Brayshaw's is form

Hannan and Hunt the same

I asked at training today

They are expected to knock the door down at Casey, starting Sunday

Kent has been rewarded for not only 'attacking' the game last week, even though it was only a praccy game but his training, he has been doing extra and has exceeded all his previous stats

So much tish , just look at poor old Coburgs team

If Casey don't win that by 200 points its a poor reflection on what is almost our alternative team !

If anyone can't " knock the door down " in that MFC team, they should be traded now

I love Frankston and  HATE the VFL/ AFL

Sometimes over opiniated Johny Come Latelys miss the big picture !

Taking the whole family today. Will be very surprised if we don’t win. Even have a bet to wear bunny ears to work on Monday if we don’t.

I asked him straight ou today, I get on really well with him, it is form, has to knock door down at Casey, intends to

It is another example of what I said pre season, there are no favourites, out of form, back to Casey Hunt being the latest

If that is true then it would be the first time at the MFC for a very long time Saty.  If so it augers well for the future and prospects going forward.

Need a bit of depth to be able to carry that strategy of course.

Good to hear that Kent is fitter - has good pace and is dangerous around goals. His tank ( and attitude) has always been the problem.

If you were telling me that after you had seen today's match I would be feeling a lot happier Chook!

That's why he has been rewarded this week, have a look at the Heartbeat mag, Kent's words from Goody were the only ones with a slightly negative slant 'after an indifferent 2017' 'how he responds'

He probably saw the writing on the wall and has knuckled down

His form in the VFL has been really good and he knows if he doesn't perform today, his stay in the AFL team will be short lived

Bugg does a lot of gut running, team first, things that unfortunately seem to go unnoticed by many here.

If you look at many of the Demons goals from the highlights package, Bugg is either in or near the goal square, or running into space to create another option. Even though it won’t reflect in his stats at the end of the game, I’m sure this doesn’t go unnoticed by the coaches and his team-mates.

I personally really like what he brings to the team.

 

Yep, nailed it.

    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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    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

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
