    From all reports I've heard, Green did not play well on the weekend in the VFL. Can someone please explain to me how this puts him in the mix?

    I doubt they would come out and say to the media he had a shocker and is no chance.

    Consider the following

    We did not set the world on fire without him

    He is a past Captain

    He is in his final year

    It is the Stynes memorial match, he knew big Jim well

    Brad has given good service to the MFC over a long period

    It is not as though he is keeping a good junior out of a game

    He will pay on Saturday because the MFC will not make the same mistake they made with Junior.

    Maturity & concentration, unfortunately, we need to stop the 3rd Qtr bleeding. and late in Qtrs bleeding. this is the trade off for youth over maturity.

    If we were playing the old man on man stuff we could probably play more youth and get away with it, but with the flood &zones defensive stuff, you've got to be switched on or your shot.

    This IMO is why we should revert to a 2 inter + 2 Sub: (2 avail from gamestart, reducing to 1after half time) + 1 Emerg', for Hospital cases.

    • 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.
