Does anyone know how Smith performed?

McVee a lock in the top 10 in the B&F. I wouldn't be surprised if he is top 7 or top 8.

Bit tough on Bill Laurie who came on late in the third and had 9 touches (4 contested), 2 inside 50's and 4 score assists.

He was great.  Right man at the right time

Laurie had 9 touches, 4 score involvements and 2 assists in a quarter and a bit. I thought he was good when he came on.

No goals, 7 disposals, 5 tackles, 3 marks, 206 metres gained. I thought he did well today, applying pressure. Bit tough to measure a crowded forward line on the small SCG.  But I am a bit of an optimist and barrack for all of them.

Yes I know it’s very inconsiderate of me, and obviously it’s music to the ears of many, but now is the opportunity  for any budding 3 worded trainees to give it a go and open up a whole new career for a week..

joeboy - pulled the rug!

Salem worked his way into it. Pivotal in the last quarter.

Also covered by Pink in more recent times.

Alice was Alice Liddell, who urged Charles Dodgson ( Lewis Carroll) to write the story of Alice in Wonderland.

Bit harsh only a 2nd or 3rd game (after injury in his first). O thought he did not look overawed and shwoed a lot of potential (and I am not his Aunty!!)

Bill Laurie has shown enormous improvement. Give him a few more games and he will be very handy

I dont think it was too harsh at all

He was "Fumbly on ccasions"!

I noticed he had a lot of clever touches in not much space.  Possibly too willing to hand the ball off to better credentialled team-mates, but you often see that with guys just finding their feet.  If he starts to back himself in a bit more he'll be more eye-catching.

Bang bang to be precise 

To be precise I included an earlier ,"bang" to set the scene.........gap......"bang bang."

Which made it 3 words.to be even more precise I might have needed 5 words .

Is that OK  with you?

Very good appraisal

  • 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.

  • 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.
