    We need to put some pressure on the selectors to pick realistic sides to wear the Demons jumper.

    If you want a reply from someone in particular you might want to try the PM function.

    Team selection is not the panacea for our ills.

    Fwiw, I think our selections have been decent. You might quibble, but you're essentially arguing about who our 21st or 22nd (fit) players are.

    I disagree.

    We need to put a more physically strong side on the park, at least until we get some MOJO going.

    I don't know how things are between assistant coaches, but I'd like to think Our current coach is not being hung out, by the rest of the selectors, for some other agenda. There's ben a lot of talk about coaches, and Not giving your coach the players he wants is an easy way to discredit him.

    That's why I want to know who the selectors are.

    It's never been a secret before, that they're the 'Invisable Men'.

    It doesn't matter who's on the committee, anyone who's on it will just be the advisors and Dean will have the final say. This isn't the Australian Cricket team, there's one guy in charge who lives and dies by the team's on field position, so will have the final say in selection.

    No, I don't know for a fact that Dean has the ultimate right of veto, but it's an absolute joke if he doesn't.

    I don't think so nash, In ther old days the selectors all had a vote on who made the team, Inc' the coach.

    I can't believe bailey would put his neck in the Noose, by playing such a slight and whimpish side against the more robust teams. Yes we need games into them, and I'm one of the biggest pushers of the Youth policy. But letting them go in with no physical size & lacking leadereship and direction is a recipe to get rid of the Coach.

    Are you saying Bailey wants a payout. I don't think so. So the selections are a quandry. It almost feels he's being directed to coach a kindergarten team. OK against the Suns, but not against the Hawks or the Pies/ Eagles/ Cats!!!

    • 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.
