Very good article.

Conveniently written the week we're playing Port, the old pump up our tires and then watch us self deflate trick.

Lets not fall for that and smash Port this weekend!

    Copy the address in dazzle's post and paste it into google search and away you go. Works for me anyway and it's been used by others before.

    I think I've heard this story before.

    Wasn't our day supposed to be coming about five years ago after we snapped up all those early draft picks around 2008/9?

    I know it may be hopeful but this is different.

    This is the best list and most complete we have seen at the MFC for a long time.  

    And it has a nice blend of grunt and class.

    Good and incisive article (and it didn't even mention Crow-eater ANB, returning No. 2 pick Jack Trengove or Ben Kennedy)!

    Search google using the title, and it will come up. Works on most newspaper sites.

    Yes list is not only much younger than circa 2010, but much higher proportion of first round draft picks, much better coached, and a much higher proportion of potential A grader. We have a number of players who will be in the top 25 AFL players in a year or two. We had none in 2010.

    This is very different.

    There is one big difference WJ then we picked poorly and the wrong types this time around the people doing the selecting know what the are doing.

    • 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.
