    Sylvia: gave a damn......... Except when he was expected to chase he chose when too and when not too.

    Dawes: ball kicked over his head or on top.

    I would much rather a few of the other guys had the confidence to take the game on like Terlich.

    Sylvia? Really? Ran around the outside of packs, 10 direct turnovers, kicking efficiency about 50%. Flashy goal in the last, 3 quarters too late.

    Viney, Dawes, Howe, Garland , Gawn and Sellar get pass marks. The rest, not.

    The Herald sun summed it up for me with the following - Jack Viney played his best game for the club, Matt Jones kept trying and Gawn again showed something, but that was about it.

    AFL standard
    Howe - Our best. If he could kick straight he would bag 5-6.

    Gawn - liked his game. Big man. Has the edge.

    N.Jones - tagged again. No one cuts out his tagger to help.

    Sylvia - showed why he is in our top 5 players. Frustration let him down.
    Viney - tried but flawed

    M.Jones - classy disposal. Our best rookie this year.
    Strauss - showed some run and carry. Nice goal. A keeper.

    Terlich - trier

    Tapscott - showed some grunt. but also fumbled too much

    Frawley - was he playing !!
    McKenzie - hmmm - bereft of skills
    Dunn – trier.
    Garland - holding back a tidal wave. trier.
    Sellar - trier
    Evans - trier
    Kent - overwhelmed. trier. leave in to get some games into.
    Dawes - no one at magpieland cried when he left. One effort player.

    To be omitted:
    Spencer – 2nd rate. VFL Dev squad.
    Bail – ohhh. Back to vfl. Fell over. Missed tackles etc etc
    Nicholson - dumb and dumber and dumb and dumber 2
    Byrnes - VFL standard (drop)
    Davey - limited and flawed. Missed 2 easy goals

    Dawes ?? pushed off the footy. One effort. Poor elbow swing. Tried to mark on chest not hands. he was poor.

    Thought for limited opportunities Dawes kicked some nice passes that had the forwards leading to the the ball. He took a couple of marks, contested a bit, and fluffed a few. For first game back, I'd give him a 'pass'. Lots of room for him to improve. Nice if players could kick to his advantage.

    Call me crazy, but I've found myself agreeing with Bluey on one point tonight.

    Howe plays like an absolute millionaire; best player in the U-7's.

    If he could bring some variety to his game, it'd be a breath of fresh air.

    His one 'screamer' today: made it look harder than it was.

    • 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.
