Godfrey - Deadly right foot

people have always bagged godfreys kicking because people didnt realize that he is a right footer...his right foot is fantastic and his left (his weaker side) is average...haha


here are mine...

Bell - almost very good

Carroll - tight and reliable

Holland - clearly wins again

Ward - bad kicking early

Bizzell - reliable all day

Johnstone - injury early unlucky

Bate - very good early

McDonald - engine room again

Davey - kicking radar awry

Bruce - even worse kicking

Sylvia - excellent all class

McLean - bordering on elite

Neitz - damn injured knee

Robertson - best on ground

White - honest not dangerous

Johnson - very good skills

Petterd - mixed game today

Frawley - good defensively early

Green - two saving marks

Jones - bull like game

Wheatley - wonderful field kicking

Godfrey - right foot goal

Bell - becoming very valuable

Carroll - did his job

Holland - murdered big rocca

Ward - provided good run

Bizzell - the glue holding the backline together

Johnstone - fading into average, needs to bounce back

Bate - very handy playmaker, strong mark,

McDonald - consistent jmac again

Davey - bloody woeful game, needs to shake this.

Bruce - broken foot, or flat footy?

Sylvia - hard working forward

McLean - HE IS BACK!

Neitz - just another game

Robertson - coleman like domination

White - still got game

Johnson - rounding into a player

Petterd - a raw gun

Frawley - needs more time

Green - stood up when needed

Jones - gave us strength at stoppages

Wheatley - provides penetrating drive

Godfrey - homebrand version of judd

 

Davey - bloody woeful game, needs to shake this.

I thought Davey was pretty quiet for a lot of the match but improve as it went on.

Poor Bruce... what a dog of a day for him.

ROBBO!! ROBBO!! ROBBO!!

More good performances from our younger squad, Bate, Sylvia, Bell, Mclean, Petterd, Paul Johnson (who took some very fine overhead marks, you may recall) all had pretty good days out.

How satisfying was it to see first Sylvia and Mclean just burst through people to set up goals, one after the other?

And special mention for No. 2. I never had the priviledge of watching Robbie Flower play, but that little re-enactment by Jones of the swivel-around-the-man move that must be Flower's most replayed highlight was something special.

Loved Holland's scragging of Rocca. too. Spare a thought for all the poor buggers who had Rocca in their dream team.

And finally, a big special mention to the defenders coming back from wretched injury runs. A lot of us, myself included, were getting the feeling we might have seen the last of both Bizzell and Wheatley at AFL level. Bizzell was good all day with a tough job to do, Wheatley was just priceless. For once I enjoyed some daft commentator chat when they started talking about Wheatley's 'Big Weapon'. (The booming kick, I'm fairly sure)


Bell - Didak to bench

Ward - unusually hit targets

PJ - Better than White

White - Down on confidence

Jones - Leaps and bounds

Holland - The Gorilla Keeper

Frawley - Would prefer Warnock (but that will change in time)

Chook - Gun at 70% fitness

Rocca - Threw in towel

Never thought we would see these 3 words next to Daniel Ward's name...........

Daniel Ward - pin point pass

Have a look at the 53 second mark of the 2nd qtr - a piece of history! D Ward kicks a beautiful pass directly into Bruce!

I am only 1/2 joshing - I like Wardy.........

Ward - unusually hit targets

Roger, is that usually or unusually. I'm confused. I think Wards kicking is at best average. Today it was poor when it counted. There were a couple of times I was left shaking my head as his actions caused critical turnovers & goals to Cwod.

And what about Wardy's brilliant spoil and fierce tackle in that vital 3rd quarter? Get off his back guys!

And what about Wardy's brilliant spoil and fierce tackle in that vital 3rd quarter? Get off his back guys!

I was only half joking - I am not on his back - I think he has been a great servant of our club - I have said it many times before on this board. He gives his all!

Honestly - I am a fan. One of my kids even has Wardy's number on his back and Daniel is always delightful whenever he sees my little bloke - actually remembers him and says it is because there aren't too many kids running around with 10 on their backs.

He played a good game today and I applaud him for that!


ward has a pure red and blue heart, he bleeds for our club and i personally thought his efforts today were excellent. he is a hard running player who tries to always make a contest. A lot of players should follow in his on field work ethic.

I echo this!!!! I apologise if my earlier post has caused any angst........

Neitz - just another game

Are you serious?

Neitz was awesome today. He led up and dished off perfectly. He was crucial to us winning in the last quarter. A fantastic gutsy effort. I love McLean, but as long as Neitz is in the team HE IS THE MFC!

There is only one team I like beating more than Collingwood and that is Essendon. Looking forward to round 13 already! (A win against Richmond will be handy too!)


he played quite well the entire game, except for one terrible kick across goal. that one error doesnt make it a woeful game. other than that was good skills and contributed to many goals...

I was also at the game and can remember Davey making unforced errors by foot around the middle of the ground multiple times, so I'm pretty sure it wasn't just the one error. I wouldn't label it a woeful game, but I also don't think he played quite well & just made the one noticeable error.

Bell - well rounded game

Carroll - did his job

Holland - shut down boofhead

Ward - traded bodies with davey today. Best kicking Ive ever seen from Ward.

Bizzell - decent defenders game

Johnstone - influential before injury

Bate - vice like hands

McDonald - usual reliable junior

Davey - traded bodies with ward. Worst kicking Ive ever seen from him

Bruce - crap goal shooting

Sylvia - great flankers game (how good was the shrugging opponents and running off them to drill it onto the chest of leading forwards! That passage to Bate was simply magic!)

McLean - another great game

Neitz - is captain courageous

Robertson - robbo of 05

White - average rucking game

Johnson - steadily getting better

Petterd - not as good

Frawley - looked abit lost

Green - quiet, strong mark though

Jones - continues to impress

Wheatley - fantastic field kicking!

Godfrey - what a goal!

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
