2012 Player Review - # 28 Joel Macdonald
Good Times Grimes replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Macdonald isn't a player blessed with great skills or ability to read the play, but he gives everything he's got and more whenever he's on the field. He's the type of player that we need to set an example for the younger ones coming through. I don't think he'll be part of our next premiership team, but I think that at the moment he's an important player for us. -
MFC Starting Lineup Round 1, 2013

One thing that Howe definitely isn't lacking is confidence -

I believe that they can. They can't take uncontracted players who are not free agents though e.g. they can take Dunn but they can't take Sellar. -
I don't think Tynan should have been dropped after his r1 performance, either. He's tough as nails and I hope to see him pushing for senior selection early in 2013.

At the risk of derailing the thread, I think it's safe to conclude (based on his Republican National Convention Speech) that Clint Eastwood doesn't think about much anymore.

MFC Starting Lineup Round 1, 2013
Good Times Grimes replied to ashdemons22's topic in Melbourne Demons
I'm going to wait until our final list lodgement to do this. We don't know about players like Rivers, Dunn, Dawes, Wines, Pederson, Ray etc. It could look a lot different. -
If Tippett went into the draft things would become very interesting. Would we take him if he's available at pick 4? Would he already be gone by then? I'd put money on it that he wouldn't slide down to Sydney's first pick.

Who do you want us to draft at Pick 4?
Good Times Grimes replied to MadAsHell's topic in Melbourne Demons
I voted Toumpas, but he won't be available. After him I want Wines, O'Rourke and Grundy (in that order). -
I can't wait until they feature Isaac Weetra.

One time a policeman pulled Jack Viney over. The policeman was lucky enough to leave with a warning.

I give you a 0% chance of Jamar being moved on at this trade period. I'm not saying that we definitely won't pick Grundy if he's available (which I don't think he will be), but Jamar will be a Demon in 2013.

Viney Sr. -
Jamar just signed a 3 year deal. He isn't going anywhere, no matter how much you want Grundy.

That was under Prendergast. Things have changed I hope.

Okay so put Sellar in the backline. But what about shifting Watts/Garland/McDonald forward to take the pressure off Clark? Or do you think that we should keep them all in the back half as well? I've watched some footage of Pedersen (I realized I've been spelling his name incorrectly up until now) and he looks pretty good, but I don't want to spend pick 20 on him. Pretty much the only issue that I would have with getting one of Pedersen/Dawes/Gumbleton would be spending pick 20. I'm fine with packaging a player+later pick for one of them, but I think we need to try our luck at drafting a good midfielder. -

Good Times Grimes replied to Tolstoys Nudge's topic in Melbourne Demons
If you're playing Sellar as the second tall in the backline, what would you do with McDonald/Garland/Watts? One of them could be moved up to FF or CHF (after all, they were all drafted as forwards), but if you were going to do that is there any need for Pederson/Dawes/Gumbleton at all? If we're going to get one of Pederson/Dawes/Gumbleton, they will just be a place-holder until Hogan is ready. I don't think we're going to be competing for a finals spot in 2013, so I think it's a better investment to hang on to pick 20 and use it on the best available player. If we can snag Pederson with our third rounder I'm all for it, but otherwise I'm happy with Sellar. -
It's also important to be mindful of giving GWS the first four picks in the draft. They're going to be a powerhouse as it is, no need to gift them any more high draft picks. Hang on to pick 4 and use it on the best available mid, that's what we need. Simple.

That is a role that Sellar is more than capable of filling, though. I'm all for getting Pederson OR Dawes at the right price, but not both. -
Just buy 2 extra guernseys. Problem solved.
