    When the inferior Jetta missed that goal was when I started to think, hmmm. Just had that feel to it.

    The effort that went in to the last goal was immense. It goes down on the score sheet to PMac, but it had the blood and sweat from 22 of them. They were tired and injured, but they just kept grinding it forward with everything they had. I think it's the sheer guts of it that has made me giddy.

    Inferior jetta....    love it!

    She is doing a charity event tomorrow as well, fantastic lady...  and she will be receiving a special surprise gift which i hope she will love.  

    For the life of me i can't rember what it is, something to do with auskick?. 

    As for her commentary work... i suggest she is probably the best Boundary rider we have heard, although there is  not great deal of competition Samantha Lane is not bad and who else is memorable?.?. Dipper, who whilst was fun was pretty [censored] aweful when you look back on him.

    We are a better balanced team with Hogan. No doubt. 

    What we need to do is learn to play less dumb predictable footy when he's playing. We lower our eyes and hit targets inside 50 better when he is not playing. 

    Absolutely   hogan straightens us up    when we are on and accurate we are going to be only more dangerous with hogan there  wherever he plays

    I alwas enjoy seeing hogan midfield   for me CHF is his spot floating mid amd even back    weid soon to be our leading FF  and roatatonf t.mac forward seems like a revolution

     

    With watts and pedo there as the other talls  kent garlett as the forward rovers  we are on track for lots of damage 

     

    It will not be long before we completely destroy a team

    Ok yes the game sucked major arse

     

    But....

     

    We have lost two games to undefeated teams  which we only really lost due to not having a ruckman for most of the game and lost anothet just to a up an com8ng team

     

    Frankly we are actually flying at the moment  and there are major positives from our team  and very soon we will see the boys absolutely demolish our opisition 

     

     

    Carn the dees   and keep up the support      we will be the most dominant team very soon

    Captain Courageous Nathan Jones

    Jones has been one of our best kicks for years (I'd argue since he won his first B+F), but was prone to clangers because he was often under immense pressure, had to kick quickly, or had ordinary players as his targets. I can't stand it when people describe Jones as merely a "grunt player" or "not being blessed with natural skills" - it's a stupid footy cliche said by media personalities who watch one Demons game a month. Jones has been a skillful player for many years - he just doesn't have the block locks to go with it.

    The more he gets the freedom to play as an outside midfielder or half-back flanker, the better his kicking looks. I wouldn't be surprised if he finally gets an All Australian guernsey this year or in a few years time as a half back flanker.

    This was th e thing that always got me about chunk in his earlier years...

     

    He used to get roasted for his delivery in the early years by some, but more often than not it was because the man would barrel in there win the ball and fire off this bullet pass to a team mate who would be too slow to receive it effectively. 

     

    Has blossomed with a good team around him, finally showing that he is a truly elite player

     

    Has been my favorite player for quite a few years

     

    As for the captaincy that is a reflection on Viney and rewarding him for his leadership as opposed to a demotion of Jones

    Melbourne's Communication and Online

    Yes it is definitely lacking   we didn't even get the final few days reports on the maroochydore camp, it just stopped after day six or whatever.

     

    I am sure people would even be willing to volunteer for this to improve communication...

     

    Player profiles would be great if they were more indepth with up to date pics. Just look at the big head shot of Melksham let alone the far out of date pics of spencil or the lack of the gawn beard

    And some injury or training reports would also be nice
