  1. No worries mate. I have never been overly critical of OMac. He has made errors as any kid thrust into the position before they were ready (IMHO) would be but I understand why the powers that be decided to persist with Oscar over some more experienced heads in Dunn and Garland (last year). That faith has started to pay off and this week was the culmination of that. He will only get better and better as will his decision making. As I said I am not an expert. I suffer from MFCSS so it is often hard for me to see silver linings. Omac was wrapped in Gold yesterday. Please do call in. That goes to everyone else. We want to hear from other Demonlanders. We all have different opinions but we're all Demons.
  2. I called his first half (against the Pies) how I saw it. He made a couple of crucial errors which have been a big part of his game since he came in. I gave credit where credit was dues when I applauded his second half. It wasn't that he was outstanding, he simply did not fuck it up. I did not watch the first half replay as I am not a sadist so my analysis was based on the emotions of the game. I never claimed to be an expert and if you would like to contribute to the program please call in. We would love to hear different views from different supporters. We are fans not experts. Omac was excellent against the Dogs.
  3. Lyon this morning on SEN. LEWIS WON’T SEE OUT DEAL: LYON AFL great Garry Lyon believes Jordan Lewis will struggle to see out his three year contract at Melbourne. Lewis is in the first year of a new deal after leaving Hawthorn in the off-season. Lyon said Lewis was having a “good, solid season” but questioned whether the four time premiership player will be able to keep up with the pace of the game in the years to come. “I’d be surprised if he plays the whole three years,” Lyon said on SEN radio. “He has influenced games more than Sam (Mitchell). He has been enormous on occasions, behind the footy, throwing himself behind the ball, controlling, dictating, his ball use is superb still. All those things have been great. “There will be moments where Goody (coach Simon Goodwin) will look at it and think, this is too quick for Jordan. We need to get him off or deploy him somewhere else.” Lyon highlighted the Queen’s Birthday clash against Collingwood as a prime example of Lewis struggling with the pace. “That game on Monday was lightning quick in the first half. Jordan had two possessions half way through the second quarter. “The game was too quick for him. As the pace came off and the heat came out
he started to have more impact. “That was great because he is a smart ball user.”
  4. Wondering what he'd look like in a Dees jumper? Wonder no more.

    All we need now is to draft a Roger and a Viktor and we'll have the set.

    MELBOURNE will induct former captains David Neitz and Shane McGrath into the club’s Hall of Fame when it holds its 10th anniversary of the Foundation Heroes. Foundation Heroes was founded in 2008 by the late, great Jim Stynes. This year’s event will be open for all members and supporters to attend – not just for Foundation Heroes. Neitz, one of Melbourne’s greatest ever players, featured in a club record 306 games from 1993-2008. He captained the club in 175 matches from 1998-2008 and kicked a career total of 631 goals – both club records in their respective statistics. McGrath, who captained Melbourne in 1950, was a member of the club’s 1941 premiership. Despite missing three seasons due to war service, he later returned to play in Melbourne’s 1948 side. He is regarded as one of Melbourne’s greatest full backs. This year’s Foundation Heroes event promises to be a special night of celebration and fundraising. 2017 Foundation Heroes – details Date: Wednesday 31 May Venue: Melbourne Town Hall Time: 6.30pm for 7pm Dress: Lounge suit Tickets: $275 per person Includes sit-down gourmet dinner, a premium beverages package and first class entertainment Current players, directors and members of the MFC Hall of Fame will be in attendance Click here to purchase tickets http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2017-04-28/greats-to-be-honoured-at-foundation-heroes

    Good idea. I'll have a think about it and see if I can find a vendor who can make them.
  10. I doubt that he would be if he ever read this thread ? However, he's very welcome anyway. Cheers
  11. You can "win in round two" which hasn't happened since round two of 2005. WJ is writing his next match preview around this phenomenon.
