Pretty self-explanatory thread.

It would be so nice to just lead early for a change, it just seems to never, ever happen. So over giving up a goal in the first minute!

Go Dees

    We are the only team in the league not to have scored first in a match this year.

    We are the only team in the league not to have kicked the first goal of a game this year.

    We play with such little flair/excitement it's bordering on depressing to watch.

    Hopefully that tide turns and the players run hard/work hard for each other. Those things shouldn't need to develop over time. They should have been engrained from Neeld's first day at the club. Unfortunately, we've become a sterile club that speaks and thinks in rhetoric and cliche - far removed from the passion and aggression required in the sport.

    I hope we don't. Otherwise when we lose by 100 points Neeld will say "we were happy we got the first goal today..."

    End game presser, i thought losing by 75 points was alright against a good side, we showed some good signs,

    Drives me crazy, can't see any reason if we start well we can't take it right up to them.

    • 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.
