Jones - confident and strong

Jurrah - thrilling in bursts

McDonald - tough and uncompromising

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
