    so watts is back in my dream team side i guess...

    You should never have taken him out!

    Half Time; blue skies must be over 30 here, no worthwhile wind advantage, dees started well and dominated 1st and start of 2nd, Ablett went FWD and created a few opportunities, and got the Suns back in the game, can't recall going inside 50 in the last half of 2nd??

    went to Rodan a few times but got beaten and suns rebounded

    4.5 to 4.3

    heaps of kick to kick in the backline, struggling to get it clear out of defense, the Suns are onto the switch and zone was making Ds nervous.

    other points of interest..

    Hogan's 1st quarter great! Toumpas and M. Jones going well, Tapscott took a great contested one handed, nJones outmuscled Gaz in a nice bit of work on the wing, Warnock 'the wall' another ex making you jealous..

    players look stuffed in the heat,

    now must attempt to find the gents...

    For those reporting I offer a huge thanks and requests that at the end of the game that we know who was playing firstly and I'd also love more than anything to know how our centre midfielders went especially who had a go on Ablett.

    @melbournefc: It's currently 27 degrees, humid and reasonably still here at Southport. Players like @howie0038 have opted to cover their face in zinc.

    Another second quarter fade out?

    Suns outscored us by 11 points in that quarter, but if you include that quarter when we were up by 21 points it was actually a 23 point turn around in less than a quarter.

    So you'd have to say yes.

    Seems we've still got a lot of work to do on maintaining composure of the back half which is a shame!

    If that's what we're going to produce in 2013, then we'd better prepare ourselves for a long, hard year. We are painful.

    Our shining light in the first half will be a star but not in 2013 - Jesse Hogan.

    not sure, maybe cause all the GC beach babes are at that end?

    players out on field , 3rd to start in a few mins

  • Quote

    Bailin, why all the scoring at one end?

    What do you mean we won the first quarter and then were dominating them during the first 10 mins of the 2nd! Just another fade out.

    @melbournefc: Sellar takes the mark on a 45 degree angle and slots it through for a goal - his first for the day.

    Goal to Sellar

    Who's that rucking for GC? Looks like a big bugger from the photo.

    @melbournefc: Despite good pressure from Wattsy, the Suns score another goal. Suns 41 v Dees 33.

    • 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.
