Ah.   That old chestnut. 

I will ask you this.   If you can't  criticise the bad can you appreciate the good? 

And if so how do you know what good is if you aren't permitted to judge the standard if you haven't been on an afl list? 

What do you actually do at the football if you won't allow yourself to judge the merits or otherwise of what occurs in front of you?   

The only part of the opinion of a player I don't care for is where their ability is denigrated, they are soon found out if they are not upto AFL level

Not many, if any, on here have played at AFL level so to denigrate a player or their ability has always seemed wrong to me

It also seems to me that those who have played seem not 0to have made a mistake in a game

A lot of the pithy comments etc smacks to me as coming from a position of envy

As for Mclnerney, seems a good prospect, but needs to work on his tank by all reports, but most players new to AFL have to do that

    Quoting this part to keep relevance to the thread. I don't have anything to add except that I am interested in hearing details and information about young Oscar (and any potential young Ruck/fwd prospects as I see it as need we have to address this draft). I would hate to see this thread derailed into pages of Saty bashing and wall p-ssing like as so many do. AAC, Penant St Dee, and anyone else with info please continue to feed us insights on players as I come to these threads because I am interested.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
