Watts was having a decent game up until this last quarter but his efforts or lack thereof have all but cancelled it out.

Three decent enough quarters is an improvement though.

We desperately need some crumbers. I don't understand why we never have anyone loose around the packs.

Fitness is also a big issue I feel. We simply can't run games out. This will improve.

He can still do the positives on a less bulky player -- Cloke will eat him.

But he's not playing on Cloke today is he?

I think Rivers has won that battle so what else do you want?!

Looking for positives, we did stay in it for three quarters which is two more than our best so far this year.

Lack of fitness has again killed us....hopefully won't next year.

Boy I'd like to single out many MFC players right now for being absolutely pathetic today.

I will refrain from it.

I will say tho that Nathan Jones runs his guts out.

Really disappointing end to the game. We really had a decent crack today. But our pathetic fitness levels and our generally poor skills ate us up late.

We will not be competitive against decent clubs if we can't run out games, and right now, we are hardly running out three quarters, let alone four. It's so disappointing.

Thought Bail responded fantastically, especially early. Clark and Jones again led the way for endeavour. Blease and Nicholson seemed to relish their chances. But there is still a lot of crap (Sellar is the slowest player I have ever seen).

I think it was frustrating right from the start. Carlton are a shadow of the team they were at the start of the year. That blow out was always going to happen. This team has no clue how to win.

Can't say any one player is more deserving to be dropped than anyone else. But Moloney is done. He has lost so much confidence and just...boom. Isn't that why we call him "Beamer".?

We were significantly better. We play a game style that requires a lot of very hard running. Unfortunately we are nowhere near fit enough to play this style ...... yet.

I thought our pressure was good and we stayed with Carlton for 3 quarters despite not winning any clearances and losing the contested possession pretty badly.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
