BAMF

I was going to bag him out for switching clubs. Then I realised he was probably 10 years old

Yes. We lack pace and outside run. Would be a great pick up. We have no first round pick, neither do the cats.

Found it on YouTube only 3 days ago!

Yes... gawny did follow it up with mentioning that he gives a lot of praise to a lot of players

From the article - This is a tweet from Shae McNamara. Nick Maxwell, You were his brother, for real. He lived with you and you named your dog after him because it’s black. Your silence in choosing your self-preservation with the club is really disappointing.

Your new avatar matches your response perfectly

Man he looks happy.

They didn't even mention it in the interview which I found odd. We know that his foot/toe has been giving him a heap of grief. Why not mention that the problem is over/being managed

Watched it a few times now. I can't get a read if we were taking Holmes or not. If we were, we weren't overly concerned and were happy to take the two we got. Not sure where everyone is getting the Goodwin conspiracy from. He looked fine to me.

This is great

Champion Data are not trying to make a point. Its an odd analogy you are trying to make. I watched enough of Mason Cox's over the last few years to know he isn't elite.

What about Deaklyn Smith?

Yes. But we aren't really talking about a basic mistake are we? It's not like they put Mason Cox's name up there by mistake is it? If the kids point out that the teacher has made a mistake the teacher would wipe the answer out and put the correct answer up. This isn't what Champion Data have done. They have put Mason Cox's name up on the board thinking its the correct answer. We know it isn't. This isn't the first time they have done this. Instead of looking at their formula and recognising that its not right they continue to give the wrong answer.

Yeah. Our strategy of getting a heap of high draft pick kids and just wait for them to develop was shocking.

Jeez... what a bunch of buzz kills some of the posters on here have become. People have been declaring draftees to be champions since I started reading this page back in 2003. Besides the tounge in cheek call that he will win a brownlow, all I think people are doing is getting excited because we have a 194cm endurance machine and we think he might be a player.

Played outside mid as a junior. We then decided that we didnt have enough inside mids so trained him in that role. They must have known he didn't have the tank to do it at the top level? Strange choice otherwise.

Listened to the Gus and Gawn podcast this morning. The hype is real re: fitness. They said he is a freak and Gawn thought it was an achievement to be within 40 meters of him.

Would love to see some youngsters.

Interesting. Our game plan since Goody has come on board has been to move the ball quickly by hand or foot. We traditionally haven't been big on the run and carry which is why I think Hunt was moved from the backline when it was clearly his best position. I really have doubts if Hunt will be anything more than depth from now on. Same with Melksham.

Indeed. He certainly isnt worth the money he was paid but he was very good in 16 and 17. His 2015 was also strong. This is one of those threads where you realise that a number of the louder posters dont watch many non demon games.

It hasn't been reported in this thread. But in other training reports its been mentioned that he has been training with the mids.

1.Tmac and Fritsch rotating forward and wing 2. Hunt and Melksham moved to other positions 3. Ben Brown in. 4. Hannan moved clubs. Thats a huge amount of changes to our forward structure and I [censored] love it.

Indeed. It's great news. It just seems that progress is slow. That might just be my naivety with understanding how long this process takes. I'm sure what we hear is just the tip of the iceberg. A quick search found this from 2015 https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/152260/melbourne-has-re-committed-to-aami-park We moved into aami in 2010 and have 5 year rolling contracts. Our aim was to move out by 2025. Quote "We will be talking to state government about their plans for the precincts."

Wow this is slow progress. So we have been looking for options for the past few years and the progress we have made is to get the state government to 'look' too.

Who usually takes this out these days? It used to be Tmac and ANB. I feel like last year was in groups but Bedford was a standout?
