Where does the improvement come from? (long OP)
Bombay Airconditioning replied to CHF's topic in Melbourne Demons
Last year Watts overcame the one thing that's been holding him back his whole career. His game is now complete and he is the most skilful player on our list. Maintaining the rage isn't enough, he must set himself the task of influencing more games for longer. I'm in two minds, on one hand I want The Weed to play but on the other hand I think does he need another year at Casey? If Pedo plays Watts doesn't have to ruck and Pedo is serviceable. I'll be bloody disappointed if Watts rests on his laurels, he is capable of having an AA season if he applies himself. -
Equal most with Cats, Hawks, Dogs.
-
12 of their first 16 games at Etihad.
-
Demons, Cats, Dogs, Hawks all have 8 six day breaks over the course of the season. Swans and Crows have 7.
-
We got a bye after first Darwin game, the only other option would be to play second game in round 23.
-
An absolute disgrace.
-
As long as this trend continues, that's the main thing.
-
Appreciated, always interesting to get another persons thoughts. I think we're better than what we showed rd 23 against the cats. For some reason I just can't bring myself to rate them.
-
12 x MCG 1 x Friday night 3 x Saturday nights Anzac Day eve No Etihadhome games QB Darwin/bye/Carlton MCG Darwin/Port MCG Best draw in years.
-
Out of interest what are your losses and 50/50,s ? cheers
-
Was just having a look thanks. A big sucked in to anyone associated with the Richmond football club in any capacity. They've been on the end of favourable draws for years.
-
No excuses, finals a must.
-
Deserved, they entertain. How did Richmond fare?
-
Mods can this thread be merged with the Alex Silvagni thread?
-
Can we let him train with us over summer with no guarantee?
-
3rd page but we got there. Have the rest forgotten the Doggies draw in the finals.

Best 22 for Round 1, 2017

I was thinking the same thing, if "reports" are to be believed he signed on for 500k per season, for what? To be an emergency. An idea, and I know this won't be popular but why couldn't Melksham play Jetta's role. If he can be equally as good defensively but be better offensively this has to be considered. This offers the team more flexibility. Think Geelong, think Hawthorn the idea has merit. -
I care, we've still got Garland on the books for 2 more years. This club has a habit of paying dead money. As for surplus to requirements, who comes in when one of Frost or the McDonald brother go down with injury (touch wood)? And the answers not Garland. No-one can begrudge him for taking up an opportunity to play AFL again but he's hardly on a kings ransom. As for the cap, I'd love to know who's getting what. Obviously supporters don't pick the team but a lot of today's best 22's don't have H or Melksham.

I hope not.
-
Have we treated Dawes poorly too?
-
Players are on pretty good wickets, not getting a game is part of footy.
-
Sick of hearing this, how was he poorly treated? Still waiting for an answer from another poster as to how Roo's treated Grimes poorly.
