Hoping for a win tonight, bit of confidence back into the group

A few things in our favour, a few against.

A more settled team than most weeks, a good competitive effort last week, the "shackles" are off and Neil does seem to be giving the players some confidence. Week 2 with the new coach could be good a bit of shock factor has worn off.

Against us is our injuries, and can't take a trick in this regard with key players missing.

I hope, for the players sake more than my supporter satisfaction, that we can snatch a win and some confidence.

I'd like to see Watts continue from where he left off last week and I'd like to see the Frawley generating drive. I hope Clisby, Kent and Terlich can continue their good form. I hope Fitz and Gawn hold their own, in what is arguably our weakest area other than "midfielders".

I haven't watched the dogs much this year. Any thoughts on match ups? Griffen is the obvious one not sure who should go with him.

Need to assume Minson will win 80+% of the hitouts, because he will. Midfielders need to try and read where he's going to tap it. I'd almost go to the extent of double-teaming Griffin, because on form, he is the best mid in the league. Leave it to the likes of Liberatore and Boyd to beat us; because in all honesty, their team outside of Minson and Griffin is pretty bloody ordinary. Need Dawes or Watts to snag a few.


I really love Saturday night footy. Lets hope the experience tonight is a bit better than usual.

I have a good feeling we can actually win this.

No late changes. Byrnes sub

SEN I think

We will win because they won't be able to score easily.

We have the best backline in the competition.

So, sit back and enjoy a nice win fellas.

We deserve it, lap it up.


Scores

Melb 1.3.9

WB 1.0.6

Dees dominating inside 50s

Dawesy goals

Dees up by 10 points.

Watts has a blood nose and is trying to stay out on the ground!! The wheel is turning people!!!

Our midfielders need to be accountable.

That is the only way we can lose.

Bulldogs mids will have to kick their goals.

Man up fellas.

 

Howe goals.

  • 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.
