He's got company. Rex, Tony Shaw, Robert Walls, Malcolm Blight.............photo finish for worst.

What makes it worse is when he does bag MFC and Gerard Healy just sits there and lets him. For instance tonight on AW DWAYNE made a comment that it was a waste to even comment about Melbourne at the moment. A deathly silence from Gerard. What is Gerard's relationship with Melbourne? Does anyone know?

Talking to my mad Demon mate last night re Healy comment of how Chris Johnson had blossomed in the great Carlton environment ("Role Models R Us") compared to the lack of anything at Melbourne. My mate pointed out to me that in Inside Football this week, Johnson's total rating after 3 games is 11/30, putting him 18th on the list of Carlton players, which rating probably flatters him from what I've seen, and from what some Carlton supporters I know have whinged to me.

But why let facts get in the way of a good bagging of the Demons, eh, Healy and Russell?

Btw, my mate has rung up 3AW a couple of times to lock horns with Russell, under the name of John from Trafalgar, and has done the Demons proud with strongly put cogent arguments. Sure, doesn't change the minds of the broadcasters, but if you let garbage stand uncontested you can't complain if it gets currency.

Probably just [censored] we starting winning after he ditched us for Sydney.

Yes, pretty sure I've heard him before. Tell him to keep it up. Keep that 'air-head' accountable.

Does anyone believe Chris Johnson would get a game in our backline right now? The answer is no.

I can't stand Russell and have no doubt that he has no regard whatsoever for the MFC. He was a crap 50 game footballer that got lucky in the media through an untimely death. He's also a South Australian with a chip on his shoulder. Most South Australians don't like 10 clubs in Victoria, so it's only natural that our club would be on his radar. Unfortunately, we as a club give ammunition to pricks like Russell. Hopefully that's started to change.

That said, he didn't offend me with his commentary on Sunday. He was more balanced than I expected.

Quite right. As a Carlton supporter I've found his lack of objectivity in relation to my club somewhat sickening. As we lurched from one crisis to another, I heard Russell on

3AW say ''Don't you just love it ! ''

Gerard Healy to his credit, said ''No actually I don't.''

It would appear he has now dropped off us and zeroed in on your club. The bloke is a five star cretin.

He copped his right whack when he aligned himself with Port Adelaide against Geelong in the '07 GF.

The best way to shut the buffoon up is to win this week !!

To quote the great E.J. Whitten '' Stick it right up 'em'', and him too ;)

But Murray your club cheated for around 30 years so they kinda deserved all they got (Excluding the Priority Draft Picks i might add!)

30 years ? Ok if you like, but I don't think the other 15 clubs have been squeeky clean either.

But doesn't alter the fact the Russell is a cretin ! ;)

21,000 is higher than a lot of people thought in this game

And higher then the Swans can get for a Elimination Final on a saturday night. Dwayne Russell is an AFL puppet, loves all the interstate teams and hates the victorian teams, especially Melbourne for who knows what reason???

Bit of credit to him here.

Re: Port Adelaide.

Who'd have thought a 7 year old girl would've designed the best jumper they've ever had.

Got a chuckle. Though, at closer inspection, I'd have thought a 7 year old girl to be the most likely.

    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,
