Greeny's a classy guy. His twitter reactions speak for themselves:

"Thank's for the msg's. I have the utmost respect for Neeldy, we always have open and honest discussions.The reason I am not picked is form."

"Get behind the boys on Sat, I want to see a huge demon crowd at the MCG... I will be doing everything I can to get back in the side...."

Hopefully he can recapture some of his form from 2010. There's a reason we were all clamouring for him to be given the captaincy at the end of that year.

He is a class person Brad. That is never in question.

I thought the same about Simon Godfrey tooo....

Bottom line is that Joel Mac is not good enough and turning the ball over is a death knell for a player.

Not all of Joel's turnovers convert to a goal, and regardless, I don't think he is the reason for us losing by 100+ points.

Tough ask now for Greeny, this is now about his character and attitude. I hope for his sake that he can work is butt off and return to the senior side, and get to play a good amount of games in what would appear to be his final season. He has been a great clubman, a great footballer for the MFC, and while there are no passengers, he deserves to leave the game with integrity, and I'm sure Neeld & Co are of the same opinion.

PREVIEW: Richmond
PREVIEW: Richmond

Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
