Throw up all the excuses in the world but North are making a mockery of our inability to score last week.

    Wowwee!! Ferocious game North v Hawks. Gees I hope North keep the foot down and end up smashing them.

    Do you honestly think Hawthorn are playing as well this week as they did last week?  Like us, they haven’t come to play.

    Hawthorn is not great. They are well coached, but they made a point of making a mockery of us last week. Clarkson toyed with us, and our players gave up.

    Quite enjoying North playing well against the Hawks. North playing with intensity and aggression. Ben Brown is a ripper.

    Frawley also not having a great day which is enjoyable to watch.

    True, but you can’t draw a form line from today to last week.  Nth smashing Hawthorn does not make last week any worse, or two weeks ago against Nth any better.

    We were fine until it got a bit wet last week, under Goodwin we haven’t played wet or windy conditions well at all as we do t adjust for the conditions

    Wow wee. 13 marks inside 50 to 1 Norths way.

    Someone should bump the “ Get Ben Brown” thread. He’s seriously good.

    There's a lot of serious betting going on...............

    North will play finals this year. Maybe even top 4. They remind me of their 2007 season. Nobody rated them, every side paid them no respect and they ended up winning 15 games.

    I hope our Rd 3 North win doesn’t end up being our highlight of the year.

    So how did we beat them? The mind boggles.......

    North are our "Bunnies". It's just my best guess..

    We’re starting to sound like the football media on here.

    A team plays well: ‘They’re amazing; will play finals.’

    A team plays poorly: ‘They’re terrible; won’t play finals.’

    If you were a Melbourne AFL Player, set to play Tuesday, watching all these upsets this weekend so far, what would you be thinking?

    I've been meaning to say '39 it took me 20 years to get over Barassi leaving, but another thought to me is it just seems like we have a game plan that is too fast for the players?@#$!

    Listening to BT saying the Higgins knock out was accidental is ridiculous. Burton made the choice to bump and it looks like Higgins is still unconscious.

    I too would like to see the Roos finish off toweling up the Hawks but the WatchAFL app (the one for international viewers) has decided that the Lions vs Suns game is that gripping, they will make you watch it even if you want to watch North vs Hawthorn.

    Sterling stuff.

    • 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.
