    JVR — solo forward crucified

    I'm not saying your wrong JB.

    It's a difficult job to rate with only 3 words.

    And I do appreciate and enjoy your work.

    But according to your assessment, 17 players were below par. Some a fair way below( no pun intended).

    I'm not saying your wrong either.

    A pretty damning summation.

    MFC.....where's the pride?

    ......where's the passion?

    ...where's the enthusiasm?

    ...where is Waldo?

    At this stage anyone's a good substitute.

    What has happened to him?

    I thought last year would be a breakout year.

    It wasn't so I thought maybe this year.

    Sadly he has gone so far backwards, so quickly, it's hard to comprehend.

    And here's me thinking not long ago, he's our next DS or DN.

    Silly me.

    Agree with the Windsor sentiments. Goodwin is trying turn him into Jayden Hunt which is laughable. The way we are set up with no clear exit does him no favors.

    Hope to god we end up with Longmire before Windsor gets destroyed. A lot of similarities with Gulden in the sense he was drafted as a an agile wingman with great agility with little experience as an inside on ball player.

    Longmire turned an already elite outside player who can hit the 45 degree kicks with ease into a crucial piece of the Swans on ball brigade.

    If Windsor can become half as good, I’ll be happy.

    Well funny about that there were people on this site thinking that was going to work never was going to work Windsor is an outside player with a run

    We have to many players out of form. Obvious.

    We have not had a strong KPF since BBB finished up.

    Petty or T Mc are not rhe answer forward although Petty be rotated Forward/Back with Turner?.

    Jeffo will take more tine

    We need to recruit a tall via draft and or trade.

    Maybe should have got Membry or Darling for a year or 2?

    • 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.
