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

Watts is going to be a superstar - having another great game. All of you who constantly bag him, get stuffed. Garland up forward is good too. I'm loving this game - c'mon Dees!!

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

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

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.)

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

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.

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

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

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

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..."

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.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    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
