2 HTB and one incorrect disposal - "play on". WTF?
-
I haven't watched much footy this season - is Gary Lyon in any official way connected to the club? He seems to barrack for the opposition every time.
-
I have only watched the last quarter but haven’t seen so many fumbles and unforced errors since ...... 2017 Melbourne v Carlton or GCS. What a dreadful game to watch.

Exactly - if we don't win this then we are a long way off.

Tom Lynch Incident (incl. Dimma vs The Ox)
monoccular replied to buck_nekkid's topic in Melbourne Demons
Dimma's old teammate, the original Dive Bomber Lloyd, set a standard that has yet to be equalled IMO. -
Great talent, but it looks like he doesn't really know what he wants, and whether he wants to commit to any club. IMO it would be a great risk to take him back, but all would depend on price and list space. And we would definitely require a full psychological assessment.

COVID Breaches by Clubs Could Derail Season
monoccular replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I am sure I remember early on in this COVID season planning there was discussion that any breaches (by players, officials or WAGS) would result in immediate end of season for the offenders, however as some of the higher profile breaches involved Collingwood and Richmond high profile individuals, nothing meaningful has happened. Now would it be different for example if ANB had committed a breach (of course before he was suspended)? -

...and who know just what drugs they (or at least some of them) may have been on that day? -

.and we may have won the 1963 flag as well. You of course mean thug Hardwick. -
Even then, it looked as if most of the damage was done when his head hit the ground.

Tom Lynch Incident (incl. Dimma vs The Ox)
monoccular replied to buck_nekkid's topic in Melbourne Demons
I am 100% sure that the next time a Demon does anything like that it will be a suspension. Didn't Hawkins get off yet again just a few weeks ago? And didn't Cuddington get off a few more times after that? Did he have the goat photos of Christian? Exactly - Burgiyne's two slam tackles were far more aggressive than ANB - the concussion there was opurely accidental. The ridiculous push and shove before the bounce would stop very quickly if frees were given (though I know which one would be picked out in a MFC game). -

Too true - any wonder some may suggest that the MRP and the AFL are pits of corruption. -
What they're saying down at Lulie Street
monoccular replied to Queanbeyan Demon's topic in Melbourne Demons
But the filf fans didn't know what a boulevard is. Street is much easier for them to say and even try to spell. fully human? Not even partially on that forum. -
And as I remember much the same applies to Hawkins.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
monoccular replied to What's topic in Melbourne Demons
On the performance vs Colonwood IMO he should stay in and TMcD miss out. Tom’s best is / was better than Preuss’ best but that is not right now. As I mentioned in another thread, if Tom’s problem is something that would it could well recover with a long lay off, with a good chance of returning to his 2018 output, then stop and get in with it now. And of course if MG11 ain’t anything better than 99.9% recovered then leave things as they are. -
Put him on ice now and work on getting his foot and body back into the super athlete he was in 2018.
-
Waiting for Christian to dream up a new suspendable offence “attacking the ball with reckless aggression” - - 6 weeks. ?
-
Maybe - but all those who called for young Jackson to be "managed" last week maybe they are managing Rivers.
-
And the Adelaide game has shown us that whacking someone incessantly behind the play is ok!
-
Gawn was Gawn already. Do you mean Jackson our, Preuss in? Preuss’ big opportunity to apply physical pressure Gradp the opportunity big fella
-
Ain’t hindsight great?
-
Remind me - what he his injury been? If ever he was needed, this is it. Why else was he recruited? Do or die Braydon.
-
FFS leave Weed where he does his best work. IF they ruck Weed after it becoming bleedingly obvious that it is not his role then they have lost me for all time.
