Deefolt

apparently most of the working dog teams are hardcore dees fans, so much so that i heard a rumour that they did some meetings at dees functions, that is where a few of them met. RoB sitches wife is also a hardcore dee, the woman who used to be on neighbours, jane kennedy i think her name is

wandsworth was mentioned by cam schwab i think it was on twitter

dont the de-listees get delisted at around december or at least after trade week?

warnock is signed for this year and next year... so end of 2011, Cam Schwab confirmed this on the podcast thing he was doing a while ago.

i thought this was a brought up thread from a while ago when i saw the title.

Please tell me OP that you are joking and just wanted to see a reaction. As he has signed a 2 year contract I doubt Melbourne would want to trade him anyway

Just having a look at the ladder last night our wins this year have been against teams in positions (as of now):

15th x 2, 14th, 13th x 2, 12th, 10th, 5th and a draw against the Top side.

This needs to be taken into account I believe when rating how we've gone this year.

also should be taken into account the very close games against 4th position and 1st positiong earlier on in the season.

Also things dont necessarily mean everything now, when we beat brisbane they didnt have the injuries they do now. That same side beat the first place side. Think must be taken from when we beat them imo not right now.

i havent seen it and i just watch foxtel... pretty much, is it just on the sports channels?

that picture is on the afl website

Miller not named for this weeks clash.... off to Gold Coast me thinks!

i found that weird too, with the 23rd player last week and now not even on this emergencies.. odd

jones wont go as some have said he obsessed with the melbourne footy club going by his tweets lol

As reported by KC from Casey in the Casey thread... Grimes was on the bench for all of the 2nd quarter after trainers worked on his hamstrings.

He is not ok...

KC from casey also stated he doesnt know one way or the other, could be a precaution

He is ok.

as in he is up and running again or an ok player?

best article I have ever read from Jake Niall, really makes you feel about the club.

This is easily the best sponsorship (media wise) for the dees

I'm now sick of the "get into the gym" talk regarding Cale.

If he's like me, he can do all the gym work in the world and eat everything possible but will struggle to put on weight. It's called a "hard gainer" or, if to be more precise, having a fast metabolism. It's something out of his control. I understand his position!

There was a twitter talk between the boys (exageration or not) that seems to assume cale should eat a hell of a lot more, the big boys beamer, sylvia etc apparently eat shite loads more then morton. Nothing to do with body me thinks

There's been suggested that Hodge may go back to half back to help out, with Guerra poss out. They may lack decent ball use out of defence.

Interesting, IMO we matchup well against the old Hawk boys.

There goes that theory Guerra appealed and won

I'd give the job to Bruce. He's proven to be the best run with player we have at the moment. Probably the best "footy smarts" for the role on Hodge, might just be a little on the short side. Definitely start with Bruce though

WOOO someone who agrees with me, I think Bruce can do it as well. Hodge isnt THAT quick so brucey should be able to keep up with him

Just imagine the scenes... :D

Without Moloney, however, Hawthorn's midfield will teach our kiddies a lesson (again).

How? Sydney taught their whole team a listen, who we taught a listen, so in theory...

davey seems to play better also when he has forward targets, as he did at the start of the year and as soon as jurrah came back (on that noticed we starting winning when jurrah came back :D )

No jeff never gets credit from me.. But it was his original comment that got Stynesy fired up to run for Prez, as he wanted his kids to be able to barrack for melbourne

Nooo it was the AFL basically saying our club is f%#@ed and needs to do something because the name Melbourne is not going to save us.

am i the only one who wants to see bruce on hodge, bruce is decent at shutting down players.

you prefer maric to miller hmmmmm

its fair enough, maric apparently didnt play the most awesome game

yes, and all those players you've mentioned are better now than they were then. Maloney isn't in and never has been in the same league. Re best 22 I stated a la Julia, moving foward. Don't care bout this year, next year or the one after. Near 50 years of mediocrity or worse. Hope we're building towards a winning a premiership not a repeat of 2000.

Um okay Tom Lonergon and Mark Blake can get a side but moloney or jones not good enough... wtf?

3:15 - Half-time and Geelong are in complete control. Start wondering if the rumours about Gary Ablett looking for a house in Melbourne, suggest that he may be interested in coming to the Demons!

that is my favourite quote for a while

we can still beat hawks to the punch we just REALLLY need kangas to freaking stop winning

I cannot believe that some person/organisation has been paid money to come up with such a bland and souless logo. It does not grab my 50 plus years demon heartstrings. A football- how original. A southern cross- great if we were miners. A trident - relevant if King Neptune is a major sponsor. It's too much - less is always more. Thia is typical agency cr--.

They have already mentioned that this is not the logo and they are bringing back a new demon soooo....
