GAME DAY

I would like to know if members ticket get us in to Jack

The 15 match membership gets you in to all the games in Melbourne. The other 8 matches are all out of Victoria/in Geelong.

 

Two late outs for the Saints in Clinton Jones and Farren Ray helps our cause marginally, but we will get obliterated unless it rains like last time. Regardless, GO DEES!


 

What to do with trengove? He is struggling. Maybe put him behind the ball, get some easy touches? He's really labouring.

ummm, he looks like he is equal highest disposal getter on the ground, but don't let that get in the way of your rant!

surely he's mentally stressed to make that mistake

yes, he's trying his heart out

Despite the overwhelming negatives, one huge positive is Nathan Jones he is an absolute gun now, courage was never in doubt, now has lifted his disposal to go along with it. That kick to Green was superb. Yes sometimes still tries to do too much but I feel that's more to do with a lack of options rather than wanting to do too much.

More kicks handballs and marks in the first quarter and did nothing with them. going to be a long afternoon.

I'm not ranting. I just worry where his head is?

Can we please pick up some midfielders so i don't have to watch McKenzie butchering the ball all over the ground.

and FFS Trengove, can you not kick further than 35 metres? Inexcusable to kick into the man on the mark from that range.

From what I've seen both captain Jacks are playing well (apart from Trenners kicking into the man on the mark). Grimes in particular is looking good in his 50th.

Sellar showed he's a spud at both ends dropping an easy mark to gift Kozi a goal and never looking close to getting a set shot in the forward line.

Jettas looking lively and has done a couple of good things. Jones as always is working his proverbial off, and is showing more still than half the team combined.

Much more needed out of Beamer and Sylvia, ball movement is good but we're lacking the final step to deliver to the forwards. Watching on my iPhone so can't really tell, are the forwards doing enough on their leads?

I love Jones and enjoy watching Blease. Almost everything else about Melbourne is painful to see and reflected on the scoreboard. Still no goals and we're in the second quarter.


And there it is! Goal to Howe 17 minutes into the second quarter. Wow-wee I'm gettin excited!

Agree totally Gonzo. Only thing is that he is trying to do it all himself. I can understand why he does that.

Big statement ... we can win this.

I like a lot of what I'm seeing.

Thats the spirit

:unsure:

Just for you Ned. Out scoring them 9 to 1 in the second quarter. Do the saints really think they might play finals this year.

  • 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.
