Grant Thomas commentating on SEN shows why he has little respect... makes comment on a demons player and forgets his name. Who should it be but the guy that just about single-handedly ended his coaching career a few years ago... Brock.

You'd think that while not expected to know all players at all times, knowing exactly who is playing in the game you are being paid to commentate would be a given......

Apparently and unfortunately not, maybe he could check the numbers in future if he continues to get confused or senile ;) !!!

Yeah, he's only been playing AFL for about 5 years...

Meanwhile, demons accounting for themselves very well with everything except disposal. The only thing separating the sides is kicking into fifty and at goal.

MFC: 0.1 - 1

ADE: 2.3 - 15

Moloney, Brock and Davey among the possession getters. Davey our best apparently, and one of few using it well.

A quick Dermie stat. Crows are up to 20 running bounces, Demons just the one.

Crows getting touches everywhere. Goodwin up to 12, Johncock, Dangerfield, Bock, Edwards, Otten, Vince all 8+... Not good signs.

Is this game as bad as it sounds? Bad skills, good endeavour, hardly any goals... not dull, but a long way from watchable?

And however good our defenders are, our forwards are twice as bad...

Worst game ever!!!

Can't believe I'm freezing to death for this [censored].

Idiotic team selection to into the game with Juice and Bate and then let Adelaide do as they please by playing the most hidious defensive game I have ever seen.

Terrible!

And with that Juice, you are now living on borrowed time. You will not last more than a couple more years as a demon, if that. No player in a growing side does that TWICE and goes on to great things.

For the first time since he took the reigns at the club I'm REALLY disappointed in Dean Bailey. His game plan today has stunk and he actually lied about what he wanted us to do - which was kicking it long and getting it into our forward line quickly - nothing could have been further from the truth with all these stupid handballs!! Plus we went in to the game with 3 tall forwards when it was always going to be a shocker of a day. How Maric continues to miss out is baffling. Our forward line pressure has been non-existant too, although with all the players we are pushing behind the ball it doesn't surprise me.

I'm quite embarrassed by the performance today...

Unless he kicks 5 in the last quarter he will be straight out of the side for Robbo next week... against Geelong. I shudder to think of what they will do to us next week!

    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,
