wow. We've conceded 51 points in 18 minutes.

I don't care if we are kicking into a hurricane, any chance we put some numbers behind the ball? You would've thought we'd have learned from last week.

I wonder what we will do with the wind? Kick 3 goals?

 

Kick with the wind?  Hmm .. last quarter against Norf anyone?

Worst quarter of the year. Disgusting lack of effort and genuine attack on the footy. 

Leaders have a lot to answer for.

No intensity and no pressure two weeks in a row when the season is on the line. Missing one player in our best 22. Just no excuses for this. Absolutely pathetic.

Heartless, unaccountable football. And in just 15 minutes, our season is over. Wow!

That's our season summed up in a quarter: hope, potential, looks good, and then brought down back to Earth. 

I don't really care if they lose today. Fact is that it shouldn't matter because we should have taken care of North last week.

We didn't, so now it stands that we're just making up the numbers.

And when a team is scoring like that why the F$%k do we handball. YOU STOP and take your bloody time.

We should just save time and rather than handball just give it to a GWS player. Its the same thing.

We have NO leadership at ALL. NONE. Watts doesnt want to put his body on the line and Garlett has decided to take the day off.  Jones rushed in and Viney must be injured cos he wasnt sighted in the last 15mins.

We won't kick 8 goals for the rest of the game let alone with the wind this quarter to get back in it. GWS had a bruise free game last week, we're flat and carrying sore bodies. I'm calling a 80+ point loss and season over.

We'll be leading at half time.

No chance. The Giants pressure is scary

Nothing to do with the wind.  Most of their goals came within striking distance. They absolutely dominated around the ball and in transition. 

We must keep the losing margin below 30 points. We can't afford much of a percentage drop. Lose by 10 goals and imo our season is finished.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
