I thought he played pretty well on the weekend. few good marks.  will be an important defender for us for years to come

He is improving every week and still he cops it. One day he will hold a big key forward goalless, and people will still say he isnt up to it.

How he stil gets games mystifies me. That lamantable chase down of the ball which cost a goal was droppable for a start! Plus his miserable body on body efforts costing another 2 goals! Beats me!!

Don't worry they will have found another whipping boy by then and will have moved on

picket must seriously have a personal gripe to pick with these guys- he comes across as the most nasty miserable man, and i would hate to live in his head!

you mustn't read all the posts, there are some serious issues across the board with quite a few

Is this guy an AFL standard player? I think not !Anyone else share the same opinion?

Yes he is.  Considering his age, body size, inexperience and the fact hes a KPD he is exceeding expectations already.

Show him some love, PF!     23 possies today in one of our greatest wins.

Was excellent today.

Absolutely!  Was very composed in his play today, and really looked like he belonged.

I still have a couple of queries (as I do with most players), but he has been good the last month or so.

My only knocks are his composure in tight situations and not hitting markings contests as hard as he could.

Every young player has things they need to work on, and as I said, his last month has been good stuff.

This and his speed or lack of, He was good for the most part but should have made more of an impact on Brayshaws (bad) kick.

How you still have energy to have a go at the McDonald brothers mystifies me.

We as fans see short term, win this week, the footy depth have looked at Oscar as long term. Today was reward for that. 

He will have his ups and downs but is looking a lot more comfortable at AFL.

Two good games in a row. OMac is certainly putting his case forward. Classic Roos project player. Tracking better than his brother at this stage.

Picket Fence is Demonland's answer to Benny Hill.

For the second week in a row he played his career best game.

Still needs to develop more confidence when we are in offence - the Stretch goal is a perfect example of that. But defensively he has improved this year and with TMac and Frost, they are starting to gel more down there as a unit.

Big fan of OMac and it's great to see him going from strength to strength.  For a second year KPD to be playing the way he is, it's fantastic for now and the future.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    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
