Took us from 1944 points to 2035 points despite Hogan out for most of the year, Watts turning up in bad condition, no Vanders and Kent falling off the wagon. Developed ANB and Melksham in to pretty solid half forwards. Got a fair bit out of Hannan. And for a lot of the year our forward pressure took a big leap forward. 

There's issues for sure - talls getting in each others way, not enough leading up at the kickers and inconsistent tackle pressure. But Chaplin's coaching didn't make things worse than last year.

Well said. For a dysfunctional forward line coached terribly we kicked a lot of scores over 100 points

Bex and a good lie down i think 36

I had a friend who played for west coast and was part of the 2006 grand final. I supported them like it was the dees playing. He has history with that team of course he will support them against the crows. If Melbourne made it then I'm sure you'd see David Neits in the stand with his Melbourne scarf on barracking for the Dee's

They probably get a pass in these situations but you have to admit it looks a bit strange. 

Just remember the club that pays your wages.

Well, if the MFC has an issue with it, I'm sure they will let those concerned know... I get the feeling you will find that the club would give them its blessings.

And we also had our key forward miss most of the year, not to mention other injuries.

You have to be kidding yourself if you don't believe ex players aren't going to have a soft spot for teams they played for, doesn't mean they barrack for them when we play against them. I actually wouldn't be surprised if Bernie Vince was there somewhere barracking for Adelaide. ?

Apparently he was right there along side Sloane ...

So here is our forward line coach on Saturday clad in a tigers scarf, announcing it's tiger time. I've been shot down by a few ppl this week on here saying I was making too much of Goodwin suggesting he would celebrate with the Crows if they win. Surely you look at this and shake your head in disbelief

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
