Ok for this week's poll I'm going to phrase the question like this. Prior to the season would you have been happy with a 2 and 2 start? Forget the circumstances of the last two games and that we could have won both of them and been 4-0. Try to look at it through the lens of late last year/early this year. Would you have been happy with a 2-2 start?

    I voted no - I felt we should be 3-1 at this stage, with the only loss I chalked down as being to the Cats.  I knew we could roll the Saints and I believed we had the Blues and Dockers well and truly covered.  I wouldn't say I'm disappointed to be 2-2 and in the 8 at this stage, but I'm not all that happy either.

    Yes and no, 

    i would say before the season I would have been happy to 

    beat the dockers and blues but lose to the saints and cats but given our round 1 win my expectation was 3-1 so the freo loss stings a bit

    same ... that Dockers game should have been a comfortable win in theory ... and ......

    I had also pencilled in a win against Richmond so next week is a big one

    Better if this question is left for next week.

    2-2 was my worst acceptable scenario. Paint it however we like, we've let winnable games slip, but it's not a disaster.

    Huge game on Monday night though.

    For me it's all about this week, if we beat Richmond I will be happy to be 3-2.

    youve got to look at the suspensions and injuries as well.

    i just want to be ahead of the ledger and in contention for a spot in the eight at the halfway point and again more importantly finish anywhere in the eight at the end of the season for it to be deemed a successful season

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
