Davey's having a purple patch. Good to see him doing well and taking it on.

    50 50 decisions have stopped going our way.

    I think we won the quarter on the field but only just on the score board.

    For the first time ever, I've had an absolute gutfull of Trengove. I'm a fan, but he is in struggle town.

    And Dawes us having a shocker. Letting his opponent get to him.

    I hate Game Day threads. They make me sad.

    They are also an insight into the mindset and level of play many d'landers have played at. NFI a fair few

    I just can't see us winning this.

    Gawn is getting humiliated. No Garland. No sub. No good.

    He was always going to tire in the second half. Humiliated is a bit strong. Leuenberger is a genuine star.

    Any news on Garland?

    Fitz has been nowhere since the first. Surely they try him in the ruck, regardless of whatever knee twinge he has

    Yes he is a star, and he is destroying Gawn.

    We know Gawn has no fitness base to speak of, but he isn't giving us much in the ruck or around the ground. We had to resort to letting Watts ruck. That's pretty bad!

    No way! He was literally a millimetre from suffering a knee-destroying injury. Let's not risk him on an ultimately pointless game.

    Garland left ankle problem. Done for the night, not sure how bad it is yet.

    What sort of near miss

    maybe Sylvia as a lead up forward? We need to change this up, it hasn't been working.

    viney is just a terrier.

    other players who hunt the ball with the same intensity - joel selwood and garry ablett.

    i'll take a cross between the two, thanks!

    Garry Selwood?

    With Toumpas off, Garland injured and Fitz struggling, and are serially down on rotations and don't expect to win.

    I hoe we can keep it less than 20, a respectable result.

    Nb Byrnes has been poor tonight, he has fumbled at times when clean possession probable would have resulted in shots at goal.

    Dawes you pleb.

    Why are people rambling on about Trengove tackling alot? Mckenzie does the same and he was picked up as a late rookie. We didn't use a #2 draft pick on a tagger/tackler.

    apparently we did

    So disappointed with Dawes. He has been [censored] poor, and as a leader, we should expect more.

    We are battered and bruised now, and we've given up. It's so disappointing.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • 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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
