To suggest Howes be promoted & play fwd shows shows the poster clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.
-
Silly comment of the week award. Another Demonlander creaming his pants over Howes who hasn't actually done anything yet.
-
Hopefully it finishes Zorkos career - what a despicable grub. He was sniping & provoking all night after he realised he couldn't get a kick. Well done Dees to keep their eye on the ball.
-
Zorko captain & Hird back as coach. Sam Fisher skills coach.
-
I'm really talking about Demonland & the Media. A lot of outrage, a lame scripted apology & its over. Maybe have a beer & chill out you still sound outraged.
-
Don't hold your breath. The AFL did SFA about the Cripps farce & they will do nothing about this.
-
Every year sime Demonlanders are creaming their daks for a recruit that hasn't actually done anything. It used to be Rosman now its Howes. Might be an idea to wait until he's actually played some decent footy.
-
Thats all very well but you are supposed to reward good consistent form particularly when Casey are undefeated. As defenders Hunt, Bowey & Rivers all paid the price but there seems to be a different rule for the small fwds & others. Only Bedford has been given any chance to show his wares up fwd. I would argue that Chandler, Baker & Dunstan have been denied reasonable opportunities to show their wares & ANB, Spargo & Sparrow have been generously looked after. This in a season when the forward line has struggled.

JAKE BOWEY APPRECIATION THREAD.
Cranky Franky replied to leave it to deever's topic in Melbourne Demons
Surely ANB, Spargo & Sparrow are all under a cloud as their recent form is scratchy. Our small fwds in particular are not going well ATM. -
JAKE BOWEY APPRECIATION THREAD.
Cranky Franky replied to leave it to deever's topic in Melbourne Demons
Could see him replacing Spargo as a small defensive fwd. -
Yes its got to stop but it won't as long as people can post anonymously. Its time that people were required to put their real names on social media accounts.

Patrick Cripps FREE to play
Cranky Franky replied to spirit of norm smith's topic in Melbourne Demons
Lets hope Cripps gets booed every time he goes near the ball for the rest of the year. -
Eddie Betts opens up on the weird camp
Cranky Franky replied to John Crow Batty's topic in Melbourne Demons
Still can't work out all the outrage. Everyone knew it was a total disaster 3-4 years ago. Only some of the details are new. Imagine if someone released unknown embarrassing details about the MFC merger & everyone got into a huff & started demanding enquiries & apologies. I'm sure Eddies book has sold well. -
Another game where our fwd strategy looked confused & is anyone actually working on kicking techniques?

An apology for promoting violence would have been better...and Sunshine - you sound like a villain from an old episode of The Bill. -

Think u are the only poster that's mentioned Eddie has a book to sell & him or the publishers might be milking things. The Crows camp was a [censored] show & has already been well documented. -

Nice work. Congratulations. -

The head of Canberra's TAFE has just been stood down for paying $millions to a training organisation for awareness & transformative cultural change. TAFE could not provide a coherent statement explaining what was actually delivered. Maybe it was the same mob that ran the Crows camp. -
I agree. I reckon Goodie has stamped his papers which is unfair because he has played better footie than some who have got games this year.
-
Thats nonsense. For some reason the BT have put a line through Baker & have ignored him despite excellent form at Casey & being a player with genuine speed. He was given one game last year & despite 15 touches was then dropped. Baker, Dunstan & Chandler should have all been given more opportunities this year when Spargo, Jordon& ANB have played poorly. I predict he will go to another club & play senior football.
-
Did you actually watch the game ? Martin dominated & kept the dogs in the game.
-
You cannot be serious ? Ellison started really well but has struggled the last month and Bell is barely at VFL reserves standard. He can't kick, mark or handball so yes lets draft him.
-
And lets take an opportunity to restart the culture wars. That comment makes as much sense as Trump's bleach advice.
-
That's not quiet correct. Try sticking to the facts which are on the public record. He suggested Daisy let Carey get a word in. Then he also suggested networks were employing women on the basis of their gender not their ability. I guess its matter of taste. There have always been good & dreadful commentators. I like Daisy. Rex is even worse than BT.
-
Well all thatp means is that he is an accurate kick not that he is all that well versed in forward craft. Maybe he is a decent fwd coach - I don't know but I'd have thought it was a specialist position. Everyone seems to agree that our fwd line isn't working as well as other areas. When we keep banging away high balls that don't work & when our big fwds all lead to the same square metre of ground who is at fault ?
