    Howe is literally the only player I would give a pass to. What a disgusting effort.

    Neeld - paid holiday starting

    Trengove - Played on Mundy :(
    N.Jones - Tagged out of it
    Watts - We have to keep him just because our skills are so bad, but watching him up forward only made me think he's a defender because he's never going to take a strong grab
    Dawes - Can't really take a strong grab but he's our only probably forward target
    Frawley - Doesn't have the energy to care anymore which I don't blame him
    Byrnes - I was wrong when I thought he'd been ok
    McKenzie - Bit better today, limited Fyfe early but he's miles from a good tagger
    Dunn - His kickouts were better but that was it, he's footy IQ is about 14
    Garland - Competed well today, a few Garlandism kicks etc but you live with it
    Nicholson - Actually did slightly better on Ballantyne than I expected but his constant desire to shrug tackles is just mind numbing
    Sellar - I backed him in as a tall defender but way too many mistakes today. Pedersen time (god help us)
    Evans - Off day from the kid, Mzungu out ran him and he wasn't as clean as he usually is
    Tapscott - One bump, that's all he's done besides stuff up in the last 2 weeks. No speed, no midfield ability, can't grab a mark. I'm concerned
    Davey - Again the attacking stuff was fine but nothing hard or defensive. I've seen enough really
    Gawn - His second half was better but he lacks his energy. Isn't taking marks etc. Time for Fitzy
    Howe - As a loose man he's ok, don't get carried away. Up forward he's good when in space but can't beat a good opponent. On the wing whenever he gets the ball he gets overly enthusiastic with decision making
    Jetta - Day started badly when Dawson got him front on and then he tackled Clarke and didn't get holding the ball. But he just can't find it up forward. Time to go back to the VFL to play midfield with aim to being a small defender/mid
    Jamar - Won the ruck but it was too predictable and around the ground is starting to look like a liability. We have no better options but he needs serious coaching about getting to the right spots to take some marks.
    Bail - Pointless selecting this guy he's just not in any great form not that he was going to make an impact off the sub bench. His mental thinking aiming for that goal was just a waste of time
    M.Jones - Needs more defensive work when in the centre/physicality, he found some footy, we move on.
    Terlich - Shame his injured because once again he was one willing to take the game on.
    Magner - If you pick this guy as your 21st player starting from the bench you'll have a reasonable side. When he's your third pick midfielder you are in trouble. Had a crack as always.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
