Return to Glory

My immediate reaction is that Collingwood is playing tricky buggers.

This may be more suited to the 'differing opinions' thread - but you know what JR, this is what Demonland needs - a little self deprecation. Everyone's become a [censored] expert on this site. We should have a confession thread. I'll start: I too thought Toumpas would be good. I thought Lucas Cook would be part of the answer to our forward line problems and I was staggered Dom Barry wasn't at least a poor man's Cyril Rioli. I am now thinking Curnow could be fools gold and Weideman may be the next Pavlich. Go Dees.

Parish and Weideman would be a pretty strong get for mine. My preference is Weideman over Curnow if both were available as I do have a concern that the latter could be a jack of all trades, master of none. I'm generally wrong.

Spot on summation ProDee. And he does it on a regular basis. There may well be blokes with 'higher ceilings' as the experts term it, but right now we need blokes who can get to the contest quickly, time and time again.

You weren't the only one initially excited about Jimmy WJ. I'm still a little gutted that he didn't make it with us. This bloke really hunts the ball though...reckon he's a different type of cat.

Got to admit that I've done a 180 with Jake Melksham. I didn't want him at the club initially but I'm looking forward to seeing him run around and making himself a pest. And if he can play consistently like he did in 2013 we would have done well. Even if he has just short spells in the midfield (I'm assuming he will), it offers a chop out for others.

So what you're saying is that you rate Clayton Oliver?

Jack's a lover.

I suspect you make way too much sense to post on Demonland GCDee.

His disposal has been iffy at times and he's gone missing as well. But as you say, before the Dank he was looking the goods.

As someone mentioned earlier, it's a punt. And if he fires four years is a masterstroke. Of course, there is the opposite.

Don't worry. I'm sure Robbo can write mindless articles on our behalf if we put him on our payroll.

Who knows Pro Dee.

Could Howe possibly get us this? Probably not but, by all reports, next year has a number of promising mids.

Yeah, spot on willmoy. It took me awhile to get my head around drafting him but there's no doubt he can add to the list, particularly if he can recapture his 2013 form. Bernie and Crossy showed that it's certainly possible.

Can't wait nut job.

Honestly, what is wrong with you? You do know that they'll be opinions that differ from yours and I reckon you have used both of the highlighted phrases on several occasions in respect to different posters. You don't have to bust a gut to attack, attack, attack. The rare posts where you don't attack the man have been worth reading. The other stuff is tiresome dribble.

Ta rpfc. I thought that was how it worked. So basically, we need to get the deal done beforehand.

Would we get him there? I can't even remember how it works.

Short reply to a lengthy post STMJ, but I'm coming around to the value of Melksham as depth. It probably comes back to what ludicrous offer Essendon requires and I could see the trade being stalled because of it.

Melbourne indicating they would have paid over the odds for Dangerfield (whether it be true or not...maybe a ploy) surely encourages Adelaide to play hardball with Geelong. It puts Adelaide in the mindset of 'let's not get ripped off here'.

Yes and Plugger wants to make the move to Sydney.

The trouble with your posts is that they lose all credibility when you include terms such as ' you're a spud, loudmouth, hero'. I'm not saying you are but it makes you come across as a bit of a [censored].

'How to win friends and influence people'

Surely not. I blame Jack for the GEC.
