I don'tknow if this has been already posted, but I just jumped onto Nathan's website for a bit of gander, and he has written a very moving piece on his Tiwi experience - http://www.nathanjones.com.au/ Tiwi Times.

Our football club does a hell of a lot right these days.

    Yep, Nathan Jones is an outstanding young man- we are very lucky to have someone of his calibre at our club. He represents us like no other; his love of our club and his brothers is infectious.

    Nice read.

    Obviously you're not familiar with professional athletes promoting their own brand.

    It's quite a business savvy and common thing to do.

    It's a great read and made me feel proud to be part of this great club. The MFC is being really innovative with the way it deals with indigenous players, way ahead of the rest. We should all be proud

    haha. I dont see how my lack of actual AFL experience has any baring on my opinion of a website? Do you?

    Maybe I need to take another good look at myself?

    you just let us know when you think Nathan Jones has become a good enough footballer to warrant having a website, you know, when he's as worthy as your bomber friend James Hird. Pathetic.

    Outraged by ingenuity. You may have a closed mind.

    I think Jonesey might just be a little disappointed he didn't get a gig on our new banner for D'Land.

  • Quote

    Ok ok, I get.

    Melbourne players and or 'innovations' shouldn't subject to any criticism. Sorry.

    Probably getting off topic now.

    Anyway, how about those Dees..?

    The Internet's not some ritzy, exclusive medium with rigid criteria. I could have a website of my own, if I wanted; and I haven't done anything more significant than making my own toast for years.

    Baseless criticism? No.

    Showing your true colours and they're not pretty.

    What's wrong with having a URL that is actually self describing? Not self-serving at all and certainly a lot easier to remember.

    i was talking about the demonland poster and his right to post here and go personally slagging off our players with such little reason to do so. Shouldn't be tolerated, this is a public place.

    Isn't that exactly why it should be tolerated?

    Rusty is free to speak his mind, and we are all free to ridicule him for his close-minded views.

    • 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.
