It is funny, what will be even funnier is when he comes out and plays a blinder against his old team like most of them do, helloe to the Wiz, Scotty Thompson and Darren Jolly.

    Leigh Matthews usually comes out and pumps up an opposition player before a game. This week he has changed tac (maybe because we haven't got anybody worthy of pumping up) and put the acid on one of his own.

    Brisbane cannot seriously be unhappy with Trapper. He is playing the exact role he was recruited for. If they wanted another Simon Black they would have looked elsewhere.

    I think Leigh is playing mind games.

    Nothing i didnt know about Travis when he played for us really

    He has had good vision and ball delivery skills all his career which leaves us with his lack of ability to win contested ball

    Anyway thats Leighs problem now

    Lethal's bluffing. Trav's won two games for them this season. And it's was highlighted again on Saturday night on 'The Fifth Quarter' that a mark he took, Robert Walls said "He wouldnt have taken that mark at MFC".

    That's how soft we are!!!

    Now, early warning people - dont blame Nathan Carroll when Bradshaw kicks 10, cause it's gonna come SCREAMING outta the middle!!!!!

    Incisive.

    I would have thought Robert Walls comment is more a damning assessment of TJ's playing attitude at MFC over 10 years than a go at the MFC team.

    Thanks for the early warning on Carroll. I would not blame Carroll as I know he is not good enough for a player with the smarts of Bradshaw and your estimate of 10 is spot on.

    Its no wonder that when Carroll's name was put on the trade table last year by the Club, it was met with laughter and derision by the other Clubs. Hmmmm. <_<

    I actually made Jonathan Brown my Supercoach captain this week just cos he was up against the Dees

    *edit*

    and weighing into the Johnstone debate - haven't been all that impressed with him so far this year so I tend to agree with Matthews. He's been a contributer without having a big influence on a game yet

    Haha. Good post.

    Exactly what will happen to be honest. I was sad to see Travis go though, and I think we are missing him quite alot.

    Just lethal playing mind games. This REV up will no doubt cause travis to rack up 30 touches against us.

    The real moral of this story, if you have a dream team, this week is a good week to use Trapper!

    At least with the new game plan there is no insider knowledge that TJ will be able to share.

    Then again it doesn't look like our current players have any either. :wacko:

    • 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.
