:D

I was at an interstate members function last year before the game in Round 14 I think, and the only available Melbourne players that could come was Mitch King and Joel Smith. Ever since then, I've been a bit of a fan of Smiddy  8)

Hunt/Howe hybrid I tells ya!

So lads how much halfback flank did Nathan Jones actually play last week and can you see it continuing with guys like Viney, Brayshaw, Tyson and I suppose eventually Tracca coming through??

I'll be monitoring closely today I think

I hope he plays mid/defence all season,would love it quite a lot of he got DPP haha

I reckon Jones could easily be playing off the half back, similar to what he did the other day. All of Jones, Vince and Lewis played off the back at different stages, so just going on that game alone, they all could be D/M at some stage in the future.

Vince said the other day that the younger players will be playing more mid time this year.

But too early to tell really. Jones will definitely play at least a little off the back line though IMO

So, Angus Brayshaw dropped. Seems a surprise from the outside. Is it a surprise to Demons supporters?

Well, he was fairly garbage last week. Was alright the week before though, so seems a bit weird.

Just looked lost last week. Kept finding himself out of position and couldn't get his hands on it. Might be a move to get him some confidence back in the twos.

Definitely not surprised. If I'm honest, I've harboured concerns about his ball winning ability for a while now. I'm comfortable about what he does with it though.

Demonland are normally quite vocal about things like this. But they're kinda like "Hmm. Yes, Gus." - not wanting to tear him to shreds haha.

Hell have no fury like Demonland.

Does Melbourne usually not have sponsors on the back of their guernseys? Looked weird :P

[Toga]

Not a good look @Jesse

Sigh.

Peter Jackson just trying to get the best deal haha. I seem to be the only one that doesn't notice

He's got 3 days leave, he didn't do anything illegal.

Assuming there is nothing in his contract about not smoking (which I am 95% sure there wouldn't be) he's fine.

Annoying though as this will be another massive media beat up.

No supplement saga and the West Coast drug story got no traction so they are trying to created drama

Oh good, these were my thoughts too but I thought I was too biased to really make a comment :P
