Ah, Clarry Choo Choo!??

Great great player, but just doesn’t  strike me as a leader. And if we don’t have success over the next couple of years other clubs will be circling like flies around the proverbial

    A vacancy will be created when Jones decides to step down & my thoughts are that wont be happening too soon. Maxy is the obvious choice to step in as VC or joint captain with Jack......

    Tom McDonald continues to impress, off the field & would come into some form of contention.

    From all reports Lever is held in a much higher regard than Brayshaw, & if he can stay injury free, then he may hold down a role but maybe 3 or 4 years away....

    Tmac ?

    You'd have someone who seem incapable of tackling...as a captain of any sort 

    A no for me.

    Couldn't disagree more.

    If there's been one consistent failing of this club since 2006, it's been our lack of leadership from within the playing group.

    This^

    I'd add the new rules with runners has added to our woes. We don't have the on field leaders to make up for the loss of communications/marshalling/instructions from the runners (until Lewis is back anyway).

    That's a strange comment considering that one of our current captains has had 1 & 2 tackles in last 2 games. Leadership extends beyond the footy field & Tom has proven quite literate & honest in front of the camera......instead of talking & promising [censored].

    A yes for me.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
