Hopefully not at the expense of Garlett which some around here have been mooting.

I love Jeffy but I wish he could play his best all year.

Lets face it... hes a game winner at times, but seems to go missing at the end of seasons.

If he can play his best all year it will make a huge difference.

Nothing more exciting when the ball goes long and its a race b/w Jeff and some poor mug.

    i agree somewhat, but that's just the way he plays. he's dynamic and mecurial. up and down. and over there too! the challenge of consistency is real and i'm sure he's working towards it, but at the end of the day, he adds something no one else in the team (even fritsch and hannan) can.

    Looks like the interchange against the Catty Puds will be:

    Angus Brayshaw, Dom Tyson, Sam Frost, Jake Melksham

    This, I like.

    Yeah I think Jake will start, don’t like Cats set up they look a tad top heavy. Hope, we get a large crowd - we have to be a genuine 50/50 chance and if there is rain I think we move into favourites. We have a real chance to set up our season - we just have to learn to recognise & take the opportunities when they present themselves - but that is an education process and a mind set.

    Not sure if anyone has noticed but his stats are comparable to those of Jack Watts from Port Adelaide.

    Haven't heard of him.

    How's his leap - he is graceful...so so graceful.

    Close ups on TV looks like his arms would snap like twigs being broken by kindergarten kids...mind 

    Floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.

    Whereas Jack Watts stings like a butterfly and floats like a bee.

     

    (Apologies to JW. Doesn't really deserve such criticism. I just couldn't help myself)

    Great mark. But really good from Milky to block the other defender out.

    A Lot of good work goes unnoticed by some supporters   but I am sure the FD sees it all.

    but yes you are correct  really good form  but it might have been seen as blocking by some biased umpires.

    I can't wait for Zac Smith to come on, as well.

     

    And I'd like 'the bull', rampaging thru the saints china shop, up front for us this week.

    Best evidence of absolute teamwork for the year, so far!

    And one of the two will only get better.

    If you had a chance would you trade 27 year old Tiptoes for 21 year old Fritsch ?

    Well it was mooted that we wouldn't lose much in a direct 'swap' of Watts for Fritsch but its quite likely we will gain significantly. And the upside is terrific

    Great kick and what a pair of hands!

    Will be a mainstay in this side.

    Can't help but see a touch of R. Flower about that mark. 

    same as the one he took in his first game, his first goal iirc. did remind me of flower marking

    I’m glad I’m not the only one to see Flower in certain things the Frittata does.

    Totally agree. 

    Better than I expected, really adds some class to the forward line.

    • 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.
