It's due to channel 7 that we don't have a 2:10 slot, they want later so it runs into their news.

Like I'd sit around and watch their news... Flogss

    They pay the money they make the times.

    It is that simple

    That's why I'm really keen for the Ten Network to succeed in a bid for Saturday games. Ten is not as wedded to being a source of news as Seven and therefore is less likely to want a 3.20 pm start. I could see Ten broadcasting a 2.10 pm game live which would allow them to go to alternative programming from 5.00 pm (which may or may not be their news).

    The other reason it would be fantastic for Ten to get the rights is their coverage isn't a dogs breakfast like Seven's, and they simulcast in HD on One.

    Well, they did, until Lachlan Murdoch came in and destroyed the joint to protect his interests at Foxtel.

    That's a leap of faith suggesting that Lachlan Murdoch actually had a strategy. Darned if I could discern one.

    cant think of a better way than to end 2014 beating those overrated flogs at Etihad

    cant believe we haven't beaten them for 8 years and they've never been any good in that time

    They've actually finished higher than us on the ladder for 7 of those 8 seasons.

    You can both be right, though. Finishing above us 7 times does not necessarily mean they had to be "good". Just better than basically the worst team of the last decade.

    Using the current ladder as an example, we're above St Kilda, but does anyone seriously think we're "good"?

    • 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.
