The skills of both teams is pretty ordinary (Buckley got plenty of the ball and butchered it every time).

Funny you should say that .

Went fishing with a mate who is a Pies supporter on the weekend who is good mates with Nigel Lappin.

Lappin reakons the Lions rarely bothered putting a tag on Buckley as they knew he wouldn't hurt 'em .

Anthony Rocca was their main focus apparently.

    It worked to the millimeter in the 2002 GF.

    it just must have been against us - he would tear us apart spotting up players 40-50m down the field - I remember his disposal being excellent and then I saw the game on TV today. ( so much for my memory)

    One day scoop and you what.

    This is not about you. Don't try and make it about you.

    Ah Timmy. You're becoming obsessed. How's that cognitive bias going ?

    I included the OP out of respect for his post. And from where I sit it's all about me. Funny that.

    • 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.
