Sir Why You Little

Brad Miller played extremely well against Fremantle.

But if he wants to be CHF, HFF, or FF for the Melbourne Demons going forward he has to play like that more often.

Love his attitude but he's 24 and we need to see more from him.

So i hope Bailey Leaveas Him in the one area ALL YEAR-so he can learn his craft...

And, IMO, the abscence of Neitz makes a difference.

Now rather than having to stay up the ground and out of the "hot zone" for Nietz and Robbo, Miller can range from 25 to 75 metres out, within scoring range.

Perversely, the loss of Neitz may be the making of Brad Miller as a CHF.

The 7 to 10 marks he takes a week are now in the scoring zone, not in the square looking for a forward target.

Totally agree-which is why our Capt. has played his last game, and should be given a Heroes send off on Queens Birthday. Let us not give up on an entire season just yet

On ya Jeff. Still a flag left in you mate. Heard his interview on SEN the other morning

Make no mistake Jeff White wants to Hold that Grail Thing we all aspire to!

Great Call. After the first 20 picks its total pot luck.

I think after pick 4-5 it can be a complete gamble, everybody develops differently. At 17 the body is still growing. The pecking order in the Draft is just opinions but of course the media like to categorize everything

I am Going to have a Bet on The Demons to win. The team must learn to play 4 q's of hard footy-there's no other choice.

With his Confidence up he could be as good as Brereton was, Big call i know but i trully believe it.. He is strong and takes the ball one grab when he marks

Play him at CHF or Roaming the forward 50 metre Arc i say and always have. Could be a Great Forward-he is still young.

Bailey Knows AAMI Stadium so i will be fascinated to see how we play there

Who would have the Recruiters Job, i mean you are dammed if you do and dammed if you don't-Picking 17 Year olds is like Tattslotto.

James Hird. I rest my case.

Peter Vardy was a beauty in 2002. Thouroughly enjoyed watching him. Knew well where the goals were.

Ah yes, lets win less than 5 games, lose $1-1.5 mill and face the prospect of having no club in 3 years.

Great plan...

I agree. Lets actually try real hard to win. One Pick does not make a club. Judd and Buddy Franklin may get injured this year, changing the make up of the year considerably. Tanking really gets me sick in the Guts. Norm Smith would not codone it at all!!!! WIN

Full marks to the Kangaroos marketing staff.....

Have done extremely well in re-inventing the club!

Sod the Kangaroos they should be in Queensland by now. I Hate 'em!!

Stynes for President.

I attended a recent sportsman night where the speakers were Stynes, Voss, Sheedy and Hird.

The last 3 had nothing to say but football anecdotes. Stynes spoke about his life in Ireland, and I was fortunate to be able to ask a question from the floor about his life AFTER football and what motivated him regarding his youth work.

His answer. which took about 5 minutes, received applause across the room.

As we know, Jim is a class act, and the sooner he is seriously involved in the club the better.

Stynesy is a true class act, you only have to read his book from about 10 years ago, but is he qualified business wise to take on the presidency? Is it the best role for him-time will tell i suspect..

We won 5 games last year so i thort we were not eligable whatever happens-Don't want Cousins at Melbourne to be honest, bad influence

I can't remember.

Know the Long/Simmonds incident pretty well but have no idea what Wallis did (though I believe it involved Green?)

Yes Greeny was in Hospital by i think quarter time with a smashed up voice box. Oh i love the fact that wallis is able to call himself a premiership player. NOT

Similiar to Barry "Thug" Hall

yes I did go

Good to here Mate-I Know you love the club and we want as many at the 'G as poss.

I was just watching the start of AFL teams on fox.

First they were looking at st kildas next 5 games and Shaw said only against melbourne in round 10 is a certainty to win....

Second they were looking at the Rising star nominations for this year and they got to Aussie and Brian Taylor said that he was there on sunday and he basically doesnt rate him at all, he said he has no tricks, no speed or flare, basically he isnt anything special.

I hate this bloke, he always seems to give us crap all the time

Sorry thought i would vent

Danny Hughes certainly Hated Brian Taylor back in the eighties. Those games were legendary!! My Dad and i always said those two should have just been put on the back of a flat bed truck and driven round the 'G on any Queens Birthday Pre-Match!!

Nothing similar on a don's web site?

I wouldn't go anywhere near an Essendon chat site after what Dean Wallis and Michael long did in the 2000 GF. Pure Filth, i will never forget that....

Lol fair enough, I just thought it'd be a rare opportunity to see the best of the best that's all. Oh and I'm also Victorian...

Not a Melbourne Player in sight of the teams-so much for OUR 150 year Celebrations..I shall be going out tomorrow night, sadly have no interest in this game. I Love the Big V but we need to be playing South Aussie or the Sandgropers. That White Jumper for tomorrow night is a disgrace.

For 4 years now I have been going to about 12 games per year with my 2 kids (son 11 and daughter 9), plus a few games without them. From 2004 to 2006 they really wanted to come and we won more often than not.

Last year, however, we left early in the last quarter a few times after a big effort on my part to stay that long - putting up with "can we go" for the previous hour.

This year, my daughter has said that she barracks for the doggies (like 75% of the kids at her school) and my son has been complaining about how awful it is for him being a Melbourne supporter. When they received their MFC kids membership packs, my daughter wasn't even interested in opening hers and my son was so disappointed that he threatened to abandon the MFC and barrack for somebody else. Fortunately he hasn't changed yet.

Anyway, this week they were quite keen (because of the free flag and the kick after the game) and they both donned their Melbourne jumpers and off we went. My daughter lost interest and started the "Melbourne sucks" and "can we go" routine about half way through the second quarter. I told her that if she was quiet we could go at 3/4 time.

Well, by 3/4 time there was no mention of going home early, and in the last quarter, they were yelling wildly, waving their new flags and joining gleefully in the chants after our many goals. We also tried to join in the kick to kick after the game (more like "I can't find our footy") and we all really enjoyed it.

My daughter kept her MFC jumper on all night and went proudly to school on Monday once again a Demons supporter.

What a difference a win makes.

Also, great thinking by the club to hand out those flags outside the ground and for organising the kick on the ground after the game - as a result they might have retained two young demons.

I hope these threads are being red by the Club Marketing People-The more kids who are signed up as Members the better this club will thrive..

And if the Kick to Kick idea was from our Brand new CEO well he is already doing a top job

Rocknroll & why you little: you both add to the pride I have felt this week for our club & our supporters. We may not have the numbers & our "facilities" may have had chris judd turning his nose up but I reckon our long tradition can't be beaten, even if the AFL loathes us.

Dreamin Man I notice you are from Fremantle-I hope you have been walking about the streets this week with pride....

If he gets them for the any of the first six rounds...you are on.

No I am talking about throughout his entire carreer, as i believed in his magic from round 3 at the cattery!!!

The club should put this dinner on for free considering the amount of people who have laughed at me for barracking for melbourne all my life! From my days at school in the seventies right up to last week!! $500 you must be joking!!

Ha Just visited DockerLand Wow that was Humorous!! That club will go nowhere. Nobody is irate at what happened on the weekend. Death is too good for them....
