I know I am one of the worst offenders. I have made a lot of posts since yesterdays debacle, the majority of them irrational and maniacal

If you scan back to the board after round 2 last year, and round 3, it would have been much of the same thing

We will destroy the Cats next week, make no mistake. They are an average team, whom we have the wood over in the last few of years.

the Demons are just slow starters, we should know that by now

A multi pronged forward line next week of Miller, Sylvia, Yze, PJ Davey and Newton will give Geelong fits. They wont know who to put on who.

HF - Sylvia Miller Davey

F - Yze Newton PJ

Sylvia to boot 5, Newtton 4

Order will be restored this Sunday at the G

Demons by 45!!!

Aaah yes. YM is the cheese in the demonland gourmet sandwich.

My prediction. A loss by 1 point.

Why?

Have a look at the dees form compared to that of this time last year...

Round 1 2006 - Woeful opening. No players playing well. Just the one good one who was unexpected (Carroll).

Round 1 2007 - Woeful opening. No players playing well. Just the one good one who was unexpected (Moloney).

Round 2 2006 - Slightly better. Played two good quarters. Gameplan was a touch more improved. The two lesser quarters were downright diabolical. 10 goal loss.

Round 2 2007 - Slightly better. Played two good quarters. Gameplan was a touch more improved. The two lesser quarters were downright diabolical. The only reason it wasn't a 10 goal loss was the Hawks' inaccuracy.

Round 3 2006 - A game we had no right to even get close to winning. Crows had been pretty good, and we were away. Thanks to some inspirational efforts, among them a shot on goal at the death by one Aaron Davey we nearly got up. The three early losses galvanised the team and we went on a spree for the next 12 weeks losing one match to the eventual premiers.

Round 3 2007 - ?

This could be an all time classic Yze_Magicism.

I should just let it go, but I can't. I need to comment on this.

As it stands, right now on form, that could be the WORST forwardline ever. EVER!!!!!!

The two "big names" of the group in Davey and Yze are so badly out of form, they will be lucky to get a game. Newton, if he plays, will be making his debut in senior football. Sylvia has had an interrupted pre season, and while he will probably be picked this week, in his brief senior career for Melbourne, hasn't gone close to even looking like kicking 5 goals in a game. Do I need to comment on PJ? Perhaps a good start for him would be to get his hands above his head to take a mark. Then he can focus on dominating a game of AFL football.

You left out Miller, who actually had a dip yesterday. But I think 3 goals in a game is the maximum you'll get out of him.

The only fits that forwardline will produce, is the fits of laughter I had when you suggested it will kick a score big enough to beat the Cats by 45 points.

I'm not writing Melbourne off for this week, footy is a funny game. But I can't see a 45 point margin, especially if you are relying on the likes of Newton, Sylvia and PJ to kick a winning score.

since there has been some hindsight in this thread re last year and this years performances, I don't suppose someone could do a similar comparison to the errrrr mood of this board in comparison to the same time last year?

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
