Recommended Posts

Jones - gallant and cared

Hogan - unsighted before injury

Salem - slow and loose

Watts - didn't silence doubters

Petracca - had little impact

Lewis - season best game

Brayshaw - was rarely sighted

Gawn - couldn't hold marks

Tyson - an overrated liability

Oliver - many pointless handpasses

Hibberd - continued downward spiral

Melksham - took his chances

Hannan - overwhelmed and undersized

Pedersen - no heroics today

Vince - past his prime

T.McDonald - disappointing and loose

O.McDonald - hardly imbued confidence 

Hunt - exciting but careless

Neal-Bullen - was hardly noticed

Garlett - frustrating but tried

Jetta - not his best

Harmes - was he playing?

Petracca had 23 touches kicked 2 goals and had 8 score involvements. 

ANB kicked 2 goals and similar game to Trac. They both arguably kept us in it.

Way too lenient on Jones and Hunt. They were both awful.

Hibberd was ok. Trac was good. Jones was disappointing 

You are happy with Hibberd turning it over or fumbling. Is not a shadow of the player he was early in the season.Something is wrong there.

Replace against all players except the MacBoys- Butchered the Ball

Against the Mac boys- Very Dumb Footballer.

Gee, we get on the bike pretty easy. We only lost by 19 points so there must have been some positives.

Petracca: Brilliant at times/Missing at times

TMac : playing without confidence

Midfielders : too many easy entries into Cwood fwdline

ALL : 2 ay running required

Watts : DId something constructive with the ball

We have bite the bullet, cannot play jones and vince in the same side. Oliver needs help and probably needs to have an additional week off. Since Gawn's return we turned to mush,probably opposition players have worked him out. We need to bite the bullet,perhaps Hogan needs to play back or be traded. We need to get more currency in the next trade,ANB ,Kennedy,JKH and Tyson to be moved on. Lever to become f.b. Omac to wing,T.Mac forward. We need a near ruckman,Gawn should play forward with only zone ruck duties.We need more mids with guts and speed. two wins up on last year is not good enough,but as a dee supporter you expect disappointment.

Did we rush Brayshaw back to soon? Admittedly was good against Saints and OK last week, but went missing today. Could have used a hard nut like Maynard in the middle today.

I thought Brayshaw was on each of our best to three quarter time. Interesting how people see things differently.

Tried his heart out. He cares. That gives him a few credits for me

It wasnt a great game from him but the way the ball came in was horrible for a defender. 

It was bad day to have a bad game though. He was much better than TMAc whose time in the frwd line has made him forget how to defend.

Why Goody keeps letting Vince play in the backline Ill never understand.

Gawn has been much worse than Watts this year is my 2 cents. Seriously needs to get to at least vfl fitness standard. Hes not marking because hes not presenting. Hes not presenting because he is 40 yards away.

Hannan has hit a wall.

That chip kicking by so many in the first 15 mins of the game was just strange.

There were just too many players that only played half a game. 

There have been too many poor starts this year where the gap is so big we cant close it.

Something needs to be done b4 the first 10 min. Goody just doesn't seem like the type to fire them up. He's very cool and thats just how some coaches coach.

I wouldnt mind him throwing the odd wobbly from time to time.

Seriously the umpires did ignore a lot of frees they should have paid us and while we were poor it may have made a difference to our %.

We need to recruit another ruckman that can play fwd another gun midfielder and another wingman and we should be ok.

Several delists for me including White, Spencer, Kennedy, Kent and Trengrove to start with. JKH and Weidman need to get show some form next year.

We are moving in the right direction at least. we won ten games last year. As disappointed as I am.....the expectations of MINE were way too high.

Hmm yeah perhaps a bit harsh, had 20 stats, but wasn't really damaging. Kicked it to nobody about 4 times, just seems a bit unsure of himself still. Will  be a gun i'm sure though.

Brayshaw was very ordinary. He didnt hit hardly any targets and manages to get his kicks smothered very often. Id like to see this particular stat. It would be out of him and Tyson to see who gets smothered more. But I dont mind Dom's kicks being smothered, it creates a 50/50.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
