Both great marks but Farmers was better . Reakon like Farmer , Jurrah will take 1 for all time before he's done tho' .
-
It's tough to run as hard as the game plan demands for the whole year , especially as young as we are .
-
After the pre-season build up rd 1 against Hawthorn was confidence crushing for me .
We we're farcical at times .
The Swans game was best for 4qrs of pure fuzzy warmness but for an adrenalin rush it was the Pies rd 2.

Commentaters are going off their heads . Mark of the Year ... JURRAH !

Clubs supporters such as Essendons that have been fed a steady diet of success are the weakest IMO as following a winning team is easy . They drop off quickly when things aren't going their way , Carltons and Hawthorns are other examples . It's supporters who've been forged with the tough times that I have the most respect for . Ours , Richmonds , St.Kildas , Dogs even Swans.

The link is down ATM so I haven't seen it .
I will say this . Got along way to go before my glass is over half full as I've seen a couple of false dawns that keep me praying that we've got it right this time . As you know its 1 thing to have the blocks in place but we also need a healthy dose of luck when the premiership window truly opens .We'll need our current crop of youngsters to develop to their potential , we'll need 'em to stay injury free , we'll need more inspired drafting and we need to be able to keep them together . I've got the butterflys going as the next 10 years will make us or break us as a club IMO .

Dappa Dan eh ,... Bet I know where your spoon is .

Just another chance for a kid to take the next step .
As respected as Junior is he was a tagger .

A few extra kilos and he'll slam that 1st goal and dish the don't argue in the second clip .

All silver spoon fed private schools boys are soft IMO.

I would suggest a Riewoldt without the courage is his potential.
I would suggest a Riewoldt that is better at ground level and far more reliable when trying to hit a target , Goal or player . Not sure if his contested marking will be as good but I see Riewoldt as the best in the comp in that dept. If he isn't quite as good in the air ... too bad .

B+ - For where we're at . If we had've taken down the Pies it woulda been an A .

Jack Watts 2008 AFL U18 Championships - Incase you haven't seen it .
-
Is he quick/fast...? :/
Size he can gain; but speed?
Saw him chase Jetta from the swans , didn't gain much ground but didn't lose any either .
At the 2008 draft camp he recorded the second fastest time in the 20m sprint for a non-indigenous player of 2.82 seconds.
At 196cms he has speed to burn my freind .

Rest who's injured , give Maric another couple of games and allow Tapscott and Blease a taste of the big league .

I just don't think the Watts bashers recognise a young gun even when he's a 6'6" blonde .
He can read the play , run like a gazelle , deliver lace out passes to forwards and has more ball handling skill than Bate and Miller put together .
One of the previous posters refered to him as soft . He's only 18-19 and in his young mind I'll bet it hasn't really dawned on him that he's as big as he is . Up until his last pre-season he hadn't lifted anything heavier than his schoolbag and then shows up at training to be ragdolled by Chip , Miller , Warnock and co. but when he gets more confidence that will come with both weights and games played he will be one of the premier players in the competion . He won't see himself as a junior member of the club , he'll start looking goalward more often instead of the team orientated dish off , he'll realise that when he goes in hard he won't get killed and opposition sides will struggle to handle his height , speed and power . When it finally all comes together , Watts in full flight will truly be a sight to behold .
I feel that other clubs supporters realise this and so are praying to god he fails , which he won't .

Now the pressure of making finals is off , get back to what this year was about ... Developement .
Rest whoevers injured , get Maric in again and give Tapscott and Blease a taste of the big league .
-
We were doomed as soon as the rain came IMO .
Our game plan is fast and precise movement of the ball , we don't have the mature bodies for a wet slog as yet .
-
The Demons to stamp themselves as a definate finals threat by taking the Hawks apart .
Jurrah to kick 6 without looking like he's trying .
-
Would love to see a Demon win cause Kennet a meltdown .
He's continually kicked us since he's been president .
Go Demons , Unleash hell !
Who will take the reins from Junior..?
in Melbourne Demons

There was talk of the captaincy being written into Davey's last contract .
