I know Davis is not a great kick, which is a pity because I think he has some ability and can play at either end of the ground.

It will be interesting to see how the new coach evaluates him.

    Watch Davis at training R & B IMO he is no better then than on game day.

    Fair point -- I haven't been to training for longer than I care to admit ... :wacko:

    I think his contract is up this year Redleg for a player that will have been on the list for three years with a team that cannot beat time with a stick and still cannot get one game it does not look good.

    He will probably get little thought or attention.

    Sad but I think his gone!

    It has to be his farewell game against his old side.

    Not sure he is good enough to make the Casey side.

    Would like to see Taggart and Tynan get a run before the season ends. They both need the experience and the encouragement to strive harder.

    Broad is following in the family footsteps. His father chris broad, refused to leave the wicket after being given out, in a match in the mid eighties. Graham Gooch had to walk down the pitch and tell him to leave.

    Given the obvious dismissal, young Broad's performance was extremely poor. It is one thing on LBW's and disputed catches, to wait for the umpire, but when you know you are clearly out, you don't cheat. His performance was pathetic.

    Sadly it looks like the Poms will win this test, unless we bat brilliantly in the 2nd innings.

    We are being showed up today by a strong skilful great wet weather side at their home ground.

    Not playing Rodan in these conditions was a big mistake.

    Another Monday not much different to many over the last two years.

    Only 68 points on Saturday

    Two years ago 186 occurred to this day we still do not know the details.

    And whatever they were they may well be the root cause of where we sit today.

    It still amazes me that a group of players with way more ability than the current group could get beaten so badly.

    It's easy when you don't try.

    Not enough credit given to Mark Neeld for engineering such a dramatic turn around in form after the cataclysm that was 186.

    Perhaps we could forward a letter of thanks.

    Along with the cheque for pay out of his contract?

    Then he will be waiting for a year for his letter.

    Add Uni Black drew, kicked themselves out of it.

    But my old home town got up.

    God I am grasping at straws

    Oh well, we haven't lost in Dawin for at least a year.

    Uni Blacks need a speedy midfielder ,who kicks himself out of it, like Dan Nicholson perhaps?

    Only fair really .

    I really hope we don't decimate the Casey side like we have for the last couple of years. They deserve some success for their efforts.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
