Sounds like the only change we will make might be a mid in for a half forward (eg. Tyson for Hannan).  Rightly, Vanders is still a few weeks away, but clearly they still rate him and think he can have an impact for our side going forward.

Can't wait for the game on Saturday night!

    WTF does this even mean " Goodwin: As a club, we’re starting to expose ourselves to these situations. "

    He is saying pragmatically, the more exposure to 'finals' pressure games the better we get at them... and that is only good for the playing list to 'learn' how to play and experience it directly. That's WTF he meant by that.

    Staggering that Goodwin would use words in a press conference. What was he thinking.

    I'm staggered that we need to have the same conversation on this topic every week.

    I heard he is going to mime the presser next week.

    Give the script to Marcel Marceau. That'll be entertaining

    Sick of the these bloody words. Every press conference he just keeps talking. 

    If he doesn't express his views via interpretive dance next week then I say we look for a new coach.

    Haha! I’ve always been a hater of Barrett, I reckoned he’s mellowed this year and has been quite positive on Dees for a change!

    Interpretive dance would work.

    lighten up!  He might hate it as much as you do.  It is part of the job.  If he chooses to use ‘words’ to say as little as possible, then I’m ok with that provided they win.

    I wood say that means, we as a group are starting to actively seek/desire the bigger challenges:  to take them head on:   instead being a bit sheepish about the bigger power clubs.

     

    We are starting to lose the mental hangover; after being a beaten down Club.  And Goody is right. 

    We won't lay down any more, with this current culture building within the Mf club;  at the moment.

    How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

    The words are not for the players; they are for the supporters and interested people. even opponents.

    It's the players who are starting     to set the tone on-field,,, following all the coaches and assistant coaches since Roosy.

     

    He's relaying where we are at to those who care.

    • 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.
