Frawley - solid as rock

Byrnes - not on field

McKenzie - never stopped trying

Dunn - gave rebound drive

Garland - played under duress

Nicholson - tried but failed

Sellar - just lacks skills

Evans - made dumb decisions

Tapscott - nowhere near standard

Davey - interested but flawed

Gawn - had no involvement

Howe - a wonderful game

Jetta - was probably playing

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.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
