We're doing everything right... except put that dominance on the scoreboard.

Tigers are very average but we've kept them in the game.  We need to go out there in the third term and put them to the sword.

Lots to like about our side though.  We're young and we still lack composure and good skills under pressure at times, but to see names like Harmes, Neal-Bullen, Stretch, Oliver etc as our leading disposal getters can only be a good thing.

Composure again. Silly free from Tyson, brain-fade from ANB.

Pretty sure Tyson's tackle was around the collarbone and had him pinged. It was another bad call from the umps and it was why he was clearly [censored] off

Geez PF, it sounds like you're about to attach the hose to your car. It's half time....wait until three quarter time at least.

I think it's pretty upside down logic to say we should have picked an extra tall, in the wet, because we might have an injury.  If anything, the weather is an argument for going smaller.

Tim Smith was picked for the role Pedersen might have played.  He got injured.  C'est la vie.

Full of admiration for the team but some worrying signs.

- We've been dominant but same old goal scoring problems

- We have been playing with huge intensity, but can we keep going at that rate?

- three players with injuries serious enough to require treatment with one in hospital, will that take a toll by the end of the game.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
