    Nice to see some posters grudgingly acknowledging the improvement in Matt Jones and what he brings to the team.

    Tyson was very good.

    Hunt ,ANB , Stretch were passes but not great.

    Every single week you find a way to pot Tyson. It's tiring.

    Agree except for Tyson.  Glad to see recognition for the mistakes from o.mcd and t.mcd.

    Best 6 were N Jones, Gawn, Frost, Kent, Watts and Tyson.

    Viney: Needs to use right side or Get ris of it quicker.

    Brayshaw : awareness improvement/shows a lot of class at times

    Petracca : Touch of class

    Kent : Great run

    Gawn : Terrific

    Watts : Massive improvement in committment/Great team game

    TMac/Jetta: Without hime we would have lost by 10 goals. End of Argument !!!!

    Wagner/Omac/Hunt/ANB/Petracca/Brayshaw/Frost/Harmes/Stretch/Hogan  : all first or second year players

    Nathan J : Great bounce back from last week

    Whole Team : 100 minute effort / well done

    'Joeboy's' not a Tyson fan, just factor that into the "3 Word Analysis"...

    I'm a Tyson fan and a fan of thread, a must read after every game.

    Frost - turned the corner

    I wasn't sold on him at the start of the year. But there is an x factor about him even I can't deny. Today was a leap forward for him. He is a must start for the rest of the season so we can see what he can develop into.

    Hunt - starting to fade ... lucky to be kept in the side. If Salem was fit, Hunt would be omitted.

    You have to be joking ....what bloody game were you watching ....i saw it with some pies supporters and they were raving about him ....just so harsh

    Jetta - good game  6

    t.mcd - good but crucial mistakes were costly 5

    wagner - ok. turnovers costly.5

    Frost - very good. pace and backed himself.8

    o.mcd - not even close to AFL standard. Disposal a worry. Physically gets pushed aside.2

    vince - skilled. big heart. got in but a few undisciplined free kicks. 6

    M. Jones - good run. One of his better games. 7

    Viney - the warrior. needs to learn to kick on his right foot. 6

    Hunt - fading. conditions not suited. 4

    Stretch - good run again. must use him more and go forward. 6

    Kent - good. but I want him to develop so much more and kick 4-5 goals. 6

    Watts - another strong game. Most improved award for 2016.  (if any he had kivked the goal in the last quarter) 8

    Petracca - yes. so much talent. 6

    Garlett - took his opportunities. 5

    Hogan - disappointing again.  I expect more. Potential but not engaged.3

    Harmes - in and out. 5.

    ANB - Needs another week.4

    Dawes - marking time. 3

    Gawn - another good game. Might sneak a Brownlow vote. Deliberate handball out in 4th was disappointing.

    Tyson - loves the conditions. Prolific and won the midfield. 8

    N.Jones - best on ground. 9

    Brayshaw - pass score 5.

    Agree, Tyson was good, and yes it is tiring and boring

    Hunt has had a better year than Petracca, Oliver or Brayshaw. Nobody could have predicted that. He is not tiring just gaining experience.

    should be pointed out that brashaw only has 58% game time for 20 possessions, so he's certainly finding the ball, but not always capitalising on his disposals. bad conditions and being a little rusty didn't help. need to give him more time and he'll be ok

    He'll be ok ?

    Brayshaw will be a frigging super duper star.

    i was talking short-term. he was copping a bit of flack on land with some wanting him dropped.

    Hogan did not look interested at all yesterday. Rubbish conditions for a key forward but Watts provided far more competitiveness. 

    Jones and Tyson were fantastic and Petracca showed some salivating signs.

    Petracca - makes me hard

     

    Hunt had a good game, just because he doesn't break the line every time he gets the ball doesn't mean he's tiring or cooked, just means he's learning.

    Tyson was BOG in the voting in the Nine Sunday Footy Show, Channel 7 Sunday and in the Sunday Age. I think he should get a lot more praise than " slow to offload".

    • 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.
