    Actually agree - no one rates -youā€™ve possibly overstated how good ( bad ) they all were !! Perfect call they were terrible - canā€™t do the basics like mark.Ā 

    My three word summaryĀ 

    Pathetic - Amateur -Sad !

  • Quote

    Fritsch -Ā  our cleanest player

    His game wasn't world beating but he won some huge 1/1s and his skills in and around the contest and at ground level were excellent.Ā 

    Hunt - Handy up forward.Ā 

    Hunt played well up forward, and deserves his spot in the side. Credit where credit is due, he is trying hard to reinvent himself and signs are promising.

    He's playing like a guy who's missed a heap of footy and has also missed the gym. Looked more effective forward than on a wing, and he sure as hell isn't playing down back with his lack of will for the contest.

    Right now I'm thinking the best case scenario is getting some VFL in to him and maybe he has another few cracks at games later in the year, he's not lightening which I said when we got himĀ but I think he has enough pace and skill to be something, but he looks entirely like a player who needs another preseason training at a high level before he'll play well.

    I'm thinking its time we get back to the draft this year and get in some talent. because we are lacking much.

    I really likeĀ this three word summary, JB. Thanks. I'd add:

    Backs:

    1. Guard a man

    2. One man up

    Mids:

    1. Run both ways

    2. Kick to us

    Forwards:

    1. Make some space

    2. Mark one, occasionally

    Coaches:

    1. Are you blind?

    2. Earn your pay

    Agree:

    backs one man up just drives me crazy!

    mids run both ways, in particular Jones just awful example as Captain, Iā€™m above chasing!

    forwards make some space, agree 100%, donā€™t all run to same space!

    coaches: Backline disorganised, would love to hear from someone who attends training, theyĀ canā€™t possibly coach lets allĀ fly together?

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the clubā€™s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the clubā€™s perspective, and the teamā€™s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarksonā€™s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed ā€” roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.Ā  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
