Just spoke to Doggy at lunchtime. He is in fine nick and usual good humour.

Has 3 pups now - all boys so father & son prospects in a few years!

He says he may be going to play with Yze and Robbo up at Shepp this year - for the MFC Old Boys!!!

    Was a very good Melbourne man and a nice bloke to boot. His bravery on the field was sensational. I wish him luck for the future.

    I was lucky enough to sponsor Nathan for abour 3 or 4 years, great person and wonderful ambassador for the club. I've still got a couple of bottles of red wine with his photo on it, lol. I've been meaning to try to get in contact with him and pass them on

    I trust that someone other than Doggy is teaching those little tackers how to kick!

    I'll never forget his first game against Carlton at Optus Oval in 1998. What a debut! Pity injury ruined the next two seasons for him.

    Yeah. Back then, from memory, it seemed like just about every time he ran out on the park for us, he'd be injured by game's end. But, wow, while he was out there he gave us plenty to get excited about. The guy's enthusiasm couldn't be faulted. Fear was that he'd end up getting himself killed, the way he threw himself into the fray with reckless abandon. Had to love him!

    Can't say I was ever too envious of his ice bath routine, either! lol

    I too have fantastic memories of that first game. It was a game that will forever be remembered. Saw doggie at the "G" last year with 2 of his boys. :lol:

    Yeah it was a good look!

    He was a fantastic player and very courageous.

    Shame about his kicking though. :wacko:

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
