I have really liked the games of Nathan Jones, Jack Watts, Jared Rivers, Jack Grimes, Mitch Clark, James Frawley and lately Sam Blease and Jeremy Howe. I hope to add to the list this time next year.

Howe, Jones and Clark.

Of late, Grimes, Blease.

Watts and Tommy Mc also get a pass.

Tapscott will be the most improved next year.

Mark Neeld with a special mention to Nathan Jones. Jonesy took on the new challenge the same way Beamer didn't.

Calling of a time trial..i wonder who that was?

Who led that charge?

LOL.

You were bagging the shizen out of Neeld a month or two ago. Now he's impressed you.

At least you're remaining consistent, WYL.

Mitch Clark has been the standout. Not only on the scoreboard but his attack on the footy and attitude. If only the rest of the list had a crack like he has. Tommy Mac has shone in a crappy year and will only get better. Blease is only going to get better and Howe flying every game shows that not all is bad.

Crack in and have a crack?

Fair crack.

Intimate knowledge?

For the MFC it would have to be Jonesy, Clark and Howe.

After seeing them in person last night, Pat Dangerfield and Taylor Walker are super impressive, Dangerfield in particular. His size, breakaway speed and strength through the contests is outstanding. The fact that he had a modest possession count didn't matter as pretty much all his kicks were to advantage. I reckon he will be the best player in the league within a couple of years.

A few others have been mentioned, but I want to add Rohan Bail to the list. Massive heart and provides run all day long. Like to see him eliminate some clangers (generally in two categories - clumsy tackling and poor disposal after a long run).

And I'll add my support to Mark Neeld. I see a positive future after many years of darkness because of his holistic approach.

Mine would have to be Lynden Dunn. I've been really impressed with him since he was moved down back and I think he's fulfilling his role nicely.

I also remain very impressed with our new coach, Mark Neeld has won me over for sure.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    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
