Yes, most certainly an ornament to the game. Used to get to the G early on game days to see him play in the Reserves team. Such developing class. Took the marks, kicked like no-one else you ever saw, handled the nasties on the field with aplomb and just before they hit our little rovers. Then into the firsts, went he. Did it all on a bigger stage to better effect. One of the greats. Did you see his TV interview with Mike Sheahan a year or two back? Pure honesty: 'I did what I did for Melbourne.'

Yes i did see it thanks to Youtube

i still think Grinter when i see a Demon wearing 14

    I don't think there's anything wrong with what Wallace said.  

    No, nothing wrong and he hardly urged them.

    Just thought they should...

    I hope they do focus on Lever, I've always found when this happens players can lose sight of the real objective.

    Winning a game of footy.

    I hope we don't get sucked into the BS and just go about our business.

    No matter what Wallace said glorifying him having his jaw smashing into pieces is pathetic. 

    I have always been appalled by the incident no matter the time or how footy was played. It was thuggery.

    Was the catalyst for the afl to commence trial by video. 

    Lever was ably backed up last week when carlton tried it on in the 3rd quarter. Esp by tmac and hibberd. 

    Will the crows seriously risk antogonising viney and lewis? As viney said this week when asked about this and alice springs ".....I'm ready to rumble...."

    Did he have that annoying squeak (beautifully described by Wadda We Sing) before or do we have Rod Grinter to thank for that?

    Did Grinter hit him from behind? The pic appears that way.

     

    I will always believe Grinter was going fairly for the ball and it went a bit pear shaped. 

    Never thought there was nothing malicious in it.

    Nothing would make us click together more, than the Crows targeting One of ours.   'terry' wants this.

    Carlton tried the faux tough stuff last week and look where that got them.

    exactly.

     

    Nothing..... Nothing,,,,  galvanizes the D's more, than one of ours being attacked.

    2005 we may have struggled,  but this group Will definately not.

    Yeah Lever should be petrified with the Crow thugs.

    Viney should go to their huddle pre game and see whos up for it.

    He should go to their huddle pre game and tell them who better be up for it. :D

    exactly, and it was how we played the game back then. it was the norm, give or take.

     

    Captain blood made his name doing such things, as a clean up exercise.   you hit ours, we hit yours. 

    You should ask about the O'Keefe's, down the beach way.   not averse to a scuffle or two.

     

    The Wallace thing was Rodney's crudest.

    It will be a good test for lever. The pressure will come and we will get to see how he responds. I’m backing him ?

    It would be the making of him, with us.   It would be 'the final straw', of his interstate divorce.

    bring it on.

    I agree .

    Wallace was disgraceful that day and deserved retribution for what he did to Grinters wrist.

    Yes we did thoroughly intimidated.  It was a disgrace, they way we went to water under provocation.  the hawks sides would have sttod tall and like a kangaroo would not have taken a backward step. We folded up the card table and left the venue.

    Really the only one I recall to show some fight during the intimidation's, was Schwarta.

    And in the game we barely fired a shot in anger.

    Here are some stats for that game, set for tackles...  but check the other team stats.  We were getting pants'd, and we were also shown how to,  in tackles,  as well.

    https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/fts_match_statistics?mid=1284&sby=6#t2

    Some here think we were good, we weren't.  we were not a team to truly play for one another.  We were a team of talents who played as individuals mostly. And Most were soft in the physical stakes.  

    Going through the list from this game, I would feel safe with only 9 players, to really have my back in any meaningful way.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     

    We lost what toughness we scrapped together in the 80's, sometime thru the mid 90's.  Became Hollywood pretenders, with heaps of wasted talent.

    This continued right thru until Roosy started to bring back some pride in our contested football style.

    We are on the way back to playing like Men, again,,,, but still aways to go. 

     

    We are apprentices, atmo. imo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
