Umpiring bloody killing us especially In front of goal I have counted about 3 free kicks for the scum that were very dubious.

Maybe we could wait for the game to start before we start slagging the players?

He's in the team, give him a chance.

Ok,20 minutes in,Bail kicks to Robinson for a GOAL,stupid mistake BAIL!!!


Channel 7 commentary, is Melbourne negative. Cometti " I don't want to be negative but I reckon Watts could have done more" Struth watts didn't even know he was coming

Ascendancy lost due to some brain fades. Whilst we lead by 1 point at qtr time, you have to question the mentality of some of the players. Twice Rivers was caught out of position due to poor kicking going out of bounds or lack of vision.

Great goal by Blease. Undisciplined Frawley's on Robinson late which cost virtually a direct goal.
 

3 stupid mistakes for 3 goals.

Winning the CP 40-38 but 14 tackles isn't enough.

Someone get on Simpson,before he racks up 40.

He could have met the ball or made a contest using peripheral vision. Rather than sit back and wait. The kicker should have been smarter.

I cann't believe what you've just said. this is a clear example of how Watts' softness costs us goals. Its just embarrassing. The ball was coming in and he looked to the side to see the carlton player closing so he DECIDES to let the ball come to him so he won't look accountable and won't cause a collision. Cometti just said what everyone else was thinking. Watts is so F#ckin' soft

The kick was inexcusable but Jack did NOT attack the ball - rather decided to wait and see.

One thing that is very noticeable - when Carlton players give off a handball they always then lay a shepherd: our guys don't. Something to learn.

Great kick by rivers to set up Bail. Bail to Clark, good mark . Goal !

Edit: Hampsons height and lead too much trouble for Rivers. Midfield needs to put more pressure on.

Gee we look a million times better when using the corridor.... hint hint Neeld

Players should do that playing junior football.


Surely Rivers ain't the match for Hansen physically -- Sellar?

Hampson is destroying Riv in the one on one.

Maybe in marking contests, but he's only kicked what 1 goal? And Riv has setup MOST of our play, I'd take that as a matchup

Garland on Betts is the WAYYYYY more worrying matchup

  • 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.
