Who wrote this article? It seems to have come straight from a dee supporter.

At the start it say's that he is underrated. I disagree. I think the majority of the football world knows that he is an excellent player.

And while it compares his stats to scarletts it doesn't take into account who the direct opponant was. Matty Scarlett was playing on the best forwards. Frawley doesn't always.

I'm looking forward to seeing jack riewoldt vs chip again. Both in good form. I think chip was a bit unlucky the first time around this year.

This article here on the same front page of this

website, in its first sentence calls David Neitz and Garry Lyon Tasmanian. So this is clearly a non-researched fan site where fans can

submit pieces and have their journalistic 15 minutes of fame.

Um...Demon Dave you need to do a bit more research my friend:

Garry Lyon was born in Devonport, Tasmania

David Neitz was born in Ulverstone, Tasmania

I am fairly certain Garry had left Tassie before he was 1 or 2...he actually made mention of this on Triple M's coverage of Port/Pies last night.

Not too sure of Neitz but would suggest he left Tassie at a similar age. I played junior footy against Neita so he has been a Vic since a young kid at least.

Wasn't Chip I'll with a stomach virus, but roughed it out for that match?

Not sure if this is common knowledge.

Frawley generally plays on the best/most dangerous forward. I think he was battling that stomach problem earlier which restricted him a bit. Stats still tell a story thouh. And he's not exactly well known amongst the supporters...yet

Nice work eth,,, but do you have any control over the background,,, a soccer ground???

I don't control the background mate, but it is the World Cup still and it's not just an AFL site

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
