Need I say more about Jack Watts?

still plays like a point guard basketballer.

Jack Watts, you can tackle, & get tackled in this game. Just in case you hadn't realised yet.

oh, & chase; when your opponent is running off with the ball you just coughed up. 'just sayin'.

There's no disgrace in being beaten by a few goals from a well polished, highly professional outfit, with a great history that is the Suns. Your thoughts.

It's really inspiring that they can give that kind of output without extracting beads of sweat for over 100mins of football...

It's currently not positive, but it can be as early as 2015. Yes, sadly my fellow supporters, it's another year over for the demons. Paul Roos, some who would truely think he answeres to 'masih', needs time. Its in my personal opinion Roos should execute a mass killing by October. The following names should be thoes who suvive this exodus: Hogan, N. Jones, Salam, Watts, Toumpass, Dawes, Viney, Trengove, Tyson, McKenzie, Dunn, Cross, Garland, Michie, Vince, JKH, McDonald, Grimes, Gawn, Howe, Fitzpatrick, M.Jones and thoes drafted in 2013.
Simple as that. Trade players with any wealth:
J.Frawley - 1st Round pick

S.Blease - 4th Round pick?

L. Tapscott - pick in 4th round?

Finish 16?

Pick 3: Best midfielder (inside, tough)

Pick in 1-20 (Frawley): Forward backup for Dawes and Hogan

Pick 27ish: Key Defender to replace Frawley's loss

Pick 45ish: Key midfielder

Pick 63ish: Best available

Pick 70ish (Blease): Best available

Pick 70ish (Tapscott): Best available

We need to keep Frawley - if you think we should trade him you're one of the classic MFC supporters who thinks the draft is the answer; it is not. Frawley is actually a big part of the answer.

Who would pay anything for Blease or Tapscott? They can't even develop VFL-level form.

As for the rest, let's leave that kind of discussion until the end of the year.

I just threw up in my mouth a bit.

That happened right in front of me. He is alarmingly fragile in the contest. It's astonishing. And it's not through a lack of strength. He completely disregards the opponent and plays and moves like he's a man playing against under-12s. The guy needs a reality check. VFL reality check.

I really think that video is a bit unfair and a disgrace from us supporters.

He was really bad today, Watts, but that passage of play isn't that bad and it would have happened to 15 others today.

At least he laid a tackle today! We had 5 players notch up a big fat 0 in the T column. People give it to Watts partly because he deserves it, but partly because they're biased. He was not the only player today to play poorly, so why is he the only one to get shamed on YouTube?

Yeah I got that vomit taste too now that you mention it. Jesus what a joke! I am behind words right now, I need to rinse out that taste!!

Because he comes with a higher expectation being a higher draft pick. Like it or not, high draft picks are supposed to have at least good football skills and smarts. I don't see this with Watts but we had the opportunity to trade him and we didn't.

There are no positives. The 2nd Q was a disgrace.

We should have won the game. Now we sit 1-4 with a full strength Swans waiting.

With more gut running and tackles we could have been 2-3.

But we are not.

If you genuinely do not think there are any positives, just give up and leave us all alone WYL. Seriously.

    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

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    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
