Not too bad Joeboy: You were kind with some, but more-or-less right on.

Bell didn't have a great day, but he battled manfully I thought. Farmer's a pretty good player and at least one of his goals wasn't Daniel's fault. I don't know that there's much you could say in a positive way about his game, but then if you can find positives about Jamar, Rivers, and Jones you could find something to say about Belly. Don't get me wrong. Rivers' game was probably the best 4 possession game I've ever seen. Jamar had nothing in the stats column but somehow exerted himself. And Jones was just tagged out by a more mature player. I have nothing against any of them based on yesterday alone... I just reckon Bely cops it unnecessarily sometimes.

I reckon, given the form of Garland and Warnock, Bell will probably be the one to make way fro Wrecker. And that's fair enough. There were only a couple of bad games from the demons yesterday.

Bell - wont escape Sandy

Bruce - predictably butchered footy

Jamar - amazingly quelled Sandilands

Jones - career worst game

McDonald - battled hard again

McLean - years best game

Miller - career best game

Moloney - took Baileys advice

Morton - dominant display imminent

Rivers - dominated without possessions

Robertson - It takes 22

Warnock - kid has arrrived

I'm so pleased for Jamar, his ruck work against the giant was exceptional. He jumped early and ha very effective. His best game for the club. Miller was our best just worked hard all day. As our skills improve this guy will start to have more influence on games, will never be a star but will present all day and if we can hit targets he wil take 10-15 marks per match. Miller and Bate worked great as lead up targets.

Bartram had one to forget, Bell I thought was OK.

Its amazing when our midfield finally got on top in the second half none of our key defenders got much of the ball, Carroll, Rivers, Frawley didn't have a possession in the last half but still did there jobs.

3 words that summed up our players in the last half- They backed themselves

Yze Magic - becoming increasingly boring

Yeah, he is so so BORING and IGNORANT ( As well as being so bloody STUBBORN). Bruce played a sensational game but YM shuts his eyes and makes his usual innane comments. I wonder if Cameron, at some stage, pinched his girl friend? I do wish he would grow up and be HONEST occasionally.

Tell me one time where I have been dishonest?

If bruce plays well, I will acknowledge it.

I wonder how many people here rate Andrew Carazzo from Carlton? Gets a shitload of the pill, but does nothing with it. Same as Bruce.

It's like I saw a completely different player with the name Colin Garland. :o:unsure:

I wish I could see what the above posters saw but I thought he was woeful, and has showed us next to nothing over the last few weeks. Straight out for Wheels.

i'm gonna make y_m on this one. maybe he was a tad harsh, but i honestly thought that bruces disposal let him down. 30 something touches, had lots of it and ran hard to get it but wasnt damaging, and imo there were enough times in the 1st half when he turned it over when he shouldnt have that his game balanced out. 31 touches definitely not in my best on field though.

I have watched the replay, and apart from two loose handballs early in the game his disposal was as good as any other player. He put himself in and under and dealt out many slick EFFICIENT handballs particularly when the game was up for grabs. Only Brock McLean laid more tackles (7) than Bruce(6). By failing to acknowledge these facts you are being DISHONEST or plain PIG HEADED. I really hope it is the latter.

MJ is untouchable. Was going to go with Bird, but it would be unfair to compare flash to a pale white dude with a pube moe! (for the record, i am a MASSIVE bird fan, no harm in the pube mo comment).

Flash is something else! Maybe not MJ, but Damn, he is close enough!

Flash = Allen Iverson

Fast and playing above their weight division.

actually i will agree about his handballing in the 2nd half, perhaps those two in the first half just have really stuck in my mind.

bobby, what was your opinion of his kicking throughout the whole match, and relative to each half?

Deanox, I'll answer that one too. I kept a close eye on Cam throughout the game, as I dont believe that his disposal is as bad as its being made out to be. Yesterday (apart from those early errant handballs), his disposal was first rate. He did miss a gettable shot on goal after he caught Pavlich holding the ball, but his kicking during play was spot on.

Deanox,

I must say that dees rule 4eva has answered your question about Bruce's kicking. As he said, his shot at goal was poor but I thought he found his target with the great majority of his kicks. Basically, I too took special note of his much criticized disposals and I fully concur with demons rule 4eva. Maybe the skills coach is doing the job on Cam.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
