GAME DAY

Featured Replies

Goal to Byrnes. We're up by four.

 

We're winning!

 

I could crack Evans.

Is that a good thing?

Is grimes of a half back flank on the Frenchmen?


Nosebleed time! Sylvia!

Tackles WCE 20 MFC 6 at this stage, and WC have had more possies...

Still got no idea why we made no play for Kerr when he was a FA

 

Can someone please say what the score is?

There is a pulse

Not able to watch the game, could this be because they are actually having to chase us? or is our pressure when not in possession down still?

so many eagles players running around alone is killing us. we are winning the contested possessions but loosing the game because our players do not stick to their men and dont know how to tackle.

apparently Melbourne players are the only people in the AFL world that dont know about Shannon Hurn

its simple things like that which kill us

Important quarter time stats:

We lead the clearances 10 to 8

Eagles lead inside 50s 16 to 9

We lead contested possies 46 to 35

Eagles led the possie count 100 to 91 BUT they also lead the tackle count 22 to 6

Score MFC 25 WCE 33

24 to 32 at quarter time WC way. Good start though


who had the brezze ?

Melb - 25 WC - 33

N.Jones with 11 possessions so far.

Eagles have had more possies and nearly 4 times as many tackles. Not good.

much better quarter boys, 3 more of those and i will be a much happier member

Why do we have a ruckman whosr to scared to take a shot on goal


Free Eagles players everywhere... Make no mistake, the effort is a bit better, but we've been lucky so far and made the most of our limited opportunities.

Goal to Mitch cuts the Eagles lead to 8 points again.

thats all we can ask for stuie, todays result is irrelevant

Sylvia playing great, sets up Davey for a goal, Eagles lead by 2 points

The tackle count and manning up isn't irrelevant though.

  • 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.
