I had a water-proof jacket and fortunately a rug. The rug was the savour. Concur with everything you've noted, Scoop.

    Steve Johnson has been cited for dropping his knee into Jones chest.

    Not good for my Dreamteam but if he doesn't get a week I'll be amazed. Maybe I should prepare myself...

    Cant stand Johnson as a player or person.

    What an arrogant smug little plick.

    Hope he gets suspended again.

    I would love to see him running around in an MFC jumper.

    im gonna cop some flack but here goes

    under the coaching of DB, I had a discussion with a friend about Davey, I said he didn't want to play footy and was going on the ground for the sake of it

    MN arrives and my friend expressed the thought that he would come good under a new coach and his best would reappear,

    and now under yet another coach, its the same old AD, no heart whatsoever. forget the conditions , the team structure,age, and any other excuse, this man for some unknown reason , doesn't want to play football anymore

    on the weekend , high and dry I might add.my geelong mates were very honest to say what they thought of our team, some good things some bad , but from the very start there was one demon not willing to be part of the game.in the first 10 minutes there were chances to run up from hf and be an extra at the ball, he didn't want to do it .he came off the ground at times not even puffing or showing signs of being involved.unfortunately ive seen this behaviour for 3 years and its not changed,were meant to be starting a new era and the group must be devastated to see a wonderful talent completely finished and not even showing a glimpse, it was very sad

    I love Steve as a player, don't know him as a person. I find him the most entertaining player in the game to watch.

    Interesting that on Saturday we had a inferior side to the infamous 2011 team and lost by 11 goals

    compared to 31.

    If only they had stuck to their decision on CS.

    What might be the position now?

    We will never know but I believe the main reason we are were we are to day goes back to the first half of 2011.

    I went yesterday

    The only positive is that I didn't catch pneumonia.

    With dedication like yours, Scoop, I presume you ventured out on the Highway again yesterday to attend the Scorps game at the Avalon Airport Oval ,again in the rain.

    Did you remember the poncho this time?

    I'm ashamed I didn't make the trip to Kardinia Park.My excuses were:- 1/ Worried I'd fall asleep driving after being up till 3.30 watching the Test.

    2/ No- one I rang wanted to go with me. 3/The amateurs team i support were playing at home in a vital game.

    BUT.....in the back of my mind I remembered the games down there in '06 and '07 for thrilling draw and a one point win. I'll never forget the joy of the train trip home those days. If you don't go to games where you expect to lose, you'll never have that terrific feeling of the surprise victory.

    I went down early last year partly to see Jack Vineys first reserves game, but he was pole axed before I got there!

    ps. Sometimes pneumonia takes a few days to develop!

    • 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.
