Match Preview and Team Selection - Round 6
Ted Lasso replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Michie is stiff, thought he was one of our better players against freo and great against Richmond and broke in on strong form, not a fan of this change -
Match Preview and Team Selection - Round 6

grimes is pretty stiff I reckon -
jimmy, your time is now.

I thought behind Tommy Mac, viney was our best player before his injury, he'd really stepped it up a notch, would have been so handy in the crows game, even against the tigers, a bull like that is perfect for wet weather footy

THE DRUG SCANDAL: AFL TRIBUNAL DECIDES
Ted Lasso replied to Whispering_Jack's topic in Melbourne Demons
If it was confirmed they had an injection regime like the Essendon football club had, they themselves admitted that it was " experimental" and " walking close to the line" then i think there is absolutely no excuse for not keeping records, and in turn makes them look about as guilty as they possibly could without being caught in the act. -
Ross Lyon is a pretty handy coach, having the best player in the comp probably doesn't hurt either

Eddie threatens to quit over equalisation proposals
Ted Lasso replied to mdemonski2's topic in Melbourne Demons
you can do these things when you're unemployed and have no teeth. -
Let's all just agree to stay out of Christians bottow draw alright?

Another thing to remember is the investment we have made in Jesse is something he's really understanding and respecful of, we gave up picks 3 and 13 for him, flew him back to perth every time he needed to go home, Roosy has visited his family to explain the direction of the club and how much we love having Jesse, we have signed him on an extension well before his contract expired for him to make, and i'm not certain of the figures exactly but next year he's on above 500k per year for a kid who at that stage hadn't played a game. we have put total faith in this kid and Jesse wants to repay that.

THE DRUG SCANDAL: AFL TRIBUNAL DECIDES
Ted Lasso replied to Whispering_Jack's topic in Melbourne Demons
Question: WADA choose not to appeal, any reason they can't release some of what they found to the public, say they have felt the public viewed them as being on a witch hunt and wanted to show there was merit in their actions, the damage to the Essendon football clubs reputation would be huge and it would prevent them from essentially getting away with murder -
my friend has told me a few times that Jesse has said he probably wouldn't go back to Perth at all if not for his family, that there is so much more to do in Melbourne, and he loves being in the home of footy, apparently a lot of his mates are over here now anyways, besides Dom sheed who is an Eagles boy, jaeger up at the Suns and David swallow is up there too
-
Dan Hannebery rumour is based on the fact he is looking to sell his house in Sydney, he insists this isn't because of a potential move back to vic.
-
Boyd has shown a quarter of us much and is on a mil a year, hogan is already in our top 5 players off the back of 5 games, imagine another 2-3 years time when he's ooc, could easily be the dominant forward of the Comp
-
Guarantee that is the sort of offer another side will make if we don't. This kid is that good!
-
Shame he didn't get asked about his dust up with mark neeld
-
7 years at 1.2 mil a year, set him up for life financially, he knows we've invested a ton In him so I'm sure he wants to see this through
-
I'd love to see the toump come up to AFL level and play a blinder, partially to see this thread explode, but mostly because we desperately need him too!
-
Geez petracca is a big unit! Kid physically looks like he's been in the system a couple of years already!
-
Brayshaw is far more impressive than degoey imo
-
I just don't feel Bennell has the attitude/application to deliver on his talent on a consistent enough basis to be the type of player that the Melbourne football club needs, for the cost I think we could get a better player/package which could deliver more consistently
-
Imagine the confidence jimmy Toumpas got last year when he'd come up to afl level plays okay but clearly needs time to get used to the pace of the game but gets dropped the next week while watts gets chance after chance Not a great example imo
-
Wouldn't go near Harley Bennell Dion Prestia would be a good get
-
I think we will keep Trengove because If he gets fit he has a lot of upside His injury history would leave him with stuff all trade value
-
Spot on, kid has talent, but he just isn't hungry, Big difference between wanting to succeed and refusing to fail.

Cocaine?
