Sylvia has done nothing =(

Well, I guess he won't be playing round 1 then!

Maybe he has the sulks.

 

the only reason i am still listening is that it would be an absolute joy to hear these muppets cry if we happened to pinch this
 

The unwashed booing the umpires.... Why do I choose to live here in Adelaide?? Unfortunately Melbourne don't pay my wage.... Although, maybe they should.... I am more passionate than some who are already on benefits from the MFC


Better quater by Melbourne. Trengove not getting a sniff is just a little concerning, still waiting for him to really dominate a game.

Clearly we have to sack the coach, the conditioning staff, the recruiting manager (sorry, gone already), the captains, vice captains, any players picked anywhere in the top 30 of their draft, the club doctor, receptionist, cleaners et al.

We need a clean start.

Why the stress? It's only a practice match.

It is a practice match for BOTH sides.... One who some claim can really improve and finish near or possible scrape into the eight.... And one who most people around the country believe will finish near the bottom 2....

Which one is which??

Practice match or not.... I played in many a pre-season match during my amatuer career but I didn't leave my testicles in the locker room!

Footy is footy!.... People say we are trying to work on new structures..... That would wash with me if Jones was in the ruck, Jamar was at full back and Frawley was at full forward....

New structures is no excuse for [censored] poor efforts at the pill....

I dare anyone to tell me I am wrong.....

Still waiting for him to get pubes....

The kid is young.... Domination is a ways off....

hehe yeah the seasons miles away, plenty of time to improve....

I know you're trying to be funny, but why waste your time ?

You are old enough to remember premierships.... I have been to 2 floggings on the greatest day of the year.... I want what you have had so I can come on here and tell people to calm down when we are getting flogged by the bottom team :P

At least no one will now bother whinging about the commencement dinner or the lack of an FOJ sponsor -_-


I hope we activate the first round pick after our first pick this year...cause it could be a good one...

Nah it'll be the one after that lol

Wow.... Can't believe we are looking at getting a "Forever Out Jostled" sponsor

When will we take this sport seriously at Melbourne ;)

Our midfield are pretty average. Captain obvious statement but it is even worse than I thought.

It just never gets any better, does it ?

Maybe the ONE and only pre-season drill we should try next year is "Touch" Footy....

 

Goodvibes made an excellent post a week, or so, ago where he succinctly enunciated how 3 or 4 players missing can have a major effect on a team's performance. I know it's bizarre to suggest this, but Magner's injury has really been crucial to our recent fortunes. As most have stated for some time, we have a third world midfield and it's still where games are won and lost. Magner's grunt and ability to get the ball moving our way has been sorely missed.

Clearly the players are trying to adapt to a new game-plan and it's going to take time. I'm not overly perturbed as I have confidence in the end result. But it will test some supporter's resolve.

Best so far Jamar, Jones, Tynan, Bate and prob... Blease. I assume Tynan will loose his spot to Grimes but he has really put his hand up.

Sylvia has done nothing =(

IMO he is the only underdeveloped player picked in this team, but for a reason.

I think we are having a big change with all the 'skilled' playmakers out to HTFU. This Will unbalance us initially.

  • 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.
