Welcome back YM! Are you feeling OK? You ALMOST wrote something positive about Cam Bruce. I did find myself agreeing with most of your comments too! Maybe I am unwell too.

I see us putting time into a quality small defender who not only helps other younger players around him out but also helps the team.

Personally, I think an injury-free Whelan is worth playing over a young player because I think he could play for another 2-3 years easily. I could see him fulfilling his role at 31 if his body can take it.

Problem with Wheels is that being injury-free is almost an alien concept. If, in a year's time by round 12-13 he's missed 4-5 games, then I'd be opting for a younger player. But i think he can fulfill the role needed for the team better than any other player on our list at the moment.

But yes, personally I think it's worth playing him

Getting a bit old I think. Matty Whelan isnt god.

Maric is just so smart, and his ball use is first rate. Not sure why the negative comments.

As for Martin, he is simply phenomenal. To come from his background, having had so little time to adapt to AFL and be thrown into a bottom-team's defence is bloody hard. He has handled it like a champ... cool, calm and collected.

Warnock down back was also terrific by the way.

Yep. Maric, Martin and Warnock all good. Martin - I can see the "footy smarts" in him. And cool? He is like Ice! Nickname: "ICE?"

When was Bartram 19?

First year. 2006.

This is totally off-topic, but is a goal from outside 50 counted as an inside-50? Does anyone even know what I mean.

By the way, I assume it doesn't.

I think it would, after all it's got to sail through 50 for it to be a goal. Any statistic.., statistishtia... facts & figures guys who know for sure?? :D

My contribution:

Bell - not good enough.

in regards to a couple of players,

Maric- he just seems to have time, he gives the impression he is in total control of any situation he finds himself in.

Martin- is getting better, totally fearless going back, but the game isnt a reflex action for him YET he has to think first, but it will come, its great to see a big body in the backline.

Bartram, had a great third quarter, caused havoc as a small forward got his hands on alot of the ball.

I dont care what onyone says its great singing the song after the game.

And then the next day watching and tapeing it from foxtel, and still abusing the umpires for the amount of times they allowed the eagles to THROW the ball!

Bell - Unable to spoil

Anyone else noticed Bells inability to spoil the ball from behind even when it seems he is right on their hammer?

probably indicates how down on form and confidence he is, considering that last year his spoiling was his best asset.

although i cant say ive noticed it. who did he play on on saturday?

    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

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    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
