    First time we've beaten a "genuine" AFL side in any form of the game since Round 10 last year against Thompson's Bombres. It's only the NAB but a win is better than the alternative, especially for the players' confidence. If we can back it up next week then we might take a little momentum into the real deal.

    WYL you just beat me.

    A win interstate is great, but a win in the outback of Bogan Renmark is a miracle.

    GO DEES

    Sellar is a better ruck than Pederson and now he has added goalkicking to the varaibles. Sellar has always been a repeat effort stat

    WEll its nice not to have to wait until r10 for a win. It may be a nab cup game but at least we can pick up the papers tomorrow to read about a demon victory.

    Looking foward to going to casey for my 1st visit to watch them.

    I have Sellar ahead of Pederson... and I am a Pedo fan!

    Why? Sellar played the whole game, Going by stats. pedo was a sub. 1 kick 1 handball.

    Now if he played all day for those stats. he wouldn't play again.

    Sellar, maybe in lieu of Clark.

    But when Clark comes back in, then Pedo' time.

    Tackle count well in our favour. Many believe this is the key stat

    And clearances.

    Some interesting stats amongst the stats: Jetta 20 possessions at 90% efficiency, with Terlich not far behind. Strauss and Evans also seem to be able to hit targets. On the other hand ... Magner, 41% disposal efficiency, including 5 clangers? OK, under pressure around the clearances, but is undoing a lot of his good work.

    Is Neeld doing a press conference?

    Jetta 20 possessions at 90% efficiency is fantastic to see. Well done to the lad.

    • 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.
