    Like Nasher I am looking forward to this game also, interestingly like many D'Landers I was feeling quite pessimistic about this season after round 1 but after the last two rounds I am feeling cautiously optimistic. The last 2 rounds of football have seen us string approx 7 quarters of football that doesn't suck together. So now I am, dare I say it, excited to see if we continue to keep the intensity and effort up this week in Geelong.

    I would say watching the players after last Saturday and watching the press conference with Barty and Neeld the emotion and pain of losing etched on their faces really moved me on the weekend. Bate talked in his last interview post Bulldogs (I think) about the team has to hate to lose and you can see that the boys are at that point. I just hope that anguish at losing only drives them to work harder on the aspects of their games that are letting them down and that they use that to fuel their desire to win every contest they enter and dominate all aspect of the games.

    I guess i am just trying to say that I loved thatRaw emotion it was refreshing to see.

    Go Dees!

    • 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.
