So many new threads it's becoming impossible to keep up, 80% of it including pressers, odds, buddy threads should be in the pre match review/discussion. Seems a new thread every time somebody says something. Makes it near impossible to find where you commented on a particular topic as they are all jumbled everywhere.

    I normally copy and paste into relevant threads, I don’t start one unless some kind of substance. The last few weeks have been ridiculous. If you trolls can point me to a thread I’ve started with odds, normal weekly presser then let me know.

    The price of the team winning and the site becoming more popular. Visits are up and there is more excitement. As site owner if there are more people discussing more topics then it is a good problem to have.

    There are ways to go directly to the last post that you read on a topic. Click the red star or circle next to a topic to take you to the last post read or from the homepage click any topic and it will take you to that last post read.

    I will take it under advisement to merge all topics into one mega topic. ?

    Did you start a thread for this?

    I don't think they were trolling you just pointing out that you started a new thread to complain about all the new threads.

    It does become a little confusing, Mate. Point taken and agreed.

    Good to see more popularity it is a great problem to have but there are a couple that could probably be merged. Was just in the bathwater one thinking it was the Non-MFC games one. One brain melt thread is probably enough!

    I can see the OP's point - I mean, who cares how Picket Fence rates every player after every game - can't it just go into post match rather than assaulting my senses on the front page?

    I hope we can stick to topic in this thread.

    There's a thread of truth in that.......

    I suppose it might well be somewhat ironic...a thread denoting...threads, but a pm to a mod isn't going to open it to discussion...as we now are. So for that...I'll allow the irony lol

    I have to admit.... might there be cause for a more formal...media thread...save the Dozen upwards individual ones... especially for SEN ...maybe it can have its own ?

    It's not abnormal for many similar threads topics to get merged...seems bizarre to exasperate things with a new thread anytime someone trips, falls, or looks sideways at a training bag. 

    Could we not have a tread called "Pressers"  maybe all talk of a player just goes on in THAT players thread ?

    I tend to agree with Febes .. it's hard to keep up at times.

    A hard road to walk no doubt...balancing topics with clarity....and economy.

    I get what you're saying BB and that theory is fine for long time users of the site but anyone new coming along has to wade through 32 pages of the Mega Presser Thread to get to the latest one. 

    If there was 4 Presser threads on the homepage I'd merge them but I'm happy for there to be a separate thread for an interview of a player or coach on SEN for discussion on that particular interview. After a day or two it's gone and then there's another interview for a different player. Wouldn't want new people coming along haven't to wade through old interviews and discussions to get to the latest interview.

    • CASEY: Sydney

      The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After a disappointing loss in Alice Springs the Demons return to the MCG to take on the Magpies in the annual King's Birthday Big Freeze for MND game. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
