Our passengers are weighing us down.

Can't wait for that broom..

Well passengers tonight were

Watts, Trengove, Sellar and at times Grimes decision making and execution cost is dearly.

Happy for the broom to sweep them out?

I try to care about everyone's opinion. Morton's soft, there's no denying that. But he played well tonight, which was better than last week, which was better than the week before. As long as I can say that about him every week, I'll be happy.

I actually really loved his last quarter last week, and was hoping that was the penny dropping. Guess it may be a slower process. Definitely played better than what I would normally expect, just waiting for the day when he knows when to go in hard and when to hang outside.

I get your point, maybe I am marking him harder, or maybe other people are forgetting we took him with pick 4? We've just been so beaten down as supporters that our expectations are really low I think.

I hear you but reality is we need to continue to put everything we have into supporting him. If we don't we effectively let that pick 4 go for nothing. I personally think we are seen Morton progress under Neeld.

I can forgive developing players my ire is usually set on one or two. I think people know who I think needs to go. I actually think Morton was ok tonight and that's big for me.

We NEED another small forward BAAAAD!

How good was Jonesy and McKenzie! Tommy Mac.. I see a lot of positives tonight, not all doom and gloom. But I'm always upset after a loss, weekend ruined!

The fact that our worst players tonight are our three most promising young players (plus Sellar), is either very worrying or extremely good for us, depending on the way you look at it. It could be a sign that they're not developing properly, or it could simply be the worst night of the careers of three fantastic young players (plus Sellar) to come.

Couldn't agree more..we share the same view...

My point to sloonie was relax we actually stood up tonight. Take heart...

I thought Morton was ok in conditions that don't suit him, he gave us a bit of run that has been missing and he did get involved with some good tackles.

Tommy Mc did the job tonight, I thought he probably should and would have been dropped but by playing him the selectors showed some faith that we here often don't. Get more games into him and Morton and the like and these guys may reach their potential and become the players we want them to be.

Totally agree BIG positives tonight. Love the games of all you mentioned as well as Magner and Bail.

Would serve him right. Hopefully he's banned cause we don't need that kind of rubbish here. There's enough angst floating about.

I think Morton did enough to deserve a recall. Watts however needs to have a hard look at himself cause frankly he was [censored] poor tonight.

Really missed Clark tonight. Good effort but still no chocs

Disagree. Was not a night for the big guys so he would have been a liability.

Subbing Dunn off instead of Sellar was a bad move. Happy with Morton's effort.

I was [censored] off with Tom Mac's really lazy efforts. Got sucked in at times when St Kilda got the overlap, left Roo on his own close to goal.

I had a knot in my gut all night. We won the footy, had more possessions, covered Goddard and Riewodt, and ran out of the backline with gut running but we made some unpressured turnovers or mistakes that tore the heart out of the game and must have taken a toll eventually:

Moloney's open goal miss

Howe's set shot miss

Jordie's running free kick straight to the Saints = goal

Trengove playing on so stupidly

Rivers and Bate booming kicks into our forward line to three-on-one

But I loved the effort, the discipline, and the sense of mongrel.

Sorry I'm not coming out to waste my time to meet a fat guy who sits behind a phone posting slander to other supporters. You are a no one. Just a pea hearted sook who is an ungracious loser. I feel sorry for you. Good luck having a tea party with your new best friend Joffa.

Bit harsh on Tom Mac? He is playing his 6th game on a match winner? Yes he was a liability early but after first qtr he was excellent.

Are you a lonely person with no friends? You certainly won't get any with the angry attitude pal.

Is there any way you can delete the large in number but from few contributors personal jibes and attacks from this otherwise constructive thread?

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
