    JTM, you're either on too much medication or not enough.

    The coaches also seem to be refusing to budge on the gameplan or mix it up from week to week, trying to ingrain it into the players. 

    It's as if the coaches aren't confident about teaching multiple game plans and trying different strategies to suit our opposition. We've been found out the same way against St Kilda, Bulldogs and Port now; why is it so hard to change the gameplan after half time when clearly opposition coaches have worked us out?

    Bleagh, Nick Reiwoldt commentating at half time on 7. His face makes me ill. 

    He looks like a chewed-up Mintie

    I don't rate hawthorn this year. But with their forwards and ours backs it's hard to see this happening.

    Maybe those that rated out Brisbane win will forgive and forget. But for those that could see it last week and didn't just look at the final score, this won't be the case.

    I suspect you need a Camberwell carrot.

    They are your aerials. They transmit signals directly from the cosmos and into the brain. 

     

    I reckon all DLanders could use a Camberwell Carrot from time to time. Too much vitriol

    Perfectly represents the club then, doesn't it?

    why is the dogs/filth game so low scoring? i'm not watching. have they gone back to man on man or playing an extra man in the backline?

    dogs are usually a free flowing attacking side that scores heavily. seems neither side can score.

    Both teams bombing it into their respective fwd 50's, a lot of intercepted marks. Quite scrappy game.

    Fasolo, Adams and some other filth I can't recall all injured! Hope they're all 2-weekers 

  • Quote

    Adams is a hammy. He won't be there. Fasolo I think they said a stinger. Crocker? Concussion.

  • Quote

    Frost is a big lummox. Having said that, I'd probably have him in our team.

    Dynasties like at Hawthorn, Geelong and Brisbane developed quickly.   The way we are going the very best Is a 50/50 shot at a GF in 7-8 years. Incremental improvement is just as likely to reverse. Look at Richmond.

    You mean like us having the largest statistical scoring improvement in the modern era? Or are you looking for a flag this season, ADC? I rate your posts, mate, but sometimes you're a little too negative for your own 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.
