DC, when were are good, it gives us hope.  When we are bad, it is generally down to  a lack of discipline.  I reckon at the moment that teams that are not doing well, pencil us in as vulnerable, if they, as the opposition, can put enough pressure on.  This is what we still have to learn.  Absorb the pressure and put it back on them.  Until we learn that, we will continue to lose games we should win, on a talent for talent basis.  This is what hurts at the moment and makes it difficult for us (supporters) to exorcise ghosts of the recent past.  

 

.........Now back to the Shiraz...............

    [censored] comparison. Tyson was poor today no doubt, but has no resemblance as a player to toumpas whatsoever. It's a lazy sledge.

    So many pessimistic bulldusters on this site. Get real how many of you ever got a kick or taken a mark or kicked a goal ( or a behind) ?

    Besides his game against Richmond he has been pathetic for a year and a half now, a 1 year wonder, time to be dropped. A half fit Oli would have been more serviceable.

    Ten to twelve TOUGH players out there for Port today( Tough as in non compromising, sacrifice type players). Three to four for us maybe.

    Dislike button would be nice for posts like this, Tyson has played 50 games, was playing well before missing a match with injury, he's a key to our future.

    As did Garland IMO

    I thought he played better. He is terrible one on one especially when the balls on the deck though.

    You're joking. Slow start to the year, but played well until his illness. Comparing him to Toumpas is a [censored] joke.

    We played poorly today, Kent picks when to turn up, Harmes wasn't sighted, Omac is too skinny to outmuscle opponents, etc. Will be interesting to see which Melbourne turns up next week against the Hawks.

    Dean is a lazy Kent. I counted 4 occasions in the first half when under no pressure he kicked it to the opposition. Not good enough - needs to correct his attitude at Casey.

    The only positive from the game was Maxie's return to form .

    Billy Strech and Hunt were also a positive. Hogan's contested marking is a thing of beauty. If he can eventually kick the ball as well as he marks it, he will be unstoppable

    He played as bad a game as i have ever seen from a senior player. His performance was laughable and quite comic in its execution or lack there of.

    I see Kent as a barometer of sorts - when the team is on, he's on, when the team is struggling he struggles. i reckon he's still got a bit too much of the previous era about him and has been relatively lucky to not be tarred with the same brush as Tapscott, Strauss, Blease etc. In my opinion the best game he has played was Richmond last year before he did his string. he looked on that night.

    • 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.
