wish i was there, wish today had've worked out. oh well, it's great to see.

very impressed by gawn again tonight, can be a serious player. frawley and watts very good, kent is very exciting, trengove has been getting much more involved.

really wish we could stop liberatore getting clearances - if we could clamp down on him it'd help extend the lead even further.

yes, i really said the LEAD!!!

Tony Shaw is a FAR#KNG butt face

He accused NJones of dropping the knees and diving forward when he got he free kick inside 50.

Don't worry about the 2 other players on his BACK you doppy, ill informed, overrated spud nuckle.

U r a disgrace.

OH MY GOD We're a football team again!

Haven't seen us play football like this since 2011.

Loving Tom MacDonald's runs through the middle. Even he is shocked!

Best half of footy we have played since 2011. There really is no co-incidence in this. This same team lost by 10 goals to the Suns less than 2 months ago, yet tonight they are playing with flair and confidence.

It is what it is!

2 things - all those who bagged Jimmy Toumpas hang your heads in shame.

Neil Craig can coach, unfortunately Mark Neeld could not (thought he might have been able to, but tonight proves that he lost the playing group). Oh and thirdly Jack Watts can play too!

That shouldn't have been a free, but I'm okay with it for two reasons:

1. Nathan Jones is a hard-nut, who earns what he gets generally.

2. It happened to a Melbourne player, so it's okay.

What a waste of the last 18 months with a [censored] gameplan,we're playing with so much freedom and confidence now.

Great to see Watts really enjoying his footy and not roaming the backline playing unaccountable football.

JT has 14 disposals and running freely again.

Ahhh Big Maxxy

NC wants the job.

Agree !

I haven't thought too many times this year that they know how to play football !

The game is only half over but you can get the feel from this performance that if the team can be bolstered with the addition of a couple of goers next year (and of course the necessary additional draft pick(s)) there might yet be hope for the future

My main beef chook is that he said he dived which he didn't.

That really pizzed me off cause jones ain't no diver.

Clark dawes hogan watts howe with gawn or fitz resting

Just need a mid or two.

Dale Thomas.

i know a lot of people think he is soft, but he is far from soft and he can really play.

Goddard has been the pick up of 2013 and Daisy will be the pick up of 2014.

if anyone had of said after the 2010 grand final that both these players would be on offer in a few years, it would've been laughed at.

Daisy is exactly what we need.

The best thing is he is playing the contest and not even looking at the umps.

Absolutely mate...can't stand him doesn't even contest it. [censored] I hope we get up

I'm not sure about that proving anything..

..but I think i hear that the players are playing on instinct, so I can presume the defensive shackles have been let loose & the players may have been told to take the game on & trust your instincts... this will show up like they are playing.... but it doesn't mean you can do it this way against Hawthorn.

It's obvious Neeld had the team playing in chains.

They are now off.

If our boys have any pride the dogs will be crushed tonight.

The Mark Neeld era will be banished to a distant dark memory.

The entire board must go btw.

Before everyone bags Mark Neeld (who I admit had serious problems in his coaching style and plans), consider also that Neil Craig is a damn good coach whoonly moved on from his old club because he felt that was the best thing for the players.

Make no mistake. He is a legitimate option to coach us next year.

Jack Grimes reckins he'll be out there next week! How good is that?

Also, he says that Neil Craig will be putting his hand up to coach the team next year.

Even better, imagine a bloodthirsty Viney on the field.

    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

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
