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!

Redleg, Byrnes is still in the side

How?

Why?

Somethings in life I will never understand

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.

I was totally Agar-st :rolleyes:

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.

Another good sporting weekend for me. Dees smashed, Casey smashed, Australia beaten.

Add Uni Black drew, kicked themselves out of it.

But my old home town got up.

God I am grasping at straws

Posted

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

A couple weeks ago i thought we might have a chance against the Lions but they way they have played the last couple of weeks i would say we have no show

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.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
