Fuggit. Can't they both lose in heartbreaking fashion?

Carlton is actually alright.  A lot of upside imo and I think they're well coached.

I hate Norf much more than Caaaaaaarlton. 


This North vs Carlton game has been a lot like our game against North last week. NM get out to a big lead which is wheeled in and then ultimately pushed back out again in the 4th quarter.

 

The Orange men march on

Not a bad win and they still have quite a few to come back

WC played  a great style of game against them by closing down the forward half and then counterattacking.

GWS' game reminded me of the Lions at their best when they would deliberately play for stoppages and out of bounds.

If you think about it for a moment it is a great tactic for halving the zone and if you have better stoppage players it is a real percentage play.

Perhaps we should consider calling ourselves the Melbourne Emus. Quite clearly if you're on the National Coat of Arms you're a protected species.

...or they could simply call us WLWLWL...

GWS list depth is as unbelievable as suspected.  Their injury list is brutal and they just keep winning.

Hard not to see it as their premiership to lose 

Yep GWS will get there players back closer to finals it's hard not to see them win it, and they have deledio who hasn't played a game yet he could be the cream once finals come not that they need it, if GWS win a flag might be easier to pry some players out of there

Spot on... the sooner they win a flag the better it will be for the other teams in the sense that GWS will be well and truly raided. My only concern is that they will receive high draft picks in return for the leaving players and the dominance will continue for a few more years. The are like the mythical hydra.... cut off a head and another two grow back !!

The way to beat GWS is to squeeze the life out of the game .... (the ultra flood etc) if you let them run free they will cut any side to pieces. WC nearly succeeded last night.

  • 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.
