Agree. Mark it in the diary.

Dogs are ruthless and hungry. Just want to be THE BEST. 3-Bont 2-Macrae 1- Dale. BONT clearly the best in the league. Oliver v Bont will be amazing. Trac could be our midfielder to kick 3-4 goals a week but doesn’t seem to have the absolute hunger it’s their pace that will worry us, kicking efficiency and run for 2nd and 3rd efforts WE MUST WIN THE CLEARANCES

Ruthless

Had a chance last year when Alex Witherden was available. In my opinion Eagles got him for a 3rd round pick which was an absolute bargain. He was squeezed out of Brisbane but is a highly skilled small defender. Kicks it 9/10 times and finds targets. Also dependable man on man.

Yes definitely more RUTHLESS than we are.

Sparrow for Melksham Salem for Jetta Weid has the show he wants to be our key forward. It’s not happening right now

Agree. RUTHLESS?? Hardly. Just went through the motions v Swans and v Blues. Had reasonable wins but should have won each by 4-5 more goals. Tailed off and again tonight.

I’m in total agreement. Umps clearly had the crows victory in mind !!

In agreement

Ahhhhhhhhhh!!

Crows have scored 7 goals from turnovers!! That was the old Melbourne. We are better than that now. Cmon Demons!!

Ditto. It’s the big call out by Goody at half time. Two way running needed.

Agree. It’s a joke.

Just interested in seeing how he goes. Your vitriol towards fellow Demon supporters is unbelievably tiresome. Do you really enjoy it? Obviously you’re still on the mods watch list.

Actually interested in seeing Matt Ling from the Swans in this match as well. Former top 15 pick a few years ago. Injured over 2018-19 but apparently back in good form. He is a fast skilled left footer who plays half back- wing. Swans have a few similar types so Dees might reach out at year end for a chat.

Schloithe is an absolute star of the WAFL. Spent time in Freo list but they have a strong midfield through 2014-16 and missed his chance. At 28, he’d be an immediate run on type but realistically only cover for our midfield. We already have a few like Sparrow as depth. I’d prefer a young quick outside runner with skills like Will Bravo.

Great article from Peter Ryan. I think it’s now official. The Kozzy fan club is officially FULL. It’s in fact over subscribed. There is a long waiting list to join.

Serial pest. Throws back his head as soon as he is tackled. Grub.

Time to get the pen and paper in front of Nibbler. ANB is having a standout year. He has had the endurance but his fumbles or decisions let him down. He fits even fitter and more assured. Definitely playing the HFF role as it should be. Also good at the tackle and defensive structure of the team.

Clarry has taken a step. He is a genuine star in the competition.

I’d like to use whatever $ we might left (perhaps from Nev and Jonesy retiring at year end) to attract Cerra. He is exactly the type to complete our team.

Thanks. I just read that about Hore.

Werridee- nailed it again. Just to clarify though… is Marty Hore also ruled out for the year as well ?

9 wins in 9 games. I’m loving it. After years of despair, we have to BELIEVE it is our year. As the Reverend Neale Daniher said “ Why not? Why not us?” We can win the premiership. There is still room to improve and we have to, with big tests against Dogs, Lions and Power.

Nathan Freeman would be an amazing story. From the Pies to the Saints to obscurity and back. Years of injury and inability to get on the field. Imagine if he was signed up and got onto the park on Grand Final day and played in a winning Demons team. Optimism gone crazy.
