I actually don't think thats a bad thing, for how much shite he cops on here, he actually played bloody well last week as a back men, keep him there.

exactly some on here should watch the replay looks even better than live at the ground

Cops a lot from some here wish our more skilled players tried as hard

A real keeper down back even when Garland is back and Chip signs a new contract as full forward

    It's a sad story the Tapscott one, as he looked like one of our brightest prospects in 2011. Still remember his brilliant debut. Injuries and a lack of pace/agility/ball-winning ability have sealed his fate. Delist.

    Have you seen Jetta this year?

    I only have at training and he looks like he is in the best shape that he has ever been in.

    No, I haven't.

    I've seen enough over 4 years to realise that he's not up to AFL standard.

    If anyone can make Tappy into an AFL Player it is Paul Roos, but i think it is a big ask.

    I think his best position is in the backline, he can attack the ball hard and has a long kick but these days you touch the opposition and you give away a free, he is fighting a very uphill battle.

    It will take a miracle to keep Tappy on the list. Injury has limited his opportunities, but he hasn't done enough with the opportunities he's had. We have to delist at least five - I think he and Nicho are gone. Perhaps Pedo too, but I'm not sure of that.

    think pedo has another year to run on contract

    You may well be right but for all players I am completely discounting the last 4 years and will judge them on any glimmers of talent or progress this year and this year only..

    I have tried to do similar but it is bloody hard to do that if they are not on the park nutbean

    I remember hearing that players under Alan Jeans were always scared to tell them they were injured because they thought he felt it was the sign of a character flaw. I think you are from the same school Old Dee.

    That's a good call too.

    Hope reigns supreme.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
