Sorry I know there are other threads about this but I just went to the Demons website and the stats thing said Maloney made the most tackles of any Melbourne player last week. He is a bloody champion I cannot BELIEVE we are dropping him.. All day I've been reading and listening to media outlets crapping on about our football club's lack of spirit, lack of supporters how bad we are, how we are going to be relocated or merged etc etc etc... The last thing our club needs is one of our best, hardest at the pill, gutsiest players uninjured, playing for the seconds.. It's STUPID by the coach/ selection panel, why doesn't anyone stop this foolishness!! It almost looks like we've given up at round 2. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

There must be a good reason Beamer was dropped we don't know about. I would reckon DB wants a win this week so i doubt it was done lightly.

would walk into my 22, but DB knows a lot more than me, and i trust there is a good reason, either injury related or tactically.

Moloney is good, not great. But he is HARD!!!. Better hard and average than not-hard and good.

That's the time one of the mods should lock* the thread :P

Fair enough you want to get your POV out there, but use one of the other threads instead of creating a new topic.

*or merge it into one of the existing threads

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
