Fair analysis although maybe a bit harsh on Grundy. I thought he was very good in a couple of his solo ruck games. Gawn as a forward failed miserably though.

 

 

 

Chandler - great start dwindled

Grundy - didn't fit, sadly

Lever -  solid and reliable

May - dee fensive leader

McDonald - body failed him

McVee - hard work rewards

Melksham - sad season's end

Neal-Bullen - consistent, great contributor

Oliver - sorely missed midseason

Petracca - needed up forward

Petty - revelation until injured

Pickett - needs to focus

Rivers - fabulous consistent defender

Salem - thyroid or knee?

Schache - can;'t teach hardness 

Smith - improved every game

Spargo - needed first final 

Tomlinson - essential third tall 

Turner - needs more gametime

van Rooyen - solid debut season

Viney - never say die

Woewodin - looking like dad

thanks JoeBoy for anoyher season of reflections.

 

May - give him Bluey !

 

Thanks 'joeboy' for another great season....

The first & sometimes only post I go to after every game.

Not blooding JVR during the season last year was one of the biggest mistakes Goodwin and co. have made. Even 4-5 games would have been sufficient. VFL performance dictated it. Would have been better for the run. Woewodin got invaluable experience this year (and probably should have played a final).

EDIT: Woey should have probably replaced Langdon halfway through the year for a stretch of 6-7 games. Felt like him playing in the same squad as Huntet and Langdon was detrimental to both him and the team.

  • 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.
