Newton could have had about 9 goals today. Would have been BOG or at least the most dominant forward had he kicked straight. Has had about 4 assists too.

22 point the margin- robertson 4, saunter 3, newton huges 2, liddel, garland 1 some of the goal scorers.

newton very impressive. what a shame he couldnt kick 5 and really press for selection. he could have.

robbo will definitely play next week meaning he probably won't get another chance this year unless dunn or miller get dropped or injured

ok thats great to hear....

what exactly has Juice kicked(and how many scoring assists) in fact can i just have all his stats if someone has them when the game is finished hes gotta be pushing for selection next week if not the week after ....

good to see robbo back on target back from injury....

robbo was interviews on 97.7fm.

he said it was good fun playing for sandy, and was impressed with their inability to win posession from the contests.

seems certain to be playing for the demons next week, as he is clearly a level above vfl. in fact he is one of the better afl players going around so will be a gerat addition to the team.

surely daniher can't ignore newton forever. he kicked 2, i missed 3 gettables, directly involved in atleast 2 others (one in which he got a bloke holding the ball but advantage was payed to sautner who kicked the goal instead of newts)

Juice kicked 2.6!!! At least 2 of those were rushes of blood to the head that he should have avoided, but other3ise he played a mature game. Would have had 25+ touches playing at CHF, as well as doing all manner of other things like tackling and intercepting kick-ins...

As far as assists, I think I counted about 4... Shame. Would have been nice to say he kicked 4+ 3 weeks in a row... But...

Juice played another ripper today, and his side got over the line. That's the important thing.

commentators say that very even performance.

commentators opinions:

sautner prevented, "but it was telling that he and robbo spoiled each other."

impressed by robbo, had a hand in 6 or 7

wheatley miserly in defence, link man across hb

bizzell terrific in the middle or down back

poyas cutting across hb

like the look of gallagher

summers in and out of the game

hughes - only played for 2 quarters, livewire when he came on the ground

holland down back an old head.

no mention of newtown. sounded to me via their very bias call that he was very, very good

thanks for the info DD was greatly appreciated does anyone think Newton has any sort of chance in the next 2 or 3 weeks to play for Melbourne???

pressure on miller is huge now. with robbo coming back, he really should be dropped anyway, and newtown MUST be close to debuting.

great to see hughes sounding impressive, and i'd prefer wheatley to ward or brown. i'm positive he could play on their players at least as defensively as they can, and be better skilled when he has the ball into the bargain.

he's always played as a medium tall player on tall players. it'd be great to see him play as a medium tall on slightly smaller players. i think he might have the agility to do fairly well.

it seems very clear to me that the demons coaching staff are desperate to find another quality k.p backman. they have tried holland, warnock, bizzel, ferguson and others with limited success...

frawley is clearly the big hope to become a quality k.p backman. the coaching staff will play him after 1 good vfl performance, of that i am sure. (unlike newton who must impress for 10 weeks before getting a look in).

so...how did he play??? does he warrant selection? will it be soon?

Newton would have to be among the best 3 Zebs in recent weeks, and among them for the year.

Will he play? Probably not. He'd have to move heaven and earth to get a game at the moment I reckon.

What's weird is that this year there haven't been too many demons players I've been excited to watch. Maybe Beamer, Petterd, Bate, Bell... Juice is up there with them, and he's not even playing in the red & blue...

What did he do? Hit on ND's daughter or something?

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
