James Frawley

Clark is welcome to nothing as far as i am concerned.

"I'm cured..." Just in time for the draft

Yeah right....

 

As an observation, he was an AA player when he had a good defence around him and a decent midfield (Jamar and Beamer led the league in hit outs to advantage for example). He didn't have a good defence or midfield at the Dees for the past couple of years and at the Hawks he played without their first choice defence or midfield. So maybe he plays OK when he has other good players around him. Wouldn't be the first and often what I say about a lot of players

Like Colin Sylvia.

Col is surrounded by good players now and.....??

Yeah right....

More like " I need to be drafted to a better club to be cured...."

Not that I am cynical. It's a terrible disease....

 

I went down to Launceston and watched the game, Frawley was pretty awful made some noticeable blunders, he will play better when Hawthorn have their full team playing, he looks good in the gold and brown.

He will be forced to handball more. As Crawford said, he will be the next Simon Taylor at Hawthorn.

His shocking decision making and execution will be buffered a little as he will have class around him and clear gut-running options up ahead.

The one-or-two that knew Frawley was overrated junk, even as he accepted the AA honour, knew footy, and know footy. The rest, listen to SEN and regurgitate junk with retrospective wisdom.

Mitch Clark is different. He has a great pair of mitts. You could have put any forward in any era in our forward line circa Neeld, with long-bomb Maloney pumping it 60m in the air and 40m forward....and our ultra-slow boundary hugging ball movement. We allowed the opposition to gang up on him 3 to 1 many times. Clark did better than anyone could have.

  • 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.
