Sydney looking very average, perhaps to be expected after 7 in a row? Hawks getting a good run from the umps is helping as well.

They might run out of steam come Sept.....

    I have started to think that Bruce may have stopped commentating long ago and it's actually just an Bruce-algorithm AI commentator.  

    "He just hasn't been Buddy tonight, but he will be"

    On Burgoyne: "He's the kind of player you had to see to know how good he was"

    Can't be a real person.

    He's become a bit of caricature of himself. That Buddy comment you highlighted was nonsensical.

    What matters to Melbourne is the top 8 so worrying about the top 4 at this stage is silly. I really couldn,t care who wins tonite . If we win tmrw then I hope the dogs and saints lose coz they are hot on our heels for the 8. Brisbane winning would be nice but won't happen.

    I'd have thought that as supporters we'd target the top 4 until such time as it's unattainable!

    Buddy is having a shocker so far. 

    Gee Burgoyne is playing so well. Age hasn't caught up with him at all. 

    Pretty good game so far

    Funny you should say that amdam. I was thinking how weird that comment was - not just the actual words, also the weird sexualized tone.

    Just typical though. He butchered that kick running into 50 but playing against us he kicks it perfectly.

    Some leading USA CEOS have warned us about this of late.

    Hawthorn winning this would mean theres a good chance both them and the Swans will end up making the 8...   again.....  just when it looked like we might be rid of both for this season.

    Will either of them ever go away?

    You have to make the 8 before the top 4 and we havn't yet. Our run over the last 10 years leaves me with this conclusion anyway.

    Swans: Geelong, Freo, Adelaide, Carlton

    Hawks:  Richmond, North, Carlton, Bulldogs

    Swans currently on 10 wins, Hawks on 7.

    Hawks have a terrible percentage, they would have to win all games and could still miss out on percentage.

    Swans should still make it unless they implode.

    I know Hawthorn winning would be good for us, but I just hate them so, so, so much I can't bring myself to barrack for them. It would be brilliant if they were put out for the year.

    HATE them.

    The umpiring is disgusting, in their favour, as bloody usual. Although when things go against them they are being their typical whiny selves.

    HATE THEM.

    Do umpires need to have a 25m penalty as well as the 50 which has too much impact at times?

    Ño. A 25 metre penalty could be used as a tactic. That is why the 50 was bought in

    What the [censored] was that interaction between Hodge and that ump? Thought the  maggot was going to get out a pen and paper and ask for an autograph. Bloody sickening.

    I thought when he said 'sure Luke, sure Luke' he was actually taking the [censored].

    For minor offences like mouthing off a 25m.

    For head high hits a 50m. 

    I hate seeing games swayed by a soft 50m penalty.

    Then again that may be too complicated for NIcholls to get his head around.

    Don't mouth off. The rules stand

    there are too many rules as it is. 

    We need less rules

    • 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.
