Pretty good this week joeboy.  I think you're a little harsh on Jetta, only because I think him being unsighted is a good thing.  It means he's playing his role down back and doing it with minimal fuss.

Otherwise it's pretty much spot on from the snippets and highlights I've seen and read.

Frost still turns it over. He’s looking pretty good but next week will tell a clearer tale

Didn’t see anything get past OMac so not sure what you’re saying there

Please back this up with a Qtr and approx times. I did break the seal but I only saw the JL momentum killer that ended in a Dogs goal.

Omac- Strong and Dependable

Punched well, bodied well, I thought he played well. 

 

Frost - Disposal lets down

Used his pace well and strong in the air but very sloppy by foot.  Hope he improves in this area because I'm a fan.

I agree.  Frost does turn it over.  But I am comforted by the fact the Frost can get back to the goal line to pressure a certain goal.  He will improve with continuity and faith.  More important than that is Frost is essential to our team that presses, yet needs to get back to goal when the opposition cut through.

Frost is really bugging me at the moment, he does all the hard stuff well, then kicks it with pinpoint accuracy to the opposition.

That is Frost.

That's a fresh interpretation of the word surpassed I'm assuming?  ?

Bernie has been a great contributor during tough times, but he’s rapidly declining now. Lack of an obvious replacement at Casey is his best hope for continuing this season. What’s his contract situation next year?

I have not been a great fan of Frosty, but have never ever doubted his efforts. He has been better since returning because he provides abig strong bloke ib defence. However his disposal does leave a little bit of improvement. Maybe we learn to use his good points and cover for any deficiencies

Take exception to the above. Applaud your 3 word analysis with the rest who aren’t quoted. ??

 

Mine on these:-

Jones - perhaps his worst

Vince - kicking was inefficient

Frost - doesn’t think ahead

Hibberd - Few deplorable/costly decisions 

JKH - One good tackle. (Fullstop!)

Oscar - Only one error

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
