    Judging by last week, that's a failed experiment. ...and to be honest a dumb idea. McEvoy is a liability at CHB. Won't be long before he is back in the ruck full time.

    Losing interest in the footy.... Lets see if I can find some music on Youtube. ...back in a minute. Ah yes, love Gabriel and at his peak on this tour...just love the sound of his voice and what about the band. They look like they are having so much fun...it's infectious.
  4. ...and maybe they could do an interview for 7 sport about the tennis to finish it off.
  5. Fishing , Tennis, Surfing & Gold... I don't see going to a party or doing an interview on the list.

    One things for sure. If Goodwin goes we won't be able to chance another rookie coach like Yze. Brad Scott, Ross Lyon, make a play for Chris Scott or even Clarkson.
  7. I hope you're right but all I've seen so far points to another Frost...

    Smith is even worse in the forward half. Has no idea...

    'Dazz', if we don't want to play 3 talls then T Mac should be the one to go. He needs an absolute rocket. ...but it may not work, that good season forward equates to his good season back. We've never seen it again. I hope we do, we need it.
  10. Why? He proved yet again he is a poor decision maker & not up to the hype. It seems his only role is to try and take the mark of this century to keep it in the family. Frost II.
  11. Apart from the barrel, hasn't wasted a possession...
  12. Not knocking your post 'Blind'...it just states the facts. It's how 'Kent' is interpreting them. Have a great day...please. We all need it.

    It's actually not a bad idea for a young tall to start back and learn the craft. Not sure it's going to happen. ...but with his leap, pace, smarts and ball use he would be a natural.
  14. We haven't even played a game yet with the current coaching structure and you're already potting it. All clubs had to move on assistants and then make decisions as to how they would use their resources. We did have an assigned forwards coach by the way. Was it his fault, the mids coach or Goody that we kept bombing the ball in.

    I didn't like it 'John', the only interest was getting the draw because neither side deserved 4 points. To be honest they didn't deserve 2 points. It was a yawn fest of defensive football with poor skills to match. You would have thought they were playing in a bog the way the last Q panned out. Every player in the same part of the ground and no one to kick to when they got the ball.

    Midfield too small and too slow. The master coach went in with a tall defence and got cut up by their medium/small forwards. McEvoy isn't a CHB... On the good bloke, champion of the game, ball player, didn't know he got rid of the ball rule he will get $1,500. If it was Harmes or another of ours , he would get at least a week. Probably 2.

    This game is the first one I've enjoyed this season... There have been the skill errors you would expect with the lack of prep but they are prepared to play footy. Last night was an abomination.

    Don't bother lads...ANB has been named.
  19. rjay replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Wouldn't be surprised to see Oscar in and Harmes back up the ground... ...but ANB has just been named in the 22.

    Do you really think that? I would't but interested to know what this bias is... Maybe it's just me. I mean I guess the only things I watch regularly are the insiders and outsiders... ...and they seem fair to me. I watch the odd drama if it's any good. I tuned out of their radio, it seems a bit boring to be honest. Their footy coverage has lost it's spark. ...but on the whole I think we would be a lot worse off without it.

    Round 1 was wrong, no doubt about that. ...but is this a worse team? No May is a genuine key defender. I've yet to see what the Smith hype is, to me he's a Frost mark II but I do like the inclusion of Rivers. A strong kid with a good leg. Kosi is probably the best crumbing forward we've had in a long time but that's coming off the back of not much...Bennell will also be handy at the foot of packs, Jones is not too bad either. So for small type forwards it's the best line up we've had for a long while. Medium forwards with Trac, Fritsch and Melk look pretty decent. Key forward I will give you but we just don't have one...unless Tommy pulls the finger. A lot will rest on him running back into form but I'm not betting on that one. Jackson is a super smart footballer and will give us something different that may be difficult to counter. With Gawn, Oliver, Viney, Trac and probably Harmes against Cripps and not a lot else I think we will be too strong and provide enough opportunities to kick a winning score.

    What changes need to be made to the constitution 'Sat'? Serious question, not having a go.
  23. rjay replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    It's probably time for him to step up 'dazz'...some of the great zone off, intercept defenders cut their teeth on being good one on one. The likes of Scarlett, Fletcher & Rance. It's a luxury to be just an intercept defender, you have to be accountable some time.

    Fittingly in the number 29 jumper. KB would have been proud.

    The NRL have come back with a better product and the AFL come back with this??? All the excuses in the world can't explain what just happened.
