Collingwood v Melbourne

Featured Replies

For some reason, I really like the way Joel Macdonald plays, but for God's sake he made me look bad in that first half. But I reckon if Jack Watts decides one day to get off his period, Mitch Clark learns how to work with our forward line and our coach gives Jeremy Howe more than two seconds on the field, we'll have a pretty devastating forward-line . . . that's if they can be bothered leading and our mids don't just bomb it on top of their heads anyway.

 

Tynan the other subbed out for Bail.

When will Jack Watts get a kick?

He looks lost again. Howe got subbed off, Watts stays on? He looks lazy like Jurrah.

 

On the other hand Bate been pinged 3 or 4 times for holding the ball.

He's found something though, having a real crack. I used to call him the scarecrow cause he couldn't bend his arms. Just ran around calling for the ball with his arms in the air.

Good news is that the pressure and tackling is 200% better this year. Even Davey did a crucial smother!

Get the feeling we'll be involved in a lot of low scoring games- win or lose.

Playing the wings has been very noticeable.

Jack Watts has a 1%Er to his name. That's about it....


Watts has had some awful kicks to him but surely he's gotta do more! Who came on for howie?? What's was the thought process taking him off???

The only thing I can think of is that they've seen all they need to from him. Maybe we'll see him next week, maybe we won't, but I can guarantee he'll be one of the first picked for our Round 1 game.

Happy with the pressure, we should be ahead so that simple fact has me happy as well.

Surprised Howe and Bail subbed off but barring injury I reckon it would've been pre-destined. So I don't think it's a tactical move.

Kick straight dees!

Guessed he's shown Neeld he can play so it's time for the other kids to have a crack. Fair enough I reckon.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
