Trac is definitely on the upward trajectory to being Elite. My kids get excited when he bursts into forward 50 and nails the goal. In my 45 years of supporting the Dees, Robbie Flower remains the best player that I’ve seen in a red and blue jumper.

I love it. Chocolate ripple cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. yes - Harmes “form has *deserted him “

Last week after the Port game, the trade out drums were beating. He had a shocker. Fast forward to one week and he was in our best v Crows and our best 3 (behind Clarry and Trac) v Roos. He showed again his talent and will be a key driver in our club over the next few years.

Agree. He kicked 2.3 and should have nailed at least 5 goals. He played a good game but with the amount of footy coming inside 50, he gets plenty of opportunity. At least he didn’t get caught under the ball so much as in prior years. Big game v Pies. Likely Darcy Moore or Roughead, both of whom are having very good years and it’s a challenge for Weid this week. We need him this year to really be our key target.

Likely only 13 players from the Dees 2019 team will be facing the Pies this week. Key additions in Langdon, Tomlinson, Weideman, Pickett, Jackson.

Yes needs a big boost. Form has desserted him. I’d give him a Pendlebury or Sidebottom assignment this week. Maybe play on Sidebottom on the wing opposite to Langdon.

Spargo had a good game. Probably gets another go this weekend v Pies. He’s a smart footballer and running was good. Kicking for me remains questionable but we’ll see. His play to go at the footy v Daw in the last quarter was good. He got crunched then got up and went again. Definitely one for goody to share. I’m still doubtful on Spargo and I’d expect him to deliver on a weekly basis ... that’s the standard now.

Jack was a very good Demon and should be remembered. Always welcome back. 152 games. 9 years. He is still great mates with most of the players and always was the most generous bloke with supporters and our young kids at footy clinics and functions.

A star. Huge game again tonight. He has the confidence now to take it on and destroy the opposition. Sign him up for another 5 years at least.

6 Petraccccccca 5 Oliver 4 Brayshaw 3 Lever 2 Langdon 1 May Weid and Fritsch needed to kick straight to get into the votes

Some tough calls. Gawn and Viney in. I think we need Lockhart back to mind the small forwards like Elliott, Daicos etc. ins. Gawn Viney Lockhart out. Tommy mcd. Jones Vandenburg

This trio is already looking like 200 game players. ??????

Fritta - finally. Can he actually practice his kicking !!!!

He’s been okay like Oscar was okay. This is the standard every week. I think he showed more composure with the footy mostly.

His kicking is usually very very good. Needs to convert more to be truly damaging and step up. He’s improved but still a way to go.

Ditto. Ditto. Ditto.

36 inside 50s - 5 goals. So much wasted footy ONCE AGAIN ???

Ffs. Spuds

I’m still in shock. Our leadership “cohort” must be very thin. I thought May would be the obvious choice. But again like the “Preuss non inclusion and tommy mcd and Spargo inclusions”, I’m completely out of sync with Goodys mind right now.

What a far-K-ennn joke. They should be sent to the bush. They were completely biased and inconsistent. They also saw Gawn being hit 60 metres off the ball and did nothing.

Glad the way Kane Cornes call out the Crows. Pathetic mob.

I think this is the biggest issue. Our players look to kick to Max both in the kick outs and in general play down the line. We will need to execute our kicking better and not just kick to a pack. North has pretty good key defenders so need to lower our eyes when kicking to the inside 50.

North’s goalkickers likely. smalls - Anderson Zurhaar Hall talls - Daw Larkey but they always seem to beat us through their mids kicking goals. Higgins Polec Dumont Simpkin. Really have to stop Higgins. I’d give Harmes this assignment
