Post Match Masochism - Round 21

Recommended Posts

The other side of that coin is that when you cut your losses you can turn the dollar you have into 30 cents.

Martin for Pick 53 was not value. And we should have left that on the table.

Watts would be more valuable on the list than in a trade I am afraid to say.

i can't see much value in having a player who sets such a bad example on the non-negotiables and yet keeps getting games

what does that do to the morale of other players who don't get the "star" treatment

i don't think you can have your cake and eat it

Can someone please tell me what that girl said when the players were going into the tunnel...it looked like she was giving them a spray and was getting in Vince's face

Saw an article that mentioned her somewhere. They said she was screaming "WHAT WAS THAT?!?!?!" at them repeatedly. I may have taken a little license with the punctuation there.

I never took much interest in Maynard. Dobie was always my favourite.

No doubt she was commiserating with them but, at the same time, commending them on their effort.

I think you will find that's the case BBO. Even though on first glance she did appear to be mouthing "you've ruined my life you useless, [censored]pracks" she was in fact mouthing " bit stiff today chums, bounce wasn't with us today. chin up".

As an aside I used to love

1 Gomez Blowing up the trains

2 Mr Gazoo always giving it to Fred Flintstone

3 Louie Lebo cranking Sgt Shultz left right and centre

4 Capt Binghampton blowing a head gaskit at Elroy

5 Shintaro the Samurai killing 20 Puppet Ninja but never having any blood on his sword!

6 And Finally wondering what it would be like to get into Lady Penelope's deep and meaningfuls!!??

Ah Memories!!

Ah sorry for hijack but gotta feel good about something tonight!!

I was listening to SEN prematch and the commentators were baffled and questioned why 20 minutes before the bounce our players were handing out jumpers to supporters on the ground.

I wasn't at the game and maybe it was because of this Member appreciation week, but I don't think this is great for their headspace going into the match .

It did seem to have a bit of one team turning up expecting to win easily and the other turning up prepared to have a game of footy. Not an excuse because they should be able to switch on at quarter time, half time (too late by 3/4 time) but it's something I think our club suffers from far too often - how you can look at yesterday's game and compare it to the Adelaide, Essendon, Richmond and both Port games and think it's the same side is inexplicable.

How is that possible! Mission has been there for about 3 years now and all we have to show for it is Trengove is half as quick as he used to be and probably had OP for the last 2 years.

Bring back Bohdan Babizhbdifhvnsfdvs.

Can't underestimate how this is a cancer in a team. Next time the fwd just doesn't run because what's the point. Its one prime reason why this team doesn't run and spread. Watts is a classic example. In the past I have seem him be burned my multiple leads

One thing I do feel for Watts about is how often he is free in the corridor and his teammates refuse,to get it to him. Grimes burned him on two occasions and it's happened with Grimes often in the past to the point I actually commented that Watts must have slept with Grimes missus or something. That is where Watts needs the ball free in the corridor so he can actually use his elite kicking.

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    2024 Player Reviews: #17 Jake Bowey

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6

    SLIP SLIDING AWAY by Meggs

    It was a sweaty, slippery night at Cazalys Stadium, a tough slog with low scoring and missed opportunities.  The Hokball Hawks hung on to win by a goal and sit second on the ladder, relegating the disappointed Demons to, almost certainly, finals spectators.   We had to win this match. When news broke of late withdrawals of talisman Kate Hore and key back Gaby Colvin, expectations plummeted, and Demon fans despaired.  The bad news was the signature song of 2024, a season that’s
