Joeboy thanks for your efforts during the year, your comments create a lot of discussion and you're on a hiding to nothing. I think we found out when you were away that the three word analysis is not easy to do.

Well done and I hope you're up for it again next year.

BTW I reckon you finished on a high!

Thought the Wheatley "super goal" was a nice touch. I also thought when he was doing the kickins, he was kicking it in to the centre square just to humour the fans rather than for any tactical reason. It made me smile anyway. IMO he played a very good game considering he was on one leg and straight out of not playing for the Casey twos for a few weeks.

Wheels and Robbo had last games to forget, but who cares? It was fantastic that they were both out there. Especially for Wheels that he was able to fall across the line for 150.

Sylvia, Frawley (Riewoldt bag notwithstanding), Morton, Jamar all fantastic. Jeez I can't wait for next year.

Thought Bartrams game was worthy of more than than the 'a solid game' comment especially against the top of the ladder team.

Thanks Joeboy - always enjoy reading the comments.

Bartram's game was good, but he let himself down with some silly handballs into traffic. Seems to lack a radar as to where he is in relation to teammates and opposition players.

Thing about Jetta and Bennell is that they certainly find themselves around the ball often enough, but are simply disposed of too easily by opponents. Need to work on core strength over the off-season.

Rivers - strange everyone thought he was back near his best, I would disagree, he frustrated me yesterday and I thought he was beaten several times.

Jamar - would be one of the best contested mark's getting around.

I definitley thought he ( Rivers ) was a lot closer to his old self as compared some of the woefull outings of recent times. He ISNT his former self, but was better. Id still trade him though.

Posted

trading him might be going to extreme's I could think of many names you would trade before him. I just hope he gets a good injury free preseason in and is ready for 2010. For those that think he was anywhere near his former self don't have a very good memory, however yes he probably was better then other times throughout the year.

Once again, your hatred of McLean is staggering :lol:;)

either youre on drugs.. youve got the wrong bloke..you espied condemned's response to Joey or just incpable of lucid thinking. Might be all.

Where do I hate McLean ?? You were at the same game I take it ?? He certainly wasnt amongst our best but thought he did some good things.

Care to explain..can you

Sylvia - better earlier, handy

I was at a mates house and needed to use the toilet. Nearing the end of doing the buissness i realized there was no toilet paper in the holder. For a fleeting moment i thought the worst as I searched the room for another roll. I had nearly given up when i found a fresh one hiding behind the toilet. I thought to my self, gee thats pretty HANDY.

Cant belive you have ranked our best player of the day along side the softness of a two ply kleenex toliet tissue

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
