    Did he teach Jesse Hogan his goal kicking run up ? Sorry couldn’t resist as it’s awful - granted he did get the job done (just) My query would be speed at AFL level
  2. Sydee replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Nice problem to have 😂 I would do it Genuine 50/50 game imo
  3. Sydee replied to Dannyz's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Agree - Brown would be my preferred target but either would be a step up on our tall forward options especially if Petty is sent back to D50 next season

    I tend to ignore people that are overly negative these days The reality is Fritta would be a walk up start and welcome addition to almost every team in the competition We can be overly harsh on our own only for that look questionable after the fact Grundy JJ Toby Bedford all say hi 👋

    Parfitt ? Never been a fan of his work - Bailey Laurie offers more upside imo
  6. Sydee replied to dazzledavey36's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Ok so you think Fritta is playing at Casey ? If you think that much of him and others share your opinion then we won’t get anything for him in terms of draft picks Not sure your logic is that sound on this one
  7. Sydee replied to dazzledavey36's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Huge and unnecessary risk imo Get our system entering F50 fixed and Fritta will pay us back in spades
  8. Sydee replied to Flag Favourites 3019's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    If we want to persist with both Turner and Petty inside F50 and Tomlinson goes Young might be worthy of a list spot. I think hapless is a stretch tbh and he can kick off both sides pretty well which is rare for a KPD. If Jed Adams was showing more I’d agree he may not be worth pursuing but atm if May or Lever gets injured which they seem prone to do he might be a good back up

    How many weeks did Maynard get suspended for again 🤔 It is entirely possible to hurt without getting suspended - the first instruction would be don’t shake that peanuts hand or pat him on the backside We talk a big game but the last couple of seasons I can’t remember a game where we looked to be physically intimidating - in 2021 and early 2022 we had far more mojo imo
  10. Sydee replied to dazzledavey36's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Play against the filth and put him straight to Maynard with specific instructions to cause maximum hurt None of our guys seem interested in that goal atm
  11. Sydee replied to Whispering_Jack's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Glad the MFC is not doing that deal - way overs imo
  12. Are you related to Zali Steggall by chance?
  13. Sydee replied to Flag Favourites 3019's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Taberner is the ideal replacement for Schache - wait a minute 🤔🤔

    Do we have a good draft hand ? Sure we have a top 10 pick but that’s due to our poor performances this season and nothing more - our second round pick we gave away for a bloke that didn’t really fire a shot (we may get it back via ANB) but overall I’d say we have an ok draft hand but not one that is by itself going to reset our list For us to improve next year we need - a much improved game-plan - some luck with injury - some improvement from existing players that haven’t contributed much to date or in 2024 - some smart recruiting to compliment point one and/or fill gaps in our list (I’m not confident about this one because recently our recruiting has been very sub standard) - and finally no distractions just a unified focus list hell bent on winning a premiership
  15. Not sure why he is part of our NGA program if the rules are clear we don’t get access to him via draft Why would we be pumping time and resources into someone with absolutely zero benefit Do we not know the rules or do the goal posts always shift for us
  16. Sydee replied to SthSea22's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Ants can carry up to 20x their own body weight you’d think their hamstrings were pretty good right
  17. Sydee replied to MadAsHell's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Harry Boyd He doesn’t sound like he is desperate to play AFL in this interview- sounds like he likes the level at Norwood and concentrating on his studies which are his “main” focus
  18. Sydee replied to MadAsHell's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    What does he have that Will Verrall doesn’t have at that level allowing for the difference in age/experience ? I would have thought if we are looking at a back up ruck they need to be 200cm plus
  19. Sydee replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I’m hoping Port wins just to see what scarf Albo wears for the Prelim Finals
  20. Sydee replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I thought scrimshaw was very good against the puppy dogs
  21. Thought I was being a bit optimistic 😂 He does look like a real good one imo and would love to add him to our list Question is whether we need a pure midfielder more - he may even be capable of midfield such is his mobility Anyway I’m sure JT knows a hell of of lot more than I do 😀
  22. Sydee replied to Travy14's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I truly hope there is no way we recruit this bloke Please take our picks to the draft we must be able to get better value there - a big refresh is needed
  23. Having watched the Gippsland v Dandenong final my observations Langford - good in patches but not that influential. Probably just a down day and you can see he is a talent Ah Mu - big boy and reasonably mobile not sure if that size will be enough in AFL but not with potential Mentha - looked pretty good before being injured Andrew - like his brother very athletic and has some skills worth a point imo I was probably most impressed with Alix Tarau who would be a good second round pick if available. Over 190cm mobile , good hands and doesn’t mind a bit of rough stuff.
  24. Sydee replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    He was subbed off at half time with ribs/breathing problems - perhaps a bit harsh But port have been abysmal
  25. Sydee replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Apologies if it’s been discussed previously but what are the concerns expressed or implied by Trac about Oliver’s treatment in 2023?
