    Evans has been 3 weeks for 'foot' for about 3 weeks now

    Fare dinkum is Jamar ever not injured.

    Hardly missed IMO does not worry me.

    I think Spencer and Gawn do a better job.

    Trade if there is a taker.

    Would like to see have seen Evans play a few more games this season (I really don't know where I stand with him).

    He came out and had a couple really good games and then dropped a bit (maybe he needed a rest or the opposition begun to watch him)

    Where do others see him? (a definite part of our future or is it to early to tell?)

    I personally think he is going to be a very VERY good player, he needs time and is effectively a first year player given his injuries but i think in 2-3 years he will be the next cameron Bruce

    To be honest Bruce is a distant memory for me. All I can remember was that he liked having space on the wing and liked to run slowly waiting for an opposition to come to him and then he would handball over the oppositions head to a team mate. (Or am I just making that up? ... seems like a life time ago)

    I just think he will be a goal kicking wingman type, obviously abit quicker than Bruce but i am hoping he will be the same sort of consistant player, at one point Bruce was talked about as a possibility for the brownlow as was Johnstone, who toumpas reminds me quite abit of

    I hope you're referring to his foot skills rather than his work ethic and attitude.

    Just re looked at the injury list again with the exception of Clark and perhaps Evans the rest at not close to our best 22.

    That means the current side over the last couple of weeks is as good as we can put on the park.

    I don't believe we can blame the injury list for our woes.

    We are just plain crappy.

    RE not missing best 22 players, we are missing fringe players who would rotate in and our based on form.

    Not a major problem but does impact selection.

    Seems to me we are missing about 15 good players half of this best 22 are fringe players

    Guys like Evans and Jamar should be wraped in cotton wool for the remainder of the season. No point risking them at all just get them ready for a big preseason.

    Not too sure why we should be worried about Jamar he has been playing like our third string ruck man now for two years.

    Not really worried about him just no point playing him with 6 games to go.

    If only Pickles Evans could get a decent preseason under his belt and have an injury-free season. The club have perseverd with him over ( I think) 3 injury-riddles seasons now so they must see something in him in a similar way to Max Gawn.

    Note to all Demonland revisionists: Cameron Bruce might have been an outside player whose helicopter drop-punts and hospital hand -passes made us all cringe at times, but it is totally unfair to question his work ethic or talent. At his peak he was a very, very good footballer. Don't let's re-write our own history because we are all feeling so poorly about 2013.

    You have my vote Maldonboy

    he also had an ability that a few of the current crop could emulate

    He could get the bloody ball even if he was an outside player.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
