It's about time we break the cycle of putting in a crappy effort following a solid performance the week before. Carlton are a mess, I'll accept a 10 goal plus win. Watts to boot 4.

The worry for the Dees will be a potent 'baggers forward line.  Kennedy, Waite, Garlett and Betts are capable of a big score. What??  On yeah.

The prospect of an extra hours sleep was exciting, but my two year olds have obviously never heard of daylight savings.  Or maybe they're too damn pumped its game day!  Hope I don't nod off

Reminds me of the Gold Coast game last year. Had all the possession but disposal kept them in it. We are handing them the ball across half back.

Kick heading inside 50 is letting us down and we're not getting back to defend the corridor well enough. Should win comfortably if we tighten up but jeez it's frustrating to watch

nice little reality check... trust the first kick, and stop effing around with dinky little kicks (not even the 15m's on the 45)  Gus to lift.

Getting lots of the ball and we're winning the ball well too - far too inefficient though (so far)

Disposals 145 to 85

I'm on the other side of the world so only just woke up, I know last week one of our issues in the first term was blazing away without lowering the eyes for short passes (particularly going into the forward 50), is there a bit of that going on?

I'm not gonna panic coz it's only the first  quarter, but that was garbage of the highest order. Credit to Carlton for shutting things down. 

Bolton has done his homework..We should crack them but it may take a while.

And that is the value of Hogan and a good crumber like Garlett. Hogan doesn’t mark it, but he brings it to ground. Garlett gets the goal, but that was Hogan’s as much as his. Not to mention the dangerous kick into 50 by Nathan Jones.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
