  1. Yes its dire. Billings, Fullarton, AMW, McAdam, Laurie should all be knocking on the door but are all scratchy at best.
  2. One team with great accuracy able to find targets at will while Casey continually turn it over.
  3. You are truly a Demonland Treasure. I'm nominating you for MFC Life Membership 🍾🥂
  4. Has the odd decent game but generally had shown little to suggest he will make the grade. About on par with the solid Casey listed players.
  5. We are excited about someone who is 3 years on the list & played 1 decent game & 4/5 ordinary ones & not shown much.
  6. Kynan is certainly a goer & good luck to him. I've seen most of Casey games this year & I reckon AMW is more developed & has been in better form but what would I know.
  7. He's 71 but probably wouldn't be any worse than Petty in his current form 🤔
  8. I see Michael Graham was inducted into the AFL Hall of Fame. He was signed by Melbourne in the early 70's but didn't come over. Instead we got his nephew Colin, a very skilful half fwd who stayed a few seasons. Shame we didn't get Michael who was a brilliant player for Sturt & St Mary's in the Darwin comp. He was an outstanding mid size forward with all the skills. We could sure use him now.
  9. Seems a lot of Demonlanders are still obsessed or fixated with Maynard over the Brayshaw incident & now Moore over the Petracca injury. I'm much more worried that we have been $h!those for over a month and that our brains trust has run out of ideas.
  10. Why do you keep linking articles that most people cannot access because of a paywall. Either copy & paste the article so we can all read it or Stop Linkin them.
  11. Max had no influence on the game & poor disposal. 6 Tmac 5 Rivers 4 JVR 3 Pickett 2 May 1 Salem
  12. Taj's disposal improved but was sloppy early on. He missed several passes by foot when under minimal pressure. Foot disposal has been one of his assets but he needs to improve if he wants to make it as a regular
  13. This demonstrates that you have no idea. What on earth is "too light" ? That's a subjective & meaningless statement. And get it right - McAdam is at his 2nd club not his 3rd.
  14. Yes it reminds me of the supporters who were $hitty over the Norm Smith sacking & carried a grudge for the next 45 years
  15. Suit yourself but don't end up like a Footscray supporter mate who was still banging on about Rod Grinter's hit on Terry Wallace 10 years after the event claiming Grinter should have gone to jail. Nobody likes what happened to Angus but in the scheme of terrible things that can happen to people it should be kept in perspective.
  16. And we're you a serial windbag by any chance ?
  17. Fully agree. There is a lot of rubbish being written on this site & it ought to be shut down. Sometimes life is unfair & you can endlessly whine about it or get on with it.
  18. Well 2 of the last 3 games demonstrate an existential crisis. I don't want us to be next seasons North Melbourne.
  19. The Board & Pres & CEO have been pretty quiet in the media & in communications generally this year. Now might be a good time to rally the faithful & give us some hope.
  20. What didn't help was the geniuses in our Brains Trust (sic) who decided to bring in Ben Brown & Grundy on a soaking wet day. It cost us the game & not for the first time.
  21. Agree George. It's depressing seeing Verrall & Fullerton getting consistently beaten in the VFL by "good ordinary" VFL standard ruckmen. Heaven help us if Max gets injured.
  22. Come on get it right McMahen was a Melbourne legend McMahon was a dud Prime Minister.
  23. Classic QB. I was going to ask if he was related to Harvey.
  24. "More than serviceable" no he was not up to it although he played as a defender back then. Probably not a bad idea but can't see clubs drafting 28 year old on ballers. Maybe if key fwd or a ruckman.
  25. 6. Gawn 5. Viney 4. TMac 3. Langdon 2. Salem 1. ANB
