Don't know that he's a good option, but he might be a better option than Martin, who seems to be going backwards.

Can we finish top 4 this year
Winners at last replied to demonsflag555657's topic in Melbourne Demons
Top 4? Demons, certainties for 2010 flag!!I'm putting my house on it. -
Hey, call me Captain Obvious, but better to use public transport. If you need to drive some of the way, park near a train or tram line & get a train/tram the last part. Way quicker and cheaper.

She sounds like a fantastic lady. I know another fanatical female demon supporter. I don't know if she reads this forum, but her name is Penny. She goes to every Victorian match and some interstate ones with her son and has contributed very significantly to the club. Unfortunately she hasn't been able to convert her Collingwood supporting husband.

Umpires subconsciously favouring?
Winners at last replied to Summer Blease's topic in Melbourne Demons
I have no doubt that we got a good deal from the umps yesterday. I also have no doubt it was because of the crowd noise. We are normally heavily outnumbered by opposition supporters, and so correspondingly get a bad deal in most of those games. -
I was at the 2007 Demons/North match setting near a totally obnoxious female North supporter. So glad when demons hit the lead (shut the cow up) but very sad with outcome. I think Swallow kicked the winning goal. I also remember years ago a similar match when Clarkson kicked a winning goal for North either close to or after the siren. As for the 2000 GF. I was there. That was enough. I've never watched a reply. And never will.

How did you Spend Grand Final Day??
Winners at last replied to Sir Why You Little's topic in Melbourne Demons
________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________ Hi Torpedo, I was on level 4, about half way back on the wing. Seats were fine. The entire front half of level 4 was reserved (via the ballet) and we were in the first row of the unreserved (walkup) seats. There were also seats available when we entered the ground on level 1, but level 2 seats went really quickly. When I came back to the ground at 2 pm. there were no seats left, only standing. -
How did you Spend Grand Final Day??
Winners at last replied to Sir Why You Little's topic in Melbourne Demons
Queued up at MCG from 6 a.m. (alarm went off at 5 a.m.). Gates opened at 8 a.m. Got seats, then to Brunnettis in Carlton for breakfast, home by 10 a.m. Had a nice nap, then back to the ground by 2 p.m. Had a quick beer at the Bullring bar, then watched the fantastic match. Then went to friend's place for dinner, then home, then had to pick up 16 y.o. son, home by 2 a.m. Long, but fantastic day!! Might not have thought so if the match had been a fizzer. -

Demonland Player of the Year - Round 20
Winners at last replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Is it just me, or does Jonesy repeatedly make skill errors? He gets the ball really well, but doesn't do himself (or his teammates) with his disposal or tendency to hang onto the ball til he gets caught. My 11 y.o. daughter made the observation that he always make mistakes. I though Davey was clearly BOG. Bater and Jurrah also good. Also worried about McLean. Very slow. And when he goes to ground, takes ages to get up and get back in the game. MacDonald was also ok, but i think he should call it a day at the end of the season. Robbo, great guy and was a great player, but he too should call it a day. He doesn't look fit. Frawley was good, Morton OK, Petterd will be a player, Dunn will keep his place and even PJ was ok yesterday. -
Apart from his other attributes, he has a real football brain. In the last qtr (I think) Bater was running in towards goal from the angle. I think he was considering handing it off to Liam, but Liam pointed towards goal to tell him to keep going. The over the head goal while sitting of the ground was Jakovich like.
-
I agree with Dale Kerrigan (or whatever the guy's name is) regarding the supposed trade value of the players always mentioned on this site. Players like Bruce, Robbo, Bartram, Newton, Johnson. Bell et al have no trade value. McLean & Jones would have some trade value, but late second round at best. Miller may have limited value. Petterd may have some value, but I'd hate to see him leave.
-
He's always done well in matches against Demons. Although his opponent was often Nicho. Should have a good career in the media, seems a great bloke with a good personality. Not a meathead like so many others, e.g. Taylor or boring e.g. Reiwoldt.

I don't understand why so many posters on this site refer to McLean as Brock. Bruce, MacDonald et all are all referred to by their surnames. Others by their nicknames, e.g. Robbo. It seems to be trend with players with dorky Christian names. The classic case of this was Gehrig, who was often referred to as Fraser.

I couldn't get to the match yesterday. Did Tredrea give one of his famous bows?

My 3 word player analysis V Port Flower
Winners at last replied to joeboy's topic in Melbourne Demons
Agreed that Moloney played well, but a coupla poor handballs from him were really damaging. One landed at a teammate's feet and the other missed the target. Pretty sure the first cost a goal. Minor point, but to get to next level (which I think he can), precise disposal required. -
Thanks for your efforts over the years Wheaters, but time to move on.
