spirit of norm smith

Wow 41 available players... only Lamumba missing from my best 22 (25). Mitch King and VDHberg are the others unavailable.

He was never leaving Adelaide

Remember this name... Brodie Romensky. 189cm utility midfielder. Starring for Western Jets. Very impressive v SA in under 18 champs. Recently 37 possession game for Jets and very efficient. Skills are AFL ready. Played school footy mostly in 2015 but starred this year for the Jets. Rated around 45-65 at start of the year but likely be around 25-30 in our range.

Inside word is Salem will play 1st half only this week. Club will monitor closely.

2018 Premiership to the Demons... reward for the great Jack Watts. A great bloke. A loyal man.

Dawes !!!!!! wtf

5 minutes into the last quarter vs Saints... MFC Twitter "Gawn goals and its a 5 point ballgame. We are set for a beauty". No. Demons lose by 36 points. Against the Power, Hawks, Swans, Saints we have faded in the last quarter to get beaten or against the Swans a thrashing. We need to keep fighting to the end. Is it fitness or spirit??

Dawes and Terlich should be the first players delisted.

WE OVERUSE HANDBALL TO PLAYERS UNDER PRESSURE. IT CONTINUES TO BE A FLAW.

Rookie selection. We may have seen his best. Question remains if he is up to AFL standard. Pace a query.

6 - Viney the rest would be charity votes. I am gutted by yesterdays poor performance. Saints are ahead of us. Our disposals are not up to standard and the overuse of handballs is so frustrating. Get skilled or get out.

VERY VERY DISAPPOINTING

Hibberd for Grimes. Surely the Bombers would take that!!!

Outs: O.mcd (for god sake. 7 poor games in the last 8 weeks), wagner, white, vdhberg, Kennedy, Grimes, M Jones. Ins: Oliver Anb Stretch Bugg Dunn Frost Pedersen Jetta t.mcd Dunn Vince Frost Hunt Stretch Viney Harmes Petracca Pedersen Kent Garlett Hogan Watts Gawn Tyson N.Jones Neal-Bullen Oliver Bugg Brayshaw emerg Hulett Kennedy Michie

Pathetic last 10 minutes. Not even mental strength... again. Happened last time vs Saints

Mitchell, Josh Kennedy, Priddis, Ziebell. None are quick but very effective in todays footy. Tall. Small. Quick. Steady. AFL fits all if you know how to get the footy... and can do some tackling as well !! JT will be in red & blue for at least 2017 and 2018.

and Scully. Many of Demonland had him captaining the Dees by 2016. Watts is a great bloke and loyal clubman. We stick by him and vice versa.

Ok in daylight... risky after dark

Daniher Northey Roos in that order Neeld at the very bottom !!

You little ripper !!

Agree. Pace needed at Etihad. Saints bring in Sinclair and Billings who are quick and onit Delaney. I think VDHBerg is lucky. Stretch is very very unlucky. O.mcd... 6 poor games in the last 7. Very sore and would be lucky to be 100%. I thought Wagner might come back in or Bugg to get a crack at Steven. Just my opinion (ins: Bugg Brayshaw for outs: Vdhberg o.mcd)

Max King ... Mystery injury for this week !!

Prestia will go to the Tigers for pick 7ish as a straight swap. Hibberd to Demons for MFC second round pick # 27 ish

Plenty of piranhas on this thread. Grimes was clearly in our best and stood up when the flow was going Freo's way. He is definitely an asset and his maturity, leadership, tackling and composure will be needed against top teams.

Would we trade Matt Jones for Hibberd?? (yes). That's an option.
