The odd splattered disposal is a feature of Hunt’s game in general unfortunately, particularly by hand. I place him in a similar category to Frost - plays an exciting style of game and does a lot right, but always a chance to do a few things in a game that make your eyes water.

Surprised at the negativity on Jones’ game. I thought he had a pretty tidy game, especially considering he was on for the entire second half without break. Where and when were these terrible mistakes?

I thought Jones was one of our best. His spearing kick to Tmac was a ripper but it bounced off Tmac’s chest it was that good.

    Agree. Really liking him at HB. His kicking has been excellent and goes some way to balancing the woeful kicking of Frost and Fritter.

    Weiderman- Nearly there game

    Fine line between a good game and bad game, kicks those 2 goals that he one in the first and one in the second he has a good game, missed both badly and it goes the other way.

    Having just recovered from wedding + post wedding "recovery" function (I can't keep up these days), I've just watched the reply -

    Frost does seriously good things when under pressure - it is a bit of a wild ride, but his closing speed and bravery are priceless, I reckon.

    Mostly agree, only ones I'd change personally are...

    Viney - Bullocking but dumb.

    Frost - Contract extension time.

    Brayshaw - Should be dropped.

    Dunkley - Coupla nice moments.

     

    I think lgical football people would drop a few before Gus. Otherwise agree wtrh post.

    Sure, finally decided to lay a tackle once he was put in the middle, but still seems to be struggling to get around to contests. 2 clearances is poor IMO, and his disposal is not any better. Just think he's been 'off' all year and if he's carrying a niggle (which I've heard is the case) he should be sent off to get right for preseason.

     

    The reson he did not have many clearances is because he is not in there as much as last year.  Pretty hard to get a clearance when you are told to be 30 m away

    Jones. You're joking. 

    Dunkley. Some good things under pressure 

    May. Saved the game.

    Petty. Shows potential 

    Frost. Starting 22 in 2020

    Neal bullen. B grade

    Viney. Not a thinking footballer

    Oliver. Leadership in spades

    Frost - B&F top 10.

    Agree with everything bar Dunkley.  Like Matthews said about Watts' first game, I didn't see any component to hang a hat on.

    Lockhart - Courage courage courage.

    We're talking about yesterday's game, and he played plenty of time in the middle.

    • 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 club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — 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.  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.

    • 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.
