    - Moloney to get up for this weekend for sure. Was "50/50" two weeks in a row!! Shouldn't spend 3 weeks on the sidelines with a corked thigh...

    - Great to see Grimes only 1-2 weeks away! Could play the final 2 games of the year which will both be VERY important games if we beat Richmond.

    - Wrap Gys up for the year and get him a full pre-season.

    Can you imagine if McMahon did play? He'd get a standing ovation by the MFC supporters every time he went to the bench.

    More than just when he went to the bench, every time he kicked the ball we should applaud him as i'm sure we would get flashbacks of last season and that beautiful goal on the siren to give us picks no.1 and no.2. Stynes should present him with an honourary Melbourne jumper to acknowledge his contribution to our club.

    And for those who wish to recall that memorable day.... here's a link to the video:

    KOTD!!!

    That mark was taken a good 3 seconds after the siren too.

    God bless Jordan McMahon :wub:

    I would love to see the Punt Rd end renamed the "Jordan McMahon end" for Sunday.

    A banner the width of the goals (behind the goals) would do it.

    It would be even funnier if Richmond were to be the more successful club of the two by the end of

    the decade.

    And everyone would be laughing at the smug Melbourne supporters hanging [censored] on a player who won

    a game for his team off his own boot after the siren.

    I hear you stmj.

    Good! (cause initially I was sensing sarcasm!)

    I am more than joyous about or abundance of young draftees, but I do think it's pretty ridiculous hanging it all on Jordan.

    Footy is about winning games, and those games are pretty rare and special. Quite sad really when you think about it.

    Interested in what the list looks like this week!

    Last week a few blew out, it will tell us if we will see Grimes again this year.

    Only 2 more Casey games left so if he is not back to play with Casey on 22/8

    we will not see him again this year which will be disappointing!

    I spoke to him on Satuday morning at training, said he was nearly ready to go (a weeks training), hoping to maybe get a game at Casey this coming weekend

    He was on the TAC Show on Sunday and Hutchy mentioned that he was out for one more week so hopefully, he'll be down as "test" on tonight's injury list.

    Has anyone noticed we have the most injury prone rookies ever.

    Newton, Meesan, Hughes, Healy and Spenser have all missed practically the entire season with injury.

    If i were in charge, i'd delist the entire rookie list, except Spenser who'd i'd try to keep on the rookie list (might have to re-rookie him?)

  • Quote

    (... and obviously ungrade McKenzie).

    Opening up spots on the rookie list could see us able to draft a further 4-5 speculative rookies next year. Might unearth another Barlow?

    • 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.
