Moloney has a ball & chain around his ankle. Has for years.

We will benefit in his absence. The team can move forward.

Maloney seems to struggle more when his team is having a bad day........will be good to see how we'll the Lions go in 2013 season proper, if Demons finish above Lions then Voss will be in the crosshairs.

Ignore the stats I have watched the game. Typical game where he wins the ball and kicks to no one.

Fair enough. Just don't see why we have to hate on him, gave us some good years, left when it was due etc.

Fair enough Stuie but how influential are those stats.....it's not like the Dogs would say gee Moloney was dangerous more like gee Moloney was average dont u agree? And I don't hate Moloney at all.

I'm not watching the game so I was only going by stats and was happy to defer to those watching, but just thought his stats didn't support what you were saying at the time.

I have no ill feelings towards Beamer, but I'm glad we let him go because he wasn't going to do anything with us. I hope he keep racking up possessions, I've got him in my dreamteam!

Haha stats!

Let me relay what Eddie commentated a few minutes ago, as has become standard throughout Moloney's matches:

"...Moloney finishes up with the ball and sends it inside 50... And it comes back out again courtesy of Cooney..."

All I said was that he was slow, poor overhead and inconsistent because I was actually watching him play that way his stats don't disprove my comments......I'll move on

IT was more about you saying he goes missing when his team is struggling, which was often true for us, but as I said I was only going by stats as I'm unable to watch the game, and the stats didn't seem to support that view.

Just watched Beamer look slow and one dinensional and Martin look lost.

I am sure both will get better but who cares really.

This wasn't a good day for all those people who think that the NAB Cup should be taken seriously.

The Lions were dismantled as NAB Premiers.

They also sold half as much hope for that title as they burnt today.

You're not wrong. Stats are half the story. Brisbane's mids put no defensive pressure on their opponents and their NAB Cup star (Rich) got no protection. These issues are long acknowledged flaws in Beamers game, (not that he is wholly responsible) but he was part of a dreadful effort today.

Voss will learn quickly (should already know from watching Melbourne games) that Martin isn't a forward. Should have started him in the ruck. Minson pulled Longer's pants down from the first bounce.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
