Sorry to spoil the party but he was terrible last night. Many turnovers and runs around like a headless chook! May be the last we see of him at senior level for a while.

He struggled last night, but I'd be surprised and disappointed if he lost his spot in the side for it. I'm all for omitting players when their effort is not up to scratch, but that's not true in this case and I am dead against dropping young players for making mistakes. Chalk that one up to experience and give him the chance to do better next game.

 

I'll be thinking "Digby" now everytime he has the pill.

If he has the same passion to train with two teams on the one night, then continue practising himself - like Nicho, your wife might need to investigate further. :P

Hmmm. I would like to investigate if your missus has come across Nicho's dad at any point...

They then found out a few days before the rookies draft that he wasn't nominated!! Serious oversight. Took Kayler-Thompson instead.

Whose responsibility is it to ensure that a player has been nominated for the rookie draft? I always assumed the players just nominated themselves, so it's a bit of a boo-boo if he forgot to nominate himself. That'd be like me turning up for a job interview and saying "whoops, I forgot to apply for the job".

  • 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.
