    I'm there tomorrow and fired up! The loss of Rich and Hanley will help us, so if we come with a switched on mindset, I reckon it might be close.

    I rewatched the Port Adelaide game today and thought that Jordie McKenzie was really good. Can anyone remember why he didn't play the next week? Was he injured or dropped?

    Either way, I'm excited to see him back against the Lions.

    Injured.

    But, seriously, you watched the port Adelaide game again?

    The game from round 1, this year........wow, I deleted that as soon as I left the ground.

    I watched 'em all this week. I wanted to see our stoppage setups and things like that.

    Food for thought:

    If we win tomorrow, we will be no lower on the ladder than 13th. We'll move past Brisbane, the Bulldogs, St Kilda, and West Coast, who just lost to Port despite leading by 40 points at the 20 minute mark of the third quarter. If Hawthorn do the predictable and beat North, we'll then be in 12th.

    Will we win? Probably/likely/almost certainly not, but at least there's some ladder-climbing motivation for the players.

    I can see Davey becoming our super sub and playing this role on close to a permanent basis.

    Interesting idea. Not the worst thing I've heard, either. He does seem to be suited to the role. I wonder how being a sub every week goes for fitness, though. And confidence/morale. I don't think we'd do it literally every week, but maybe he'll find himself in the vest semi-regularly.

    Any chance we can get Jack Watts to do a Harry Taylor....play down back and rotate up forward? 5 goals to Harry tonight. Lost track of how many times hes done that.

    I want to see us kick a goal from the first bounce. Tap down Sylvias throat 2 bounces and a goal from 55, have we ever done that?

    Also would love to see Evans rotate into to middle for bursts playing on Moloney and hurt him the other way, we all know he dosnt run defensivly.

    • 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.
