Brock McLean

Madness
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

He played well but I'd like to see him play out the year with this form or something close to it.

I'd rather Neita retain the captaincy and Chook get it in 2009.

    Nice article on the Melbourne site:

    McLean narrows focus but widens appeal

    He labelled his last 3 weeks as 'crap'... how can you not love him? :lol:

    Also spoke very well about lack of discipline.

    “If you are angry, just walk away or take it out on a strong tackle or something like that.

    It can be frustrating but you have to think of the team first.

    It can be the difference between a good game or a bad game or a close win or close loss.”

    Great minds think alike ;)

    I loved that article, better than the usual, we need to lift and be more accountable etc etc

    Robbo will be captain next week so there is no point even discussing it. :)

    No, hence he won't be captain next week.

    he has not played well enough,

    his form needs to be consistant.....

    he doesnt need added pressure on his shoulder just yet

    Never seemed to bother Bruce or Green...

    And while I agree he doesn't need the extra pressure, it's a moot point. We're not out there to make finals. The more learning experiences we can get into him the better. And it's Brock, if in doubt, put him under pressure. With the exception of the last 2 weeks, he's thrived under pressure...

    Is it not his 200th game next week? I'm sur ei heard that, and if it is he will captain the side.

    As much as i'm fan of Brock Mclean, i'm kinda over talking about him.

    He WILL be a great playa.

    He WILL be our next captain.(barring #$^$%&$&%^*)

    He WILL be our franchise playa.

    So could ppl stop feeding the small feeble minds who continually take pot shots at Brock.

    "It's not Brock's fault u were mistreated as a child."

    Sorry but what don't you understand?!

    Yes, it's Robbo's 200th but he isn't in the leadership group (and rightfully so), and therefore cannot captain the side.

    It hasn't been done in the past for players such as Jeff White in their milestone games and will therefore not be done for Robbo.

    Case closed!

    Now back on to Brock... :wub:

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
