WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BILLY STRETCH
spirit of norm smith replied to e25's topic in Melbourne Demons
as per 3 times already, we need kids that want to play for us. He has talent, the desire and is father son eligible. Sign him up. Good sign that he has made SA under 18s a year ahead of schedule. -

My 3 word player analysis V The Hawks
spirit of norm smith replied to joeboy's topic in Melbourne Demons
ranked in order Dawes – tough. Marked well. Gave a target. Can move between FF & CHF. 21 disposals, 12 marks and a goal Frawley – great game. Nullified and chased down Franklin N.Jones – only AFL top quality midfielder on our list. 28 disposals and 11 clearances. Garland – held Roughhead. Good game. Howe – not enough but is good AFL standard Watts – must play in Forward 50 Jamar – up to standard. Needs more around the ground. Davey - classy and must play Forward 50 Pederson – solid CHB. Must keep building Trengove - improving Dunn – battled. Terlich – settled in. Strauss – some good. Some bad. Needs to learn to tackle. Evans – hmmm. Battles. Kent – yes some glimpses. Keep in. Tapscott – sub. Got involved. M.Jones – quiet. Fitzpatrick - cause for optimism Rodan – up/down, circles, fumbles, good tackles. Missed sitter of a goal.Hmmm. Macdonald – battled. McKenzie -below required standard (casey??) Bail - was the worst -
Chris Dawes stood up tonight. Well done.

Changes v Pies *Pls spare comments about coach etc
spirit of norm smith replied to DeeSpencer's topic in Melbourne Demons
Terlich Sellar Garland Strauss Pedersen Dunn M.Jones Couch Trengove Taggart Dawes Howe Davey Fitz Watts Jamar Sylvia N Jones Kent, Mckenzie, Tapscott Sub: Evans in- Sylvia, Taggert, Sellar, Couch out - Bail, Rodan, J Macd, Frawley (inj) Sellar in for Frawley Taggert - lets see him... Sylvia - thank you 3 weeks have gone Couch - deserves a go. We need more in & under. Make or break J Macd - love him, but a battler Rodan - OMG , fumbles, runs in circles Bail - falls over, misses tackles, fumbles. Keep walking & delist. -
No strategy. No development. No inspiration. No wins (well one agst the GWS after 30 mins of footy) IMO, Neeld must go.

Only ostriches stick their heads in the sand ... and you !!

Tommorrow 33000 MFC members will anticipate a flogging from the Hawks. 10 goals defeat would be ...Ok. 90 points ... expected. 120 points ... probable. 150 points - Neeld can pack up. I hate accepting and expecting to lose. I love footy, but am envious of other clubs. I want a contest, respect, a chance of a win. Not a dead duck footy season. The dead years of 2007-12 were at least giving some hope, with draft picks expected to create or regenerate the "premiership dream " of a side for MFC. 2013 is an empty season.

Sandringham v Casey Scorpions
spirit of norm smith replied to KC from Casey's topic in Melbourne Demons
Develop Gawn, Taggert, Tynan, Toumpas, Kent (and of course Hogan) all at Casey this year. They will get a winning feel and play alongside each other. -

An insider's POV - Comments from Russell Robertson
spirit of norm smith replied to deanox's topic in Melbourne Demons
finally some straight answers as much as possible. neeld still talks in riddles. -
Recruit 5-6 mids in the off season, including 3 current AFL 1sts players. Daisy Thomas, Dylan Shiel, Dion Prestia are all key targets

How many will Buddy kick this weekend?
spirit of norm smith replied to Gorgoroth's topic in Melbourne Demons
I reckon 9.6 from Buddy. He may beat us (whole MFC score) head to head !!! -
Sandringham v Casey Scorpions
spirit of norm smith replied to KC from Casey's topic in Melbourne Demons
Likely... Backs Sellar Panozza L Tynan Half backs J Tynan Gillies Davis Centreline Nicholson Couch Toumpas Half forwards Taggert Spencer Smith Forwards Nicholls Hogan Blease Followers Gawn Magner Gent Interchange (from) Best Clisby Hillard* Hughes Matthews Get down and checkout Tom Cuuran for the Zebs. I have seen him 3 times and would like MFC to nab him before the Saints do. Has real zip and smarts around goal. -
The line in the sand ... maybe this week. I fear the worst 100+ thrashing again
-
Liam Anthony has had minor injuries and is behind Ziebell, Adams, Cunnington & Swallow in North inside mid role. Has 33+ possies in VFL in last 2 weeks and dominated.

Davis disposal is improving but still has major 3-4 turnovers a game !! -
Young midfielders/small forwards not getting game time
spirit of norm smith replied to DeeSpencer's topic in Melbourne Demons
moving on ...spoke to a mate at work today who is a hawks supporter. He rates Shane Savage highly but he has been squeezed out by Breust and even can't crack a game with Rioli out inured. Given hawks have Hill & Anderson coming through, Hawks would jump at Savage for pick 38. Win/win.
