I have to say the excitement levels were high when I saw the headline "Watts, Gawn return for GWS Clash" and rose even higher when I saw Spencer had been included in the squad for this could mean only 1 thing - "he's going, going, GAWN!...Jamar is out." Yet, seems they still havent come to their senses and any excitement I had the prospect of us at least trying with some other tall timber fell away when I saw him still named as the starting big man. When will they come to their senses and how many chances can one man get...

    Jamar is listed in the 18, Spencer on the extended bench, chances are Spencer will be an emergency. So The Russian seems safe this week.... unfortunately.

    Yeah I know, depressing isnt it - but that still doesnt mean he shouldnt be given a spell, his form is appaling and letting him know that just because he's on a contract doesn't mean he's a starter may be just the motivation he needs to actually get another touch....

    Jamar seems to be under an injury cloud each week. Spencer was an emg last week because there was a possibility of Jamar as a late withdrawal (Neil Craig said it himself) and a training report from this week said he left traning early due to something back related?

    The Russian has a Back-Related Posession and Disposal Problem.

    Well he hasn't any talent on the football side of things.

    Jamar a late withdrawal hopefully

    Would love Spencer and Gawn in the team together

    I actually really liked what i saw from Jake in 2012, he loves to tackles and his 2nd efforts are tremendous, not to mention he is 203 centimeters and competes well at ballups and throw ins.

    Sure his kicking is bad, but at least he has the balls to kick it unlike Jamar

    • 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.
