  1. The one guarantee in football and picks there is no guarantees in football they turn out like you hope, god knows we have had plenty of them.

    McVee should be used as an outside player like the dacios brothers a link up player as for Riv fair point, but has a tendency to rush with his decision making, either way we need outside speed.

    Well said, but McVee has the brains, the discipline is a teachable thing but I don't see that as a problem in him as for the hard ball I don't see that in the Dacios boys, he has also played midfield as a junior, he is skilled player, when people were calling Petty to go forward they said he's only a backman now, oh it hurt our chances, Howe was a forward with us where did he end up playing with us, went to the pies as a forward and where has he ended up. Sometimes it's better to try something than nothing at all we tend to put people in boxes and not try anything what's the harm? Trying to understand your last point about being away from the family.

    Well need a quick skilled type midfielder we are a one paced midfield...mind you i would give McVee a crack in there.
  9. I doubt that I will agree with you on football matters but on this 100%, well done for bringing to the forefront of peoples minds but at least more men are getting tested every year.
  10. I think going after these three players the club might believe it's no use picking another forward line player or they believe by the time they have their pick none will be available, we also need a quick sized midfielder as we are one paced and need that quickness around the ground. I will interested to see how Langdon and Hunter play their role, both players played boundary side more often than not, which made it hard to become that link type player around the ground for using the corridor for players through the corridor. Regarding you are right about JVR at his age he just needs help not being the main object he just needs to have the 2nd or 3rd defender and stop the 2 on 1 scenarios on him to allow him some more freedom to develop.
  11. Must admit don't know much about McAdam or Fullarton and have only seen the out takes, but but both seem to be one grab players which is a plus, Fullarton might be a better option for Max to work with and as for Billings if fit will be a bonus would imagine Chandler or Spargo will miss out for him.

    Rubbish answer, we needed outside speed in the midfield all year and he wasn't used for long periods in games and there is a reason for that he's not built for it take the pace aspect out of it he's not a contested footballer, not a contested mark type and not a high disposal footballer he is an impact player who can turn a quarter but can drift out of the game just as quick. If Goodwin really believed that Kossie could play midfield in every game he would have and he didn't so that must tell you something but I guess not.
  13. demon3165 replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Well that's your opinion fair enough but if as you say he has the tank how come Goodwin didn't play him in the midfield during the season in long game time role?
  14. demon3165 replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Have to disagree on Kossie he is not a midfielder nor will he ever be one it's fine for short bursts but he does not have the Tank to do it all day he's made for a speed type impact player, don't you think Goodwin would have done it last year if was a midfielder type. Try McVee into the midfield as we are one paced in there, Turner to the back flank.
  15. Cranbourne Amish country Jesus, it's Crimebourne way past that.
  16. It's not a case of just building up it is more about how to learn the forward craft at this level that's why we need to a person who knows about it for the younger players before they get into bad habits.
  17. Gee I wonder where SEN got that from....lol
  18. Fritta yes JVR no don't know much about the new recruit, if the forward line can function as it should you can play both Melk won't be there and I hope kossie watch Hill, Elliot and Greene play the small man like in 21 it's a bonus.
  19. Ok please explain why you cannot play both?
  20. demon3165 replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Would give McVee a go in the midfield myself, pace, good skills and good temperament.
  21. demon3165 replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    How true, people wanted Tmac in and what happed nothing he's cooked, the staggering part of the finals and I nearly fell over was Goodwin when asked why Josh was not used in the final was Tmac brought the ball to the ground, well that was going to happen anyway because of way the delivery of the ball into the forward line. Would have been better to have given Josh a crack anything could have happened as Tmac did nothing that is poor coaching imo when the game needed to be won.

    Fritsch only on dry dry days, no good in the wet because it makes his hair a mess.....
  23. demon3165 replied to Random Task's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    No forward line issue not sure what games you have been watching but it was the reason we were bundled out in straight sets two years in a row, and the struggles throughout the year with it....
