Chris Dawes....

You wouldn't play JC at FF surely JR. Have him out at CHF where he could take on some leadership responsibility and demand the ball !

Wouldn't matter where you play him - with his old style approach you can be sure the umpires would crucify him.

 

Criticism is warranted for his poor form but geez you blokes turn quickly.

Dawes had 5 kicks 5 handballs 5 marks. his career average over 8 years is 6 kicks 5 handball 4 marks. he is playing to his full potential.how can we ask for more when he is already playing at his peak

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Dawes always seems to have 3 players on him when he leads.

Melbourne player floats the ball somewhere in his direction so it is easily spoiled by defenders

loose melbourne players are nowhere near the contest and run alongside their opponents who get the ball that has been knocked down

Meanwhile Watts has presented three times to a space and been ignored by teammates who take so much time delivering the ball forward the opposition are able to man up and set up.

Dawes needs Howe behind him and jkh in front of him Watts can deliver it to him


I did notice on the odd occasion Dawesy came right up the ground he had no real problem marking a ball. he can mark. Hes good at fumbling when pressured but I reckon 9/10 ppl would , with that much attention

  • 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.
