Things didn't look great on here at times during the Jones-Viney co-captaincy.

I thought about that, I was here for it, and while the forum could be feral, i don’t remember the opinion as being universal, just very vocal and at times uncouth. Is funny i logged on yesterday expecting near 100% happiness for the 1st time of all posters (barring the GF), we got about 98% positive.

I agree btw on next captain,  I’d put money on Hugh getting the gig, consistent with effort and tackles etc. Also he’s about the lone candidate.

Very happy with our stocks, I think any of Lever, Brayshaw, Petracca, Viney could do the gig tomorrow, Long term Rivers, Petty, maybe Sparrow.

    Fair play to Bears supporters - Read the Brissy board, 19-1 in favour of binning Zorko as Captain and pensioning him off next year, never seen such a negative sentiment by supporters to their own captain. Also just want to say Fagan is a super classy bloke, calling him an assistant does no one any credit, that team was a basket case and he turned it around in record time. He is humble and respectful. 

    Must agree, Fagan is classy, astute, articulate and knowledgeable. He communicates well and has achieved a great deal in a short timeframe with the Lions.

    McCluggage screams captain material to me.

    Zorko's a [censored]. I can't believe he's a captain of an AFL side.

    McCluggage is a relatively soft outside winger with beautiful skills. I wouldn't want him as my captain. At least Neale can drive the team forward when he wins clearances and impose himself on the contest.

    Yep. Neale is the only one I'd want if I was a Brisbane fan. Maybe Marcus Adams if they're looking at someone from left field? Just a guess though, I really know SFA about his leadership qualities.

    • 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.
