    Garlett and Kennedy's inconsistency is a worry. Really cant afford to have them not turning up from week to week. I guess that when others become available, this inconsistency may see them out of the team.

    Small forward is the hardest spot on the ground to play. Some weeks the ball just doesn't bounce your way and you'll have a quiet one. Even Betts and Cyril have games where they don't get near it. As long as they keep the pressure up they'll earn their spot.

    Kennedy has the ability to go up the ground and link up while Garlett is a constant pest up forward - even if the ball isn't in his hands he creates good pressure. You're right though being a small forward is a tough role but one i reckon we have covered better than a lot of clubs.

    However because one of these two is generally playing on Friday or Saturday night Eddie or Cyril could be leaning over the fence chatting to fans during the game and Bruce/BT would still verbally orgasm into making it sound like a gamebreaking move. 

    Superstars of the game are never quiet on Bruce's watch. "You just get the feeling any minute etc etc"

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
