    Great pic 'markc'!

    Out of interest which player does your family sponsor?  It must be a real thrill for your kids to have a player they have a special connection with.

    Did Lewis hold on to his snag or drop it on the floor?

    He dropped it and then dived on it when Jarman Impey tried to nab it.

    Great post mark, glad you and your family enjoyed it.

    Wouldn't worry about that. When Todd was coaching Echuca he turned up on crutches and was so furious at how the team was going at half time he threw them away and played the second half.

    I was also at the Player Sponsor BBQ and asked Viney about crutches.  He said it was all OK, part of then plan and was only about keeping the weight off.  Later on, I saw him walking around with both crutches in his hand.

    Btw MarkC, I saw your little man get Oliver's signature on his own.  My 8 year old boy was far more shy.

    The players were magnificent.

    It must be a drag having to roll up on Sunday lunchtime and chat to fawning fans, but they were so polite and friendly.

    My 15 yr old daughter got photos with about 6 players who were all so kind to her. She even got a photo with her future husband.( J H!)

    Jack Watts  and Trenners are such charmers! So patient!

    the question is  does your daughter know that you have arranged her marriage yet ??;)

    Does your daughter have a genetic predisposition for lowering her eyes?

    • 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.
