    Some people still have problems praising OMac !!! As Roos said he urged Frost and Omac when they were competing against LeBron and Shaq to bring the ball to ground. Not bad for an inexperienced pair !!!

    Struggled to find a bad game amongst all of MFC. Some were not perfect, but a lot were terrific.

    I agree TRengrove is a great versatile link in our side. We still have not seen the best of him .  And there is young Angus to come . Woopy dooo!!

    If only they were playing on comparative players of the calibre of LeBron and Shaq. It was more like Hasheem Thabeet and Anthony Bennett. 

    Weird how you only highlighted one "R" in Jack's surname.

    Surprised Hunt only had 13 touches. He seemed to be involved a lot, particularly in the first half.

    I thought Chris Dawes was very good today, He did what he had to do and there is no doubt in  my mind that we look a better side with Dawsy in it!

    Hunt has a lot of involvements that don't show up in the stats the AFL give us.  I'm pretty sure the club does have them and are taking note of the number of defensive acts he commits each game.

    A fan, but jetta's worst game. I believe he was sick. Regularly beaten today but picked up when game won. I don't think he should have played when we have other good players missing. 

    VDB was pretty good. Possessions may not have been what some were but he is a good all round talent and does valuable stuff. A vital part of our depth in best 22

    Premiership players all have weapons to contribute. Hunt has weapons good kick, can mark, good courage for a light body, but his weapon is his speed for both attack and defence. A couple of years and he will be burning.

    That's because the other R is silent ?

    I was waiting for that Old Dee. Glad I was so wrong. I bow to your better judgment.  Great win. Beating Collingwood TWICE in a season is a wonderful feeling. Cheers mate.

    One of your best Joeboy!!  That said, I think you are a little harsh on Stretch and a little too positive on Jetta.

    I thought Varcoe had the better of Jetta tbh. Jetta played okay but in most one-on-ones, he was beaten.

    If he was sick then that makes sense...I would have expected him to struggle with Varcoe's pace at times but not to be beaten and out positioned in the air which is usually one of Nev's real strengths.

    He got the ball about another 13 times but ran himself into trouble and was tackled each and every time.

    I find it hard to disagree BM.

    what if we won next week in Sydney?

    now that would be a WOW.

    • 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.
