MFC is a 3 goal better side with Oscar gone

It is difficult to comment on Oscar, such is the sentiment of DL contributors to his game and successive performances. We all wish him well at another club but our combined consciousness reduces our ongoing confidence in his game both now and in the future. At present, it does look like we are a 3-goal, better side without him.

    Before there was Oscar McInerney, there was OMAC. 

    I note he received the ol' DCM today. Loved him, and he did well to almost get to 100 games.

    Hmm....

    Can't say I agree with this at all.  

    Don't really want a pile on here because he's career is officially over, so I'll leave it at that.

    Played with a fractured back from 19 years old onwards. Good career all things considered. 

     

    Smart guy - onto bigger and better things from here I reckon.

    Jake just got to OMacs Melbourne goal tally. Both were rippers and I went nuts each time. Nicest bloke and I wish him well with the rest of this life stuff.

    Played in a Prelim final for Melbourne. Not many in the past 50 years can say they did that.

    Another year like this one for Tomlinson next year as a 30 year old with his contact ending, and you'd just about rookie Omac as depth on half the money instead.

    Had decent natural ability but never had the confidence/physicality to make it

    Good luck to OMAC, whatever his next step is.  Would be behind Turner and Tommo at the dees, and the Blues gave him a shot.  Another AFL gig might be a stretch given his recent injury history, but I Will remember him as a demon who tried his heart out week in, week out for us.

    I don’t see the point in regurgitating negative opinions of his calibre whilst he played for us and I think it’s pretty poor.

    Best of luck for the future OMac, not that you’d be reading this.

    O Mac started the last two seasons well for the Blues until his back started playing up. Looked like he was going to hold a regular spot in the backline, according to some Carlton fans he was ahead of Young at the start of this year.

    Most . . . really? I wonder what the evidence is for that assertion.

    I follow all the ex-Deez in the AFL. I wonder if 'most' on 'Land do as well.

    • 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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
