  1. bruce wins almost every 50-50 contest he is involved with and has done so consistently for 5 years now. that is his main asset as a player!

    how people can suggests he shirks contests simply has no idea, and honestly must not be watching any of the melbourne games

    ________________________________________________________

    Were you at the Port game? Cam used to be my favourite player. I still like him, but he clearly shirked a contest in that match. I think it was the last qtr - ball kicked to forward pocket. He was opposed by 2 players. He was never going to mark it, but he didn't even make a contest. Effectively stood back and watched.

    In that qtr he kicked to Aaron Davey at FF who was outnumbered 3/4 to 1. That possibly wasn't his (Cam's) fault because he looked up and no-one was there other than Aaron. I did think however that Flash made a better attempt to make a contest than his more experienced teammate in the incident referred to above.

  2. I watched the match from MCC members with my thirdborn (9 years old) and a few other supporters. The atmosphere was really friendly. Because there were so few people there, it was easy to strike up conversations - there was the couple behind me, the older guy along the row who kept bagging Cameron Bruce and the bloke in front of me who I suspect was Dr Turf.

    A win would have topped the day off.

  3. How often in footy does the wounded under-dog snatch a win under adversity.

    Hopefully we come out firing on all cylinders and not take them easy.

    However I agree that out of all the teams, St.Kilda is the perfect round 1 opponent in terms of lack of preparation.

    Mate, overall (i.e all teams) not very often, but in the past Demons have dropped too many of this type of game.
