    Do you think they'll really have flying cars by then?

    It was always about effort and courage and I don't think he has shown that consistently, today he showed it (and conversely many many times he hasn't). Now he needs to back it up.

    It's the minimum standard.

    There are certain things in football that are outside of your control, but effort and courage aren't on that list. I enjoyed today but he has to back it up. Not just next week, but all year. I don't care if he has a bad day when the ball doesn't fall his way - that was my football career in a nutshell btw - but even on those days you can tackle, chase and shepherd - which was why I kept getting picked even though I had limitations. Talent is easy. That will get you onto a list. It's the little things and hard work that keeps you there.

    I'm a harsh critic of his. Not because I think he's a bad pick, but because I think he's a great pick that doesn't care if he gets the best out of himself, and as much as he frustrates me I look forward to the day when we only talk about how good he is rather than seeing play a good game and crossing our fingers and hoping he can do it again.

    But, hey, In Roos We Trust.

    Watts: The great white fear.

    Is he tough enough?

    This will be the most argued point on demonland for the next 5 years.

    Try 8 :)

    Not a great look for Jack if all those screen grabs are true.

     Nothing! Nothing at all. This thread has popped up for no reason. On the day when Mumford has exploded into the news, Jack has popped up for ... no reason at all!

    Dunno ... it might enhance his reputation for some ... not that anything has happened mind you.

    Mrs Mac's pies are the best kind of pies

    Other kinds of pies are for eastern state guys

    This thread just gave me flashbacks of getting trolled by Curry & Beer.

    I agree! He will be a James hird type of player. Just give him time! He is devoloping well for a kid doing his year 12. And remember he has'nt even done a pre-season. Wait until he gets 2 or 3 of those under his belt. He will burn!!!

    lol

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
