Thanks for your efforts Eth

No problem. Now if only my team put in some effort as well...

(1000th post. :D)

 

I just knew you'd trot out the Dean Cox - I told you so thing - and you're dead right!

Haha. You've had some decent scores RM of late, looks as though your average has increased over the last few rounds. Very good. You'll be hard to beat.

Well done eth38, appreciate the effort. Got your reply re: Jordie; I'll re-evaluate. - You realise I gave up Simpson for McKernan.... ;)

It literally shows how injury, form and suspension can stuff everything

 

FB: J. Surjan (Port) N. Grima (NM) S. Hurn (WCE) - out of form, injured, dominating

HB: J. Kelly (Geel) L. McPharlin (Fre) J. Adcock (Bris) - all it top form

C: D. Thomas (Coll) S. Thompson (Adel) S. Hill (Fre) - Pretty happy with this

HF: M. Morton (Rich) L. Henderson (Carl) D. Swallow (GC) - Morton's quit, Henderson in the VFL, Swallow's good!

FF: A. Monfries (Ess) L. Franklin (Haw) A. Schneider (StK) - Buddy!!! Schneider and Monfries disappointing

R: M. Jamar (Melb) J.P. Kennedy (Syd) R. Griffen (WB) - Big Rush injured, happy with the other 2

Happy with the midfield. The rise of Daisy probably helps.

Not sure what I was thinking with Morton, but I still believe with a clear head the guy is a massive talent. Should have gone with Nahas! I think I really let myself down by not getting in some better players from weaker clubs (namely Port and Richmond).

You did?

Well, if you're preparing to offer way more than you should, maybe deals can be done ;)

Yes. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and Dappa scored. McKernan lit it up early days...I think our team knocked the confidence out of him at the G. A win for Dappa.

Well done eth38...keep it up. :)

Roger Mellie in fine form.

RR, when drafting one of my own rules I used was buyer beware..ie Fevola, etc so too for the injury prone footballers and weighing up other factors regarding form ie Dean Cox.

Just a reminder Cox was the last bloke picked...and over at UF he won the MVP for 2011 Demonland. What a pick up....

Yep, I drafted the injury prone. You'll see my Round 12 score soon, I had half a team...

And nice work on Cox.

hehe...you picked a few winners here RR.

This is a great concept btw.


I'm an idiot for having Fyfe written down as my first choice from Freo, then selecting Palmer 2 rounds before Fyfe went because I thought I could use an extra mid instead.

The kid is a star.

Actually looking back and thinking about my perception of certain players pre-season, and then comparing that to how I view them now, is an interesting exercise.

It's fair to say my view has changed quite a bit over 20 rounds.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
