...maybe try reposting when you've calmed down little

I only made a few harsh comments at the top.

Brad Green is hard to watch. Even player reasonably well today he inspires nothing.

Jones is limited. He has limited speed, limited vision and limited skill. He continues to turn the ball over by hand for no apparent reason, especially as he's demonstrated a good kicking ability. I love him for trying, but his decision making gets found out so badly by top teams.

Watts' game was both mentally and physically soft. He wasn't up against any sort of quality tall defender and allowed himself to be taken out of the game at CHF. He needs to prove he can do something at CHF to make himself a presence even when having a bad day.

I was harsh on Bate, but find me someone who disagrees. Let's play Cook or McDonald next time we run out of players.

Yeah right. Because we play the ball so well thru CHF.

    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

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.
