I did recognise the fact that he does give his all which I respect him for. It's not a vendetta against him, more on the club. I'm simply saying that I hope we improve as a team so he isn't a part of our best. By the way he's no Brett kirk and I'm no tool!

Ok, I'm a Demonland reader and believer and have only ever posted once before. Every night I log onto Demonland to get my daily fix and every time I do I can't help but get peeved at the photo on the far right of the header. Whilst I admire his tenacity and hard work, if we are to succeeded as a football side, JM can not be in our best 25 players. I'm hoping he doesn't get a game next year, which would mean others have gone past him. Even if you don't agree with everything I am saying, you must admit that he surely doesn't deserve to sit alongside Roos, Jones, Frawley and Clarke on the Demonland front page.

I've been supporting Melbourne for 35 years and throughout that time we've had some dark days. Never before though have I been so embarrassed and so disheartened than I am right now. I never thought I'd see the day when Clint Bartram is best on ground, and that's not giving him the credit he deserves. At least he gives 100% every time he pulls on the number 3. I went tonight with a couple of Hawthorn supporters and it was down right embarrassing to hear them talk about the club I love the way they did. Once again, like more often than not, I had no come back. And poor Mitch Clark! At least he's getting paid well, 'cause I feel pretty sorry for the guy. I bet he wishes he had his time again. Number 9 is completely out of his depth and to see him not make the distance from 30m out was another kick in the guts the poor guy could do without. Fancy making a young inexperienced kid like him captain. Not his fault, he didn't ask to be made captain. When I saw that he had 9 tackles, and about the same in kicks, my immediate though was, great well we've got another plodder to run along side the rest of our midfield. At least though he tackles. I read today that he was a gun cricketer. I long for the day that we start drafting gun footballers rather than cricketers and basketballers. Again I don't blame him. He had one standout game that propelled him into the number 2 draft pick. Everyone refers to 186 as the darkest moment in our recent history, but on the big stage tonight it couldn't have been much worse than this. All this might sound a little over the top for my first post but I, like my club am at the crossroads and don't know which direction to take next. Yes, I'll keep turning up every week but for how much longer do we have to suffer? Where to next?
