Although we are $9 longshots,i think we are a real chance today,IF we all come to play.

Let's give Brucey a great and memorable win in his 200th.

FWIW,i've taken those $9 odds.

Yeah you should have. Against Decent Opposition we have no mid field. It's too obvious.

I agree,time to trade Brock while we can still get something for him.

So you have gone from thinking we have a good enough team to beat Geelong at the cattery to wanting to trade Brock McLean?

The two hours of footy I saw wasn't that bad.

Reality people - we only beat two interstate sides on the G, who had their best players out (Cox and Kerr) or out of form (Cornes, Tredrea, Burgoyne, and Pearce).

Our only possible wins to finish the year will be against Richmond and Fremantle. Let's hope one of them turns up on the day and we finish on 4 wins.

Your opinion, BUT there is no way MFC will trade Brock Mclean.

Very good player who will have a great season next year when he has a full pre-season. His clearance stats this year have been very impressive.

Possible future captain and works well in the media. He has shown his commitment to MFC with his generous donation to the club.

Lets no forget Brock is still young and is a few years off his best footy. Patience please.

Since i saw Brock's debut against Freo at Subi in 2004,he has played less than 10 outstanding games and i mean OUTSTANDING,he's been mostly average at best.He doesn't work hard enough between contests when he doesn't have the ball.In the next few weeks,let's see how long he can run with Cousins and Judd,that's how hard the top mids work,he wouldn't keep up and Cousins is 6 years older.

Yes,he's been injured a lot but is he much worth to us with the amount of time he's fully fit.

And captaincy,forget it.Others have had much better seasons in the last 6 years since Brock's debut.

You don't reward mediocrity.Anyone who knows anything about AFL will tell you Brock has has 6 mediocre seasons at best as well as many off field indescretions.

Brock was fantastic in 2006. So many games he was influential in the midfield and was able to kick a couple a game.

Then in round 1 2007 after a solid opening qtr he did his ankle.

I have no doubt injuries have curtailed his career at the moment.

Needs to play well against good teams, not just against crap interstate teams at the G.

We don't need him now or in the future.Soon our midfield will consist of:

Possibly 2 of Scully,Trengove or Morabito and

Blease

Jones

Sylvia

Grimes

Jetta...recruited as a mid and will get his chance

Strauss

And Davey,Green and Bruce can rotate through there.

Trade Brock while we can get something for him.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    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
