Davis is a poor decision maker and miskicks too often for my liking. Against Bendigo he kicked it to opposition forwards 5 times. In another game (can't remember which) his handballs resulted in 3 opposition goals. Delist for mine.

Mind you, he was going through a bad patch at the time. His major crime seems to have been that he played his worst game in a televised match.

Davis has shown some good signs and I really thought he might be given a chance at senior level by now. I'd hate to see him discarded even if it means delisting and keeping him as a rookie for another year.

    I like Troy Davis and will be really [censored] off if they delist him. He's courageous, has good pace, and a competitive streak. Rivers isn't getting any younger and I think a spot will open up for Davis. He's 192cm's with a strong body. Glass is 192cm's and Ben Rutten only 190cm's, but he does way 100kgs.

    Craig Bolton played less than 30 games for Brisbane and left because of Leppitsch and Mal Michael. He went to Sydney and ended up AA, as well as captaining the club. It's the same with Ted Richards. Players need an opportunity and I'd love to see Davis play the last game of the year. If Davis is delisted I reckon he'll be snapped up very quickly.

    Chris Dawes is no natural footballer so could be some merit in this

    How lucky are we, we didn't get him last year instead of Mitch Clark. Sounded like we were going to offer him much more than Clark too. MFC have had a few trading coups the past few years through no choice of their own.

    • 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.
