I disagree... they want this badly and are simply being rattled by the unexpected ferocity of the Dees play.

The Tigers are cruising mate, Dimma will rip into them and they may switch on. We're not "ferocious" today, but we look more settled than usual.

 

Well it's clear that I am the problem. I am not there and suddenly we win a first quarter.

Forget Neeld, it's all me.

In all seriousness, that was a good first quarter. Magner is making a big difference, as we knew.

Frawleys showing today why we can not let him go, hes had an excellent first term
 

Tigers by about 120.

I'd like to say that's madness, but I'll wait until deep into the fourth quarter before I declare that.

James Magner 8 disposals, 2 tackles, 2 clearances

Yes this guys been at Casey all season while our midfields been getting raped


Rivers would have marked it instead of punching like Garland just did. Lack of confidence and ability.

yeah spot on with the confidence but i think he has the ability

I suspect some gentle foreplay as well.
 

Frawley, best game for the year so far. Magner 8 disposals, but we're already 30 disposals down. Can't keep the ball.


Dawes has a massive presence on the ground (he seems to be our main leader already)

When we one a centre bounce early and kicked it into the 50 he applauded the mids and then everyone else did. He just has a presence about him that we need (him and Clark would be awsome!)

Correct. Showed leadership last wk too. Many of our supporters were too busy giving him the Bronx cheers to notice though. He's important.

15-6 inside 50s shows how lucky we are to still be in it. Need to tighten up in mid

Well first quarter won check

Stop 10 goal un answered run... Fingers crossed

I thought that cheer was for a player finally hitting him with a decent pass instead of kicking it over his head.

Come on!

Good work Dawes and flash!!


If he'd had missed that I would have been might peeved off

Love seein Jetta stick up for his team matess

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • 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.
