Thats more like it!

 

@melbournefc: Despite a dive and tackle from Tappy, the Suns score another goal. Suns 3.1.19 v Dees 4.3.27


2 goals each this Q. That's a real fade

@melbournefc: Despite a solid tackle from James Magner, the Suns score a point. Suns 21 v Dees 27.

@melbournefc: Great commitment from Tom Gillies with a run and tackle. Solid work so far from Gillies and Garland down back.

The second quarter fade-out strikes again.

A little too early for that call Ralph - but it sounds does sound like the Suns are playing better


@melbournefc: A goal to Ablett at the scoring end of the ground bringing the game to a draw. Suns 27 v Dees 27.

Quarter 1 – Melbourne 2.3.15 – GC 1.0.6
Another day of hot conditions confronted the Melbourne players for their final hit out of the preseason competition against the Suns on the Gold Coast. In a low scoring contest The Suns hit the scoreboard first with a remarkable goal from Gary Ablett kicking from 50 out hard up against the boundary line. Melbourne hit back midway through the term when Hogan out muscled his opponent and snapped one through from 30 meters out. The remainder of the quarter was a even affair with Gold Coast doing well to get numbers back in defense which made it difficult for the Demons to get value for their higher inside 50 count. New draftee Matt Jones kicked the final goal of the quarter after a 50 meter penalty made his conversion a gimme from straight in front. The Demons taking a nine point lead into the first break. Notable players for Melbourne during the first quarter were youngsters Jimmy Toumpass and Jesse Hogan.

@melbournefc: Great commitment from Tom Gillies with a run and tackle. Solid work so far from Gillies and Garland down back.

Good to hear Gillies and Garland are both performing solidly. We need our backline to be unpentratable this year!

Do you actually think that post was serious?

Hard to pick up sarcasm over the Internet haha

Your predictions could be coming true though Ralph haha


@melbournefc: Watts dives on the ball and ensures the Suns potential goal is a point.

Do you actually think that post was serious?

Not from you RM

  • 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.
