Aaron Davey

[Demon Jack 6,909]

Though he faded out in the second half, I thought Davey looked much better. He looked threatening when he claimed possession and kicked some goals reminiscent of his olden days.

Thoughts on Davey?

Thoughts on Davey?

Gave his all ,looked fitter than he ever has.

Can actually play football.

One positive.

[Kento80 83]

I'll give him a pass mark. Just. And to be honest, he's about the only one. At the end of the day, it does't matter how well he started, they all ended up not trying.

[Bang Bang Bang 5,826]

I thought he was finished before tonight but he was all class early on. Encouraging signs.

[TONKA 64]

He looked good and we need senior melbourne players right now, god knows we sacked the rest of 'em

[Little Richard 6,262]

Really surprised me, looked pretty good and has that deadly disposal still.

I think he's a bit leaner than the last couple of years too.

[fired up 77]

Put in a much improved effort,even going in to packs a few times.

[Pates 9,660]

Being over in the US at the moment reading a small positive, no matter how small, is a nice change.

He looked like his old self. I think he was tasked with one thing - applying pressure, and be did a great job at it when the ball actually got there.

[Buzzy 992]

We should give him the ball as much as possible. The best kick in our team by so far it's not funny. Far from our worst.

[Chook 15,013]

He made me pine wistfully for those halcyon days of 2004...until I remembered how we collapsed into an abominable heap that year and lost to none other than Essendon in that gut-wrenching Elimination Final.

FLASH made a comeback tonight, not Aaron Davey as he's been for 2-3 years but FLASH that bloke that excites you when he gets the ball. The bloke who runs hard and tackels harder. I've missed him, I don't know where he's been but I'm sure glad he's back.

[DeeSpencer 25,711]

Was ok in patches and a nice fluke goal. Still on the soft and unfit side, but not much different to his brother.

Was the best in our impossible forward line as in its impossible to get a kick in. If he was a true footballer and leader he'd be on a half back flank in the trenches.

But for what he can deliver he was ok

Fittest i've seen in 3 years. I was over him after the squib but he seems to be back to some sort of form which is encouraging and was a small glimmer of light this evening. Not sure why he wasn't played at beginning of season. We lack toe and skills by foot, and he at least has that in spades versus most of our other boys.

On the half-back line? You mean like Jack Watts?

[Adam The God 30,259]

Yeah, Aaron had a dip. Though he didn't play four quarters. Worth a game next week.

[titan_uranus 25,020]

From what I've seen of the first half, he was one of our best. I'm sure the entire 22 was pathetic for most of the second half, but Davey showed more than most in the first, so ease off him this week at least.

[Grapeviney 9,721]

Was our only genuine goal-kicker.. the other 3 majors all came from free kicks!

[Hank the Tank 22]

Played well. One of the few players I didn't cringe at when he had the ball. Pin point precision by foot. Good to see him back, hopefully he can maintain

[angrydee 842]

Best I've seen him play in a long time. Tried a lot harder than many of the others wearing the same jumper. They're not a team so I won't refer to them as such.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Was probably in our top few tonight. Two exciting goals was a huge bonus, our only 2 exciting goals to be honest. Pity is, over the last couple of years he's been very quick to discard after showing good signs and then a bad performance. Unless he goes completely off the rails, he's an important player to have out there.

[jnrmac 20,065]

I am an AD critic but he attacked the ball early on. Took some heat and did OK. Haven't seen that from him for a long time.
