Geez, we're a highly negative bunch. Grab a knife and a fork and start eating our own.

No. Watch the final series closely. Get better and stronger or die.

    Gysberts wont get picked up by the Hawks,

    Its a mystery why Cam did but I bet he's glad he wasnt out there in the first quarter.

    I was in the stand and it was scarey.

    Imagine Jack Watts out there.

    Jack Watts should spend the summer watching Adam Goodes at work.

    He could be that good if he really wanted to get there.

    Unfortunately, AFL footy will always be too hot for Jack Watts.

    Opinion.

    But, I want go on with it, it's not a Watts thread.

    Fair enough mate. Didn't mean to jump down your throat BTW.

    The title of the thread should begin "Herald-Sun Falsely reports Gysberts" etc.

    I'm sick of the media trying to tear us apart .

    they get it wrong so often and still keep a job .

    Biffen, keep your humour intact - you and I both know that the old 'played AFL footy, have ya?' is tired and simplistic.

    You didn't stuie, no worries. I love talking footy with you.

    Not really-in my limited experience I'd rather have a guy like Watts on the team than not.

    Anyhow-jokes are fine but Watts jokes on here are tired and simplistic also.

    I'm not joking about Watts - but it's not the appropriate thread.

    Can you honestly see Cook playing in September on the MCG?

    Is he a big lad?

    I don't think that Neeld will recruit waifs...

    Nope. Compared to last nights game, battlers.

    Mitch Clark attacks the contest with authority. There is a huge if subtle difference.

    Mitch Clarke yes, but is it Nature or Nurture.

    Is it Mitch himself or did he learn the Leigh Matthews/Brisbane Lions attitudes, or is it a combination of the Matthews attitudes + recruiting a young Clarke who has a Zeal for the 'Contest', in the first place.

    If it started with Clarkes 'Nature' before drafting,,,, how much is it then, the Environment of nurturing this combative personality thru a healthy Club Environment, which Encourages it's boys to play 'Rough', without fear of silent condemnation from within some sectors of the support base???

    Gysberts isn't perfect, but he clearly has talent.

    I am more than happy to get rid of players who have been in the system for ages and failed, but Gysberts has plenty of time on his side and with glimpses of usable talent, it would be a lazy and soft option to get rid of him.

    Neeld has to back himself to make something of these sorts of kids, otherwise what sort of coach is he?

    The kind that realizes it's much easier to find people with the right attitude than make them.

    • 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.
