Can't believe Watts is getting votes. He was as infuriating as ever.

He was better today than he has been in a long time. Plenty of ball, did some damage with it, took players on with his pace and I think he even tried to put a block on at one point. Of course, he was also [censored]-poor whenever someone put a hand on him, but it was still an improvement.

Don't agree. I have been on the anti-Watts bandwagon for years but I thought his game tonight was the best I've seen him play (at least until 3/4 time). I actually saw some endeavour, chase, tackling and something that resembled urgency at times. Yes once or twice he reverted to type but nowhere near as often or as bad as usual. And his use of the ball and decision making was by far superior to any one else on the field - and boy, don't we need that! I didn't know whether to be happy (turned the corner) or sad because it was an aberration and so he won't be considered for trading. I so hope it's the former, but I fear not. Anyway:

6 Nathan Jones

5 Dom Tyson

4 Jack Watts

3 Chris Dawes

2 Dean Kent

1 Bernie Vince

6.Tyson - he has only just begun, going to be a very very good player when he hits the 50-70 game range

5.TMac - good game and good to see him kick 2 goals, I have a lot of faith in this kid

4.Vince - been a good pick up and continued his good form tonight

3.Kent - showed what he is capable of, if he can develop a tank look out

2.Cross - I love him and the way he goes about it, can play another 2 years he is that professional in his approach

1.Watts - again some bad point with keeping his feet and one on ones but used it well and took the game on a bit

Michie and Nate Jones are unlucky to miss out on votes

The fall off in the number of posts in post match threads compared to a few years ago correlates with our game day attendances and is indicative of the extreme apathy gripping supporters 8 years in to a catastrophic era for the MFC.

I wish we could sue Schwab and Connolly. Seriously

Me too...I would add a few more to the list.

6 - Vince ( a class ahead of anyone else in our team this game)

5 - Tyson ( intelligent footballer who amassed heaps of possessions , but infuriatingly seems to encounter mental blocks)

4 - McDonald ( hates to lose , has passion, but needs to master his foot skills)

3 - Kent ( a break out game too late to build momentum on )

2 - N.Jones ( workhorse, who was prolific but not a standout )

1 - Cross ( sad we have to play him, but age hasn't wearied)

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    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

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
