    Really?

    You know, this is supposed to be a forum where people can express their opinions on football matters but if you don't like a particular footballer, commentator or any personality associated with the game, why not give us all your reasons instead of mounting ad hominem attacks.

    Taylor usually supports his opinions with reasons and even if you don't agree with them, the fact that he gives his justifications, allows you to debate his views. To call someone "brainless" without providing reasons says more about you than it does about Taylor.

    If you reckon he's harsh on the Melbourne Football Club just think that the club can answer its detractors by the way it performs on the field. It's amazing how few the criticisms are of the MFC when the boys perform like they did for most of the game against one of Taylor's former teams in Collingwood.

    I don't mind him except, imo, he's a poor caller due to the constant mistakes he makes. With monotonous regularity he incorrectly identifies the player with the ball. He also makes interpretation errors. Yesterday he stated that a West Coast player "threw" the ball when in fact he knocked it on with a clenched fist. This type of example happens every game.

    He's overrated in media circles.

    I'm a fan of the bristle....he says it how he says it without jumping on bandwagons of others opinions. He is as harsh on us as he is anyone that is not traveling too well, be it admin for football team.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
