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.

 

Bartram - Seasons best game

Bate - Is really struggling

Bell - Wasn't his worst

Bruce - He stepped up

Buckley - Gut busting game

Frawley - Solid down back

Green - Another stellar performance

Jamar - playing decent footy

P.Johnson - the mobile ruckman

Jones - a better game

McDonald - a leaders game

Maric - Some nice things

Martin - Has great courage

Miller - Set the tone

Morton - I love you

Newton - A good effort

Sylvia - a great game

Warnock - Continues to impress

Wheatley - prolific, great kicking

Whelan - Hard, tough, skillful

Valenti - A solid output

Wonaeamirri - Body is tired

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.

Bell - stealing Petterds games

:lol: Had to laugh. - "stealing"

 

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, Bartram - Reason we're last/reason Rome fell

Spot on

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?

Bell - our new Grgic

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
