How true it is. The first game when he's looked like he's given a genuine toss and we look infinitely better.

Saw the Jamar/Moloney connection for the first time for the season tonight, hope it's on the way back

 

The silence surrounding Sellar's improved showing is almost deafening; not to mention that of Morton.

doesn't the media make you want to vomit - we are in front at half time and Watts has a few touches, instantly they turn from labelling him a soft spud and a wasted no.1 pick to praising him, even though he had exactly the same game 2 weeks ago and nobody said boo

dheads

carn dees, look what a little effort and heart can do
 

COME ON DEES>>>>>>BRING ON THE UPSET OF THE YEAR>>>>>IN ALL CODES!!

Really? Don't think either has done so much that I'd be calling that yet... They haven't been bad, and Sellar's desperation has been good, but really don't think either has done enough yet that you can tell people to shut up about them


Loving the effort and intensity tonight. Starting to run and spread too. Another half like that and I will be happy. A win would be a plus.
 

The TV commentary referred to a change in Neeld's game plan - players playing naturally - I didn't hear all of the comments - can anyone please explain? (I did, of course, see the play, but screen vision is limited.)

Sorry, who was just talking up Morton....?

That goal was his fault, too soft and indecisive with the ball

Excuse me? I was telling people to shut up? Hmmm.

you were saying how quiet everyone has been about them, and that's cos they haven't done that much yet

Intensity inside defensive 50 has gone missing, no one willing to tackle

Blease sore from that earlier contest, probably a corky

Sellar has been very reliable in defence and Morton, despite one mistake has been getting involved...take off the blinkers for Christ sake! And I would have thought the use of the words "silence is deafening" might have given away hat I was suggesting the opposite to shutting up.

I think they said groin on the radio

Love how posters here pick out one moment and use it to say that player has been awful all game...

Sylvia has been ok, not good, but ok, the effort has been there at least and he's looking hungry for a change

OK, I'll give you a few examples.

Twice I counted he gave up on his man in our forward 50 and they went inside 50 as a result. Blazed away a few times too.

Lifted this half however.

No blinkers mate, both have made an effort, but hardly good enough to shut up the critics yet

Pop quiz... Who said the following:

"Love how posters here pick out one moment and use it to say that player has been awful all game..."


Not playing to badly, but need to put it on the scoreboard. Can't afford to keep missing opportunities.

I wasn't suggesting any such thing...I was suggesting that those who are willing to criticism for the most innocuous of mistakes remain silent whenever they do something worthwhile.

haha fair enough mate, I'll cop that. Only said he cost us a goal though, didn't say he was having an awful game.

yes, but you were talking up guys who haven't done that much yet

  • 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.
