  1. 6 - Salem 5 - Oliver 4 - Jones 3 - Garlett 2 - Jetta 1 - Watts Honourable mention to Tyson who took a long time to get into the game but stood up when it counted.
  2. Yes, he played in both. They were his 7th and 8th game.
  3. I don't mind the Bummers winning tonight. They were the better team and made the most of their opportunities. What I can't stand is the 'Official' broadcaster fawning over the them as if they did nothing wrong.
  4. Might need to check the autocorrect on your first sentence there
  5. Email the club, Dazzle. That's what I did when the JKH injury appeared on 7 news before the website or social media. The site has been a real disappointment lately, worse than previously and it's time they got some honest feedback.
  6. 6 - Gawn 5 - Viney 4 - Jones 3 - Tyson 2 - Watts 1 - Stretch
  7. 6 - Tyson 5 - Viney 4 - Gawn 3 - Garlett 2 - Vince 1 - Watts
  8. I agree, definitely missing the commentary. It would at least be helpful to have the player numbers available on the site for easier identification.
  9. Replay up on Club website: http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2016-04-11/vfl-rd-1-q1-casey-v-frankston
  10. Interesting that the same article on the MFC site has a different headline: http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2016-03-08/i-want-to-remain-at-melbourne-watts.
  11. Would be great to add http://afltables.com/afl/afl_index.html to the list. Exhaustive list for Stats on games going back to 1897.
  12. Sure, I want to be freakin' ruthless and beat everyone but there has to be some realism involved. We have expect quick fixes for years. You mention Richmond 's winning culture and yet look Richmond in the Late 80s/ Early 90s, so inpatient they never gave a coach enough time to actually do something. They also have won a premiership in 35 years or played in a GF for 32 years, Sure we can be critical of the club, the coach and the players but there are times were you need to back the club. If we fail, we try again until we get it right. If you don't want to support your club then don't pay your money and go somewhere else.
  13. I don't post often on here because of the pessimism around this place that has grown monumentally since 2012. Sure, there is just cause, but Roos and PJ have a fair point. Look at Footscray, as an example. - Have 1 premiership in 90 years in the VFL/AFL, and that was 61 years ago. - Only 2 appearances in a GF in that time - Club was all but killed off in 1989 - Last pre-season they lost their captain, sacked their coach and there CEO quit. Yet time and again they dust themselves and off and go again. Sure, they're still a work in progress but they never really give up week to week. Even when talent would dictate they can. They may not have a large supporter base, but they're supporters are loyal. I'm not saying we need to copy them, just take a leaf out of they're book to back the players that are here. Failure hurts, I know but there needs to be a change to the 'typical Melbourne' mindset if we are to succeed and that goes from the President down. That is what we are in the middle of and it's a culture shift which will take time and a bit of patience. We are only 2 years into fixing something that was breaking for 10 years+.
  14. Available at http://www.afl.com.au/stats. Have to play with the options a little but the info is there.
  15. As with most facts from "Lethal", some substance but not entirely true. According to the official stats, we are bottom 4 but Essendon and GWS are slightly worse. As a comparison, Port, Dawks and North are the most accurate. Total goal accuracy difference between best & worst is around 6.5%. (Port 54.2%, Ess 45.4%). We still have to straighten up though.
  16. LH, While the flu can knock some around, we will actually have a full 7 day break as we played 1.10pm Sunday last week and play 3:20pm Sunday this week. Bulldogs do have an extra day though as they played Saturday last round. I think we're a real chance, but we have to start as we did against the wobbles.
  17. It was made clear that he is regaining match fitness via Casey. He played around a half last week and has been named again this week. http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?/topic/38787-casey-scorpions-v-werribee-tigers/ I have no problem with this. As much as I want to see Salem in the senior side, it's best to be conservative.
  18. Correct. Toumpas at 4. Even had Grundy slipping to 20. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/the-2012-afl-national-draft-20121121-29qfq.html
  19. It's on the club website : http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2015-05-04/vfl-rd-3-q1-casey-v-essendon
  20. Martin is not eligible as he had played more than 10 games before this season.
