Maybe he would be excelling at the Dee's. WFKnows... Kids got enormous talent, as did Jurrah. Garletts adjusted his lifestyle and excelled at WAFL level so there's no reason he can't do the same at AFL level. The media smell blood and make it worse than it might seem.

Just caved into the kids demands to take them to the playground and will miss the first qtr. surely this is father of the year criteria?

Fast flash shutter?

Not during his time at Melbourne. Let's see what he can do at the Eagles this year. Let's also see what Pedo can do under Roos this year, old.

Glad to see you've absolutely rested on a new whipping boy since the departure of Bennell.

It was all a bit of a 'myth' for a period there.

Isn't this footy 101?

Tappy lucky to get away with only a couple of weeks. Clark running well, progressing well with his hammy .... Dave Misson’s Injury Update

There's only one Z in bizarre.

My arms are so huge I'm unable to roll up my sleeves.

I sometimes wonder of Fitzy would make a good backman. Strong overhead with some real zip he really just needs to read the play better. Just putting it out there.

Don't get disheartened SD, it's a classic mountain from mole hill.Let's just wait and see Wattsy prove to everyone what his comments should in theory translate into on the field this year. The ball is well and truly in his side of the court now.

Not sure if this has been placed in any other thread but think it's suited to this one. http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2014-02-18/roos-attitude-critical-in-win-trengove

It was clearly evident with not only Dunn, but the rest of the team, what the plan was when they had the ball. Neelds game plan confused the absolute sh!t out of everyone and therefore made them appear as (and frequently labelled on DL) stupid footballers. The ability of the playing group has been questioned over the years as has the development of them in relation to playing the modern game. After that one showing it should no longer be debated that the majority of the players have been poorly developed at the club. I'm expecting a quantum leap in improvement this year and I'm pretty confident I won't be disappointed.

I think it was around half time when we kicked a goal to edge 1 point in front and Duh'wayne comes out with "well it looks like we've got a game on our hands." Just plain stupid that all he can come up with is the usual commentary cliches when the game had been tight from the first bounce. Definitely the most punchable head on tele. Easily surpasses Barrett and Tony Shaw.

And courageously flew backwards into a pack going for a mark which I thought was a direct statement from himself more than anything. All of a sudden the 3 year contract looks valid.

Praise from Hardwick also.

Agreed. Fantasy gold at the Dee's this year on the back of that.

We have a new club to support. Go Demons.

All I can say is what a vastly different side this is to last year. Grand canyon like. Bring on the home and away.

Tigers 51 Dee's 41 Nearly half time

Running in numbers. Unbelievable. This performance will do wonders for membership if it keeps up.

Let's see if we can hang on for the remaining qtrs.

Everyone should go in with low expectations of the scoreboard. It will mitigate any disappointment. My eyes will be on the mids and the way they go about it.
