    Not quite true --- we wore the red and blue in the win against Richmond. However, the other three have all come in the white abomination ... :blink:

    FWIW I thought it was good step to wear the red and blue against the dogs, rather than the white that we sometimes have in the past. However, if I had known the white would make us win ... :)

    I think you know I am being very light heart on this subject.

    I don't want to play in anything but the traditional Red and Blue ( ie Red not Maroon, Pink or Orange )

    I guess I am getting worn down but I actually don't mind the current away jumper.

    All in good fun, OD. I will say that the current design is growing on me, and there a lot of worse ones out there. However, the predominant white does tend to stick in my (magpie-hating) craw ... :)

    He said Chip had one very good skill, which is judging the flight of the ball in the air and getting to the right spot to mark or spoil. However, he said he was an awful decision-maker and an awful kick of the footy, with plenty of evidence from Sunday's game on offer. I thought he was balanced, in that he said the elite-level skill that Chip has is worth something, but probably not the figures being talked about in the media, and that anyone wanting him would need to "be aware" of his limitations.

    Not sure why but I am finding it hard to attached comments to the original at present.

    However R and B I think his comments sound fairly accurate.

    I am all for keeping JF but not at any price.

    I have confidence in this management team to make the right decision.

    I would prefer he stays but we now live in the brave new world of free agency so it is more than likely he will go.

    If he does I bear him no ill will he has IMO given his best to the MFC during a very poor period in our history.

    dont care either way.

    but he has been a fat lazy turd who only runs when he feels like it{over last 6 years]

    I am amazed at the credit this bloke gets,col has finally gone and i see JF as the end of the lazy we get paid and are AFL players type at our club.

    While on Liam Jones, Chip did well, keeping him kickless. However he was also on Bontempelli when he kicked the 2 matchwinners. In the first he let him run free. In the second he let a first year player strip him of the ball twice, then went to ground and stayed there while the winning goal was kicked. It was nothing less than a pathetic effort from an experienced big bodied defender.

    He unfortunately turns the ball over often. He is a poor user of the ball and finds it hard to give off quick accurate passes.

    Chip now gives off the appearance that he is playing out time with us and actually couldn't give a stuff about the result. I have seen him jog after an opponent countless times this year.

    • 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.
