  1. I don't think there is a place for him, form has been average and he gets exposed.
  2. We would be looking for someone like Tomlinson. I think that's why he stays.
  3. A half back called Hardeman... Memories What does the kid play like and is he a relation?

    Daisy... Only joking 'Walking'
  5. Adams?
  6. Averaging 43.5 marks a game...impressive. Expect him to rocket up the rankings.

    He's worth a look of course, but if Freo do the right thing we will pick up as good or more likely better for our needs in the draft. I like him but the cost in draft capital and $'s probably doesn't add up.
  8. A Covid special...there was always going to be a player or two who slipped through. Some good recruiting and a bit of luck see us with a very good player.

    Agree 'Macca', neither are on the boil at the moment. ...we're trying to manufacture a forward line and Grundy might be our best bet. He's more physical than the other 2 at this stage and a big part of the role will be to hit the pack and bring the ball to ground if he can't mark it. If Goody can make this work then we are a shot...
  10. I don't think he was ever out of it 'Jimmy'... Would be more than happy to pick him up.

    There was also Hale at Hawthorn who was crucial to their premiership as a forward. ...also forgotten is that Grundy did play a bit forward as a junior. I don't expect Damian to know this...

    That's really sad 'dazz'... He might not be a great player but he's certainly a good one to have made AFL level. I would guess that none of the supporters getting stuck into him have played an AFL game and probably haven't played at any reasonable level. Haven't met Sam but he seems a good guy from all reports.
  13. Wouldn't bet on it...WC will be aiming for a win before seasons end and this will be the one. They're starting to get some troops back.

    Petty?
  15. rjay replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Probably McVee...
  16. rjay replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Smells perfectly right. He's going back to play as a forward. To develop his forward craft. Wouldn't expect to see him doing any or hardly any ruck time at Casey.

    That's a fair call 'Red'... I'm pretty sure most of us think the 2 rucks is not working at the moment, so it's going to be an interesting watch.
  18. rjay replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    He's not being managed 'bin'... He's been dropped for team balance reasons. That's my code for the 2 of them in the same team are not working at the moment.
  19. rjay replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Well, I guess that puts an end to the Goody is stubborn narrative. I actually know it won't because many on here are more stubborn. ....but to drop Grundy is a big move, a stubborn coach would have gone down with the ship.
  20. Having a big night 'Jimmy?
  21. I think we would have a good idea of his work rate etc given that he's trained with us during preseason and had a game at Casey.
  22. Jackson has played his best footy when Darcy has been out injured or when Darcy has been in injured. Basically when he gets to carry the ruck load. ...as we know, he's not a forward. We have the same issue with Max.
  23. rjay replied to demosaw's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    That's why Max will get a media role when his playing career is done... The Ian Johnson connection helped Gary get a gig in the past. Now we have a bit of nepotism with Eddie. ...but in the end it is an entertainment and the most entertaining, engaging or controversial (Kane and Caro) stay in a job
  24. Part of it's the way we play too. It's often and extremely crowded forward half. If we can isolate him a bit with quicker ball movement then there will be a lot of worried defenders around.

    There's your problem. You don't know what's going on but go on to cast blame anyway.
