My 3 word player analysis V The Rats

If you were there, you would have seen that he didn't care.

If he cared he wouldn't have been jogging around in circles with his hands in the air calling for the ball.

You did not have to been there to form Nasher's opinion. The fact you go to the game but still hold that naive impression says alot.

Its ridiculous to allege that he or any player does not care.

Its a pity the game has passed him by. It should be his last AFL game.

IMO the ability is still there, but the desire is gone.

Maybe I'm wrong, but when a player doesn't go in for the tackle, doesn't run those extra few steps and doesn't chase, but basically stands still when the ball is not in close vicinity, they just don't care anymore.

That doesn't mean they don't care about the club, it simply means they are tired of playing the game at the highest level and that the motivation to keep going is no longer there. Knowing you have 3 games left (if that) is certainly not helping the situation.

As I said, I admire White for everything he has done for the club (through some horrific injuries) and it saddens me to see him leave the game on such a poor note.

BINGO..It really takes the edge and urgency off. Probably not even intended..it just happens. You know the end is nigh...and it just kills the moment.

I dont really understand why he was on the park.

fair call. those that have seen more of sandy than i would know better, but i'm not sure he did anything to justify a return. then he again he might still have been our only option to replace jamar.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
