... or our delivery to the forward line.

Yes, more to the point. Our F50 entries have been much more hopeful than planned. Please don't take this as defending Newton either.

Loving Jack Watts' game. You can see his confidence rising as a player. Getting a bit of a strut up and taking blokes on. Go Jack!

On the other hand, Aaron Davey is less than a shadow of the player he once was. Looks timid and uncertain. Career in the balance and should get the axe on present form regardless of the big bucks he's on.

Jordan Gysberts very impressive.

Wonder if we can trade Davey, seems to have lost any real value being out there in red and blue.

What was that Aaron about no one giving less than a 100% ??? Hmmm ?

A shadow of his former brilliance.

Seems ability runs inversely to paycheck :rolleyes:

This team is going to be the death of me.

Fair to say that Juice is no best 22 material, although that doesn't [censored] me off nearly as much as Davey's and Jurrah's laziness.

Evans has done some good things and McKenzie's sheer presence makes us tougher.

Watts and Gysberts my shinning lights.

Same as Goddard. Both player's will bounce back. Flash will surely lift in the second half of the season.

Just watching the game delayed on TV now. Around 4.45 left in the first quarter, Watts puts on the speed and slips between two Saints players closing in. Other players (especially at his height) wouldn't have been able to do that. Love it !

Charlie Watts is a beauty...he now believes it at top level.

Showing leadership qualities today.

Don't know what his currency would be but I think he's cooked as a Melbourne player.

I'd trade him.

i would give him 1-2 games at Casey first. See if that "wakes" him up. But we cannot have senior players in the side as passengers.

Notwithstanding the pathetic efforts of Davey and Newtown, this has been a promising effort thus far.

Jordan Gysberts makes me smile. Michael Evans looks to have a lot to work with.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
