Jones - quiet until injured

Jurrah - thrilling and composed

MacDonald - continued his renaissance

McDonald - out in style

Moloney - gave his heart

Morton - disappointing despite ability

Rivers - showed his class

Scully - great despite errors

Sylvia - exciting when motivated

Trengove - just a game

Jones - quiet until injured - Just beaten by a champion. No disgrace there.

Trengove - just a game - Thought he did some very nice things. 1%er sort of stuff.

Wonaeamirri - needed more involvement - Needed more ball. His chasing was very, very good and caused some panic.

Newton - failed last chance - Did he play? A waste of a selection.

Scully's ability to run out games to the very end of the season in his first year spells trouble for our future opposition once he irons out the flaws in the his game and builds up a bit more bulk. The midfield was where this game was decided and its where we still need a lot of work, especially at the stoppages. (injuries to key players hurt us here - Davey, Moloney. McDonald at different times this year). I agree with Bailey that apart from a few additional players (e.g. marking forward target) we have the core of a potent attach and strong defence and have the elements to build an awesome midfield, but this will perhaps take a little bit longer for these guys to learn the ins and outs of the midfield and to work as a unit.

Scott - Youth excitement envy?

Does this guy have to whinge at every media interview that his young players don't get talked up in the media? They really are in desperate need of some excitement thats for sure if they are to survive as a club. Great to know for once we at least have the off field component well and truly sorted and just need to ensure we keep kicking goals on the field, literally and figuratively... :)

Is the fact they play a relatively boring chocking zone that the players get lost in the confusion or that they are overlooked because they still rely on the same old heads to get them through?

Jamar - a tired game

Pretty much with you 100% apart from these two. Green was good, but despite his return I think he could have been better today. Few dud kicks that you would not usually expect. Jamar, was tired, we've ridden him all year, but he smashed it in the hit outs so that seems a harsh assessment to me.

He is a [censored] and his club is a [censored]. "Stop talking about them! Look at me!" Should have gone to the Gold Coast with it's seven supporters.

Where are those White Knights Brayshaw?

I've never been one for putting the boot into a struggling club but when they keep putting the boot into mine they can just [censored] off and die.

Morton's game reminded me of a game against the Bulldogs at Telstra Dome a year or two ago when he had about 30 possessions and turned it over 29 times.

totally agree...."butcher" morton

Watts - took it on

I think Watts lacks confidence to take the game on - to have shots for outside 50 to run with the ball when clear - the confidence will come.

Brad Scott is an A-grade [censored].

Instead of focusing on his club, he was all over making comparisons between our clubs.

Just focus on surviving in Victoria and STFU. We don't need you to worry about us and how we're developing.

What did he say? Was this in his press conference? I know the Norf supporters are annoyed at the media for loving our young players, but I didn't know Scott was whinging also.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
