Frawley - suspect under pressure

Green - match saving mark

Jones - classy and aggressive

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!

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
