Bartel, Johnson and Kelly are as good as gone. All have been average for most of the year and terrible tonight.

EDIT: Great to see Menzel out on the park again and playing well.

Lets face it, if we had the same success as geelong we'd be happy with ourselves as well.

But Kelly is terrible tonight and watching them it looks like melbourne is out there. Turning over the ball, handballing to players when a pies player is right on them, can't kick in and just butchering the ball. The only positive is Menzel and they should be thankful they have him.

Selwood may give greenwood a clip tonight.

Cameron Ling continues to cement himself as the most annoying colour commentator on television right now. His only rival for that spot is Ian Healy. He just spouts dribble over and over again and never shuts up. I used to enjoy his comments when he was a boundary rider as he could only contribute rarely. How I wish they put him back there.

As much as I hate to give credit to the Filth it's great to see them smashing the Cats and knocking them well and truly out of the finals race.

He completely beat me to it in regards to Ling.

Use to like him as a commentator but the fact he continues to stick up for his 'mates' is pathetic. Even to the point of getting annoyed at Wayne Carey who is asking honest opinions on who will finish up at the cats. Irt was a reasonable question too.

He is completely biased when talking about Geelong. It's understandable but he takes it to ridiculous lengths.

Outside of that he seemingly has to comment on EVERYTHING that is going on. He doesn't make 'special comments', he makes 'comments'. He can't distinguish between them.

If you can't be unbiased, stay the [censored] out of commentating. It's what shits me about Seven's entire commentary stable: Ling, Richo, Watson, they're all ridiculously biased and spend more time fondling themselves under the commentary desk than calling the match.

Oh, and 4 goals to Menzel. What a champ.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
