Just heard on ABC radio that TJ & J Sherman have been dropped from this weeks squad.

Apparently they didn't turn up to training yesterday..... :rolleyes:

I think Jack Grimes has a much better work ethic. Hopefully he will come good with his injuries and have a long and distinguished career with the MFC.

Thoughts ?

    Both "didn't train", not "didn't turn up to training".

    Both are injured. TJ was kicking on his non-preferred against the Dogs because of a hamstring injury.

    Travis is gone.

    Why would you think Grimes has a better work ethic. Travis has been a proven B to A grader a times. Grimes is a 1st year playter without a single statistic to his name.

    The curse of MFC has been to over inflate values of players. Lets not load him up early.

    I heard it on ABC radio Brisbane 4pm.

    Said they were dropped because they did not turn up to training.

    Maybe they worded it wrong ? :wacko:

    I was only informing what I had heard.

    exactly, take it easy on Grimes, he hasn't played a game and there are people on this site already calling him a future Captain?????????? :wacko:

    A hack??

    Carved up by dunn?

    I wouldn't go that far. I'm sure you loved how he played as we all did when he was with us.

    It's just his attitude that was the problem.

    Whats that saying.... is it 90% of the game is played above the shoulders. He is soft as butter and weak minded. He could have been one of the greats.

    Work ethic has nothing to do with statistics.

    Trav was one of my favourites at the club but he was lazy at times.......

    There has been mention elsewhere of Grimes great attitude and work ethic.

    I am by no means putting pressure on Grimes by saying that hopefully he gets over his injuries and has a long career with the MFC.

    Get a grip, FFS! :angry:

    Mono.... it pays to read the whole thread before getting :angry:

    Read my post at 6.27pm above that says - There has been mention elsewhere of Grimes great attitude and work ethic.

    Now.. for the simple people that jump to conclusions :rolleyes: I am talking about attitude and work ethic both of which have to be applied off the field to present it on the field.

    As I said earlier TJ was one of my favourites but he was, on occasion, lazy and his attitude and work ethic was questionable both off and on the field.

    What I was referring to predominantly was a hope that Grimes (who comes in at the expense of TJ) injuries come good and he has a long career with the Mighty MFC.

    We won't know whether the gamble has payed off or not for some time yet. The kid has plenty of time up his sleeve, after all he is not turning 28 this year is he ? ;)

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
