Hold your head high boys

Featured Replies

I didn't say they played great, I said they played well for more than 1 quarter.

Semantics.

 
 

We've beaten ourselves up about our losses, biggest loss ever at the G etc etc, so equally if we score our highest ever quarter, we need to acknowledge that. We know there's a mountain to climb, but right now to bang on 12 goals when we were 19 points down is something to take a bit of confidence, especially when the club is under the mountain of pressure that we find ourselves.

Its obviously a mind set thing, hopefullytis will build some confidence and self belief.

See how Sylvia can be ?

He was outstanding in that last quarter.


There is a loooong way to go but for once, let's just enjoy it. I'm guessing it's going to be a long season. Let's take small mercies where we can find them.

Biggest score in the final term from the MFC ever (12.2)

Hold your head high tonight boys - great fight

Finally a record I'm proud of :-)

In a time where records have been broken (in a bad way) for us, it's good to get one on our side. Well done on the win, some positive energy will be just what the doctor ordered.

 

OK so what happened??

MItch went off but what changes were made that sparked things??

I hear Jones was involved in 4 goals and hit the packs hard but anything else someone can shed some light on???

Will have to look at the tape - i hear what your saying jnrmac - where did that come from

There was a lot of hunger and effort at the start of the last - i guess that lead to belief and it fed through the whole team, looking forward to watching that again

I was there and enjoyed the win. Its like the lights went on at three quarter time. I was very nervous for the first half but always felt that we had it in us to win. The crowd support (at least where I was sitting) was tremendous. I will take a win. It gave me glimpses of what might be...

The change was the spread i think, and actually getting the ball into our forward line. Then it was Gawn making a contest of the ball coming in and other crumbing around him

  • 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.
