I think Fitzy did a decent enough job, his output equaled or bettered Frawleys of late when he played forward. The problem with the talls was the delivery and the lack of crumbers, I dont know where kent was playing during the game but I hardly sighted him doing anything creative. Bail was at least having a go,

Kent is not up to it at the moment and I'm not sure that he will make it long term. He has a lot of work to do, is coming from a long way back.

    Garland - excellent until injured

    Wasn't he injured halfway through the first quarter?

    Ready to be shouted down but Fitzy is a real talent IMO. He's a presence up forward and with a strong midfield pumping it forward he'd be an asset. I know he is sometimes awkward but he scatters packs when on.

    Not much I guess, but clearly he is about 6th in line with a fit squad to pick from. He kicked two goals last night and did okay but earlier in the season, when the heat was really on, he couldn't get anywhere near it. When he played last year the heat was also off - I just don't think he is as good as some think he really is. Plus he doesn't have the ability to play elsewhere like others do, which leaves him further behind the pack.

    He's the opposite of Gawn, plays mainly as a forward but can pinch hit in the ruck. He was highly rated 2 years out from his draft, but a poor draft year saw him take a massive slide down the rankings. He's super quick for a big guy and obviously has skills but he has a couple of health concerns (diabetes and chronic fatigue) that may have had some impact on him to this point.

    Vince, Nat Jones (as always) and Tyson tried hard - Cross did well on Priddis - very little after that.

    • 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.
