    I bet i am not alone in being surprised that Clint was selected as part of the leadership group

    he has flaws and kicking being the most obvious one

    Neeld would have to have plans for him to tag as he is effective at that

    Can get his own ball

    He is tenacious and gives 100% and to me that is a major part of Neelds contested possesion coaching philosphy

    I wouldnt expect him not to be in our best 22

    where he plays is what is intriguing though

    If he gets better at Kicking to position then he will become important

    According to this interview with Cale Morton - http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7415/newsid/135366/default.aspx - Bartram is carrying a kneee injury and struggling to get up each week.

    "he’s going through a lot with his knee injury at the moment. It’s a challenge for him to get up each week. "

    Aside from the obvious concern about CB's injury, I'm a bit surprised that the club / Matt Burgan has not edited this info out the interview - do we really need to telegraph who's playing with a niggle / not at full strength

    I've had info on Bartram from 4 years ago that his knee was shot and he'd have to retire soon.

    He has been able to manage the injury, but it is not a heavily guarded secret.

    Blokes I knew playing VFL were well aware of it too.

    Just in the right spot at the right time, and his disposal was smart, took the right option and played within his limitations!

    • 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.
