Tom Cutler
What is his injury issue? Someone suggested a foot - that would definitely put me off in a big way. Are you a Kiwi, or is there more to this up in Brisvegas?

2020 Assistant Coach Prospects: The Next Batch
Scarlett was a top grade beckman, but what is his coaching pedigree? Just being a top player doesn't make one a top coach - Voss, Hird, and even over his first few years, Buckley spring to mind: and, conversely, I don't remember Clarkson as being a top player but his coaching career has been "pretty reasonable". Maybe that is the real problem - 1,2,3,4 quarters in a game, not just 1,2,3, or 1,2, or 1, or 0 !

Gun target - Key Forward recruit?
Do we actually have anyone at the club capable of developing anyone as a KPP forward? Someone like Neita or Ox? What are they doing these days?

Joe Daniher
Too injury prone - not interested. Let's go for Jamie Elliott. !

Farewell Sam Frost
Hogan. Frawley. Howe. Frosty 2019 would certainly be an upgrade on Hibberd 2019. Hopefully Hibberd can get back to his 2018 form.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
I must admit to never watching GW$ much - some very mixed reactions on this site. ( I watched him with interest at the GF and didn't gain a lot ... but then he was far from Robinson Crusoe that day). Question, addressed please only to those who are positive about Adam: where do you see him fitting into our jigsaw puzzle? What position? What assets?

Gun target - Key Forward recruit?
.... and even then, only part time. I agree .... but then Gil just thrives on flawed systems. Look at his goal review system just for starters. He would fit in well with our overall, and in particular forward game plan then. ?

Jamie Elliott
Right downwind of Mr Burnsโ state of the art nuclear plant โข๏ธ ??? Homer will become their #1 fan.

DEBUNKED: Oliver shoulder surgery
Mmm. Last time i shot someone on the golf course I forgot to check his age. Looked more like 80 though.

Our Indigenous Recruiting
Interesting, after that performance.
- Trac should be our โdustyโ

Farewell Sam Frost
Martin Pike .... was that 3rd and 4th?

Grand Final Sprint 2019
.... and still he came second! Imagine had he run in a straight line ? That crook isnโt headless ?

Goal Kicking Coach
The club should have had the decency to acknowledge that but for the astute observers here at Demonland, nobody at the club would have realised that we even needed such help ?
-
Who bares the most blame?
Yes of course we have missed him (Hogan), but had Tom had an uninterrupted and healthy season he would have been missed far less. And of course he wasnโt there at the business end of 2018 either.
-
Who bares the most blame?
I agree generally with your comments and especially regards to putting. However there are exceptions - Ben Brown and the Dive Bomber are two who spring to mind.

Toby Greene's Dad
6 months + mandatory jail time in Victoria means very little. Rarely if ever imposed.

No [censored] policy
Liam was from a quite unique background and it was only when he was unfortunately injured and returned to his dysfunctional community that he โwent astrayโ. One can only speculate what he could have achieved without that happening - interestingly Sean Charles suffered a very similar problem when he had a wrist injury, though not as serious of course as criminal proceedings and jail. (And of course $cully and Trengove are far more upstanding fine gentlemanly chaps than Mr ?. )

Petracca Ready to Take Next Step
So do you think we should trade every player who has any faults or limitations? I think we all agree that CP5 needs to work on endurance and set shot goal kicking - so rather than trade him, how about we encourage and help him address these limitations?

Willie Rioli Suspended for 2 years
The players have the law lid out to them very clearly at induction. Perhaps certain clubs confuse their players about what they take and when? But these are professional athletes and do know better - some just try to get away with things. Very clear indeed - he substituted a specimen .... QED! Maybe they do - according to their rules but not necessarily WADA ASADA.

I suspect that most here would prefer deeds to words from our club.

Grand Final 2019
GW$ did a pretty good imitation today, IMO And how many seasons has Hardwick had before proving himself to be a genius? In 2016 the microwaves were warmed up at Punt Road and there were calls for his blood. Dirts - never fear. Shocking and Gillon will no doubt come up with some more grippingly great rule changes off season to make the brand more appealing.

Casey Best & Fairest 2019
Donโt know much about him - what is his position and is he a prospect?
-
Grand Final Sprint 2019
I was wondering if he ran straight or did some evasive manoeuvres?
