    I reckon that was Jeffo's first ever pre-season game in the 1's against AFL opposition, in previous years he's been in the VFL squad

    Yep. Spot on.

    One of the positives of the day was Tom Campbell. Held his own against one of last yearโ€™s best ruckman in the AFL in Xerri. Also showed unexpectedly competent skills for a ruck, highlighted by some quality set shots at goal.

    Itโ€™s reassuring to know that if Max has a niggle, we can rest him with the knowledge that we have a secondary ruckman that will be competitive. Weโ€™re (touch wood) clearly not having a repeat of the Freo debacle last year when the game was over before it started re: conceding hit out and clearance dominance.

    Lastly, sounds like heโ€™s has a great pre season, looks fit for his age and by all reports is a cracking bloke.

    Looks to have good synergy already with the midfield group too, which is fantastic. It took Grundy along time to have that connection but TC appears to have it already.

    Do we have any update regarding AMW?

    Jagga has done an ACL from what appeared to be a far less nasty entanglement than poor Andyโ€™s.

    Nothing yetโ€ฆ Iโ€™m guessing we will hear something soon.

    Fingers crossed it isnโ€™t an ACL.

    Didn't look great at all. Hoping for a bit of a miracle.

    Awww thanks Lex. ย Thatโ€™s exactly why I needed to share this. These are things you donโ€™t know are happening because who would report on a story like theirs? No scandal, no misbehaviour, nothing sensational therefore whoโ€™s gonna read it?

    As for cute, it took every fibre of my being to resist scooping Nan up and running off with her under my arm when no one was looking. Iโ€™d put her in my backpack (wouldnโ€™t even need to fold her in half) and sheโ€™d soon settle in with me and my chooks in St Albans. Seriously though, she actually thanked me for making her feel so welcome in my town. ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿฅน

    Haha, chooks! That's as St Albans as it gets! Explains your baseball bat post a while ago ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคฃ

    This is probably partly why he was feeling the pressure, the weight of expectation. Late in the game he was in the goal-square and play was up the other end. We were yelling encouragement to him but a little more than we would had it been anyone else because you could see he was down on himself. He looked around at us and tried to smile. I said โ€œYouโ€™re doing so well, Matty!โ€ But he shook his head as in, no Iโ€™m not. He needs as much of a confidence boost as possible. Idk if itโ€™s been mentioned on here before but at training the biggest and loudest cheers coming from the boys can be heard when itโ€™s Jeffo whoโ€™s just slotted one. They get around him like nothing else, especially Max.ย

    If it is season ending, I would be approaching the AFL to replace him, as it is unfair that the SSP end was in the middle of a round of match sims. All sims should be completed before the cut off date, or none of them. There is obviously more chance of injury in contact games, than training.

    Good call 'Redleg'...ahead of the game with this one.

    • 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.ย

    • 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.
