadaisical in that clip - very slow. Needs to quicken up a lot. 🙄🤗 -
Really missing the facepalm emoji

Only Casey watchers could have any idea if he would have been even in consideration for the Max replacement. I suspect he wasn't seeing that he wasn't selected. Hopefully he will be fit and driven to show us all that he wasn't a wasted list space - over to you, Tom

Interesting set of data for someone who seems to get regularly talked down. He did show what he could do offensively in the 2021 but maybe his role has changed and he is being given different challenges. I have faith where others don’t.

DubDee - I agree that he should keep fighting, however I cannot see him as a Nev Jetta type. I wish him well.

The word tragic is used far too easily especially from footy commentators - “tragic that he missed that goal / mark / hand pass”, or “tragic the he missed out on a big game” etc, but Angus’ forced retirement in such circumstances is about the zenith of football tragedies. Hey well, keep well Gus and thanks from us all for the wonderful memories.

Thanks Ben for your great contribution to our premiership 🏆. You pushed through with a battered body, which then totally failed you the past 2 years. Enjoy your well earned retirement.

OMG the poor bugger through no fault of his own (except perhaps courage) broke his clavicle - whilst the fracture itself heals in 6-8 weeks, there is naturally some reticence to take an impact for much longer. Regression like many on our list is a bit way over the top. Lets judge him on how he performs in 2025, after a full pre season.
