    Meanwhile Adelaide currently 15.20.110 to Fremantle 3.1.19. Midway through the third.

    Let us (players and fans) never forget we beat Adelaide by 7 goals in Adelaide. 

    Nor the fact that we lost to Freo at the MCG!!

    I'm not trying to say the fact we beat Adelaide makes us the best team in the league or anything like that.

    But in a season where the closest margin from any other visiting side this year is GWS' 56 point loss in Round 1, our 41-point win should serve as a reminder to all of what we are capable of.

    'titan', I think it's more about colour pieces these days.

    They've got retired champions to give special comments & all they do is fill colour and give absolutely no insight into the game.

    The drivel they carry on with you & I could do from watching the tele...

    It dumb's down the game...

    It's about ratings I know but for me I would rather see the end of the old champions like Mathews, Carey, Watson, Lyon as they have been out of the game to long and bring nothing to the table.

    Even Richardson & Ling have been left behind.

    Bring in fresh talent for expert commentary every couple of years and keep up to date...

    As for the likes of Taylor, Russell & their ilk, surely we can do better...

     

    Listened to the Richmond v Essendon game on 774 for a little bit tonight and was continually impressed by the Carlton captain Lauren Arnell's insights as a special commentator. She really broke down each play and assessed it in modern day footy terms. Really, really good stuff. I want to hear more of that from the flogs on FOX/7.

    Freo dont deserve to be anywhere near the 8.  Their percentage is a pitiful and they have just been very lucky.  No way are they holding their spot.

    Agreed they have been very lucky, should never have beaten us and Richmond

    They don't know that stuff.

    And the ones that do, have buried it so they can make in-jokes and be "entertaining".

    We didn't play well and we get Free in a purple patch which often happens with struggling teams. They have no reverted back to what was happening in the first few rounds of the year.  Think of periods for us when struggling we suddenly play well for a bit then fall in a hole again.

    We always seem to struggle a bit after the bye......did we win after it last year? I think we may have....or perhaps the year before?

    Lynden just kicked a Filth goal. 

    How sad... :(

    Don't worry mate, you'll be happy in a fortnight's time when Hannan sits on his head and kicks his fourth on the way to a 10 goal victory.

    That would be great. I still have the Ricky Pettard missed mark in the goal square from 2010, flash into my head whenever i think of the Filth now!

    North Melbourne has only lost the free kick count in 1 game for the whole year (19-20 against the Giants in round 2).

    They have been given an absolute gift by the umpires for the entire year.

    Collingwood had 39 scoring shots to  Brisbane's 19 so perhaps the 45 point win does not do justice to their dominance

    Certainly wont be a walk in the park on QB. With luck they could start favourites !!

    Should have been a 50 metre penalty prior to the call of play on.  Umpire was looking right at it as well.  Pathetic from the umpires.

    Do they get paid to not see this kind of thing?

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
