    Nah, it's just a bit of fun to expose the footy acumen of many here, not to mention the jellybelly culture.  I'd hate to be in the trenches with some of them.

    "Goodwin can't coach or has lost the players"

    "Not going on the camp was a huge mistake"

    "Viney's career could be over"

    "Brayshaw should give the game away for the sake of his health"

    "Trading Jack Watts is a major mistake"

    "Weideman is never going to make it"

    And the commentary on Hogan is too numerous to mention.

     

    The flogs and snowflakes who frequent this forum are many and a sight to behold and they need to (occasionally) be held account for their really stupid "opinions".

    I think the time out has done Jack some good.

    Putting a positive spin on things.

    He's still a young player and very much learning the game but showed some real footy smarts on Friday night that the old Jack might not have.

    Exhibit A:

    Loved how he ran out to the opposite pocket when he saw Hannan running toward goal down the members flank.

    Poor old Blicavs didn't have a clue which way to go until it was too late. Hannan nearly fell for it as well, luckily he showed the composure to kick the goal in the end.

    I reckon the old Viney wouldn't have been so cagey.

    To be honest I have had resrvation"s re Jack. My fears were that he would upset the chemistry of the Midfield.

    I have to admit I was wrong, because rjay's comment reflect the more mature way he approached his game. Maybe his time in the "gameday coaches area" would have given hi m a wider perspective than "see ball, GET Ball

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.

      It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!
