I thought Yze was pretty ordinary yesterday, he was doing alot of the kick in's from fullback and he turned the ball over a couple of times that were costly to box hill. He was playing a sweeping roll from half-back, having alot of handball recieves and setting up play from half-back but turn the ball over a few times with bad decision making an intercepted kicks. Mind you it was a day, where no one really stood out with hitting leading targets. Funny thing was, I was standing behind the goals where Yze was kicking in (During the First Quarter) And Aaron Davey was yelling Yze's name and trying to put him off was very funny.

P.S Belly was clearly our best yesterday his attack of the football and effort to make a contest was first class.

At least our seniors are playing good footy. Cant ask for everything. Watts wont play for another 4 weeks or so.

I just wonder if that's playing on his mind? He handles himself very well, so I doubt it has anyting to do with it, but it could be playing in his mind: I won't be playing until Round 11, so anything I do, I'll probably be playing for Casey next week. It would be a difficult position to be in. Maybe, I'm not giving him enough respect for his professional outlook?

On a side note.......

On the way into the ground on Sun my MFC card was scanned. I didn't think anything of it at the time otherwise I would have asked.

I presume it was to stop people getting pass outs and then handing their cards to others. But I thought maybe the MFC are being charged for the entry, if this is the case I would have paid at the gate. It is something that would be nice to know for next time.

Thanks for that Bob, that's some interesting observations. One of his negatives before being drafted was his work rate, but I suppose even superman had his kryptonite

Playing alongside Miller will give him an insight how to get the best out of himself in that regard.

I'm a little unsure if effort can be 'taught'. There's been plenty of very talented players who just didn't work hard enough and eventually failed who had determined players around them.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well …

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    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
