Freo playing ok seeing as they basically gave up on this game at team selection.

Pies looking pretty good too.

Sets up a massive game next week.

Both teams in good form.

    Would've preferred more breathing space between us and the Pies but not unhappy to see the lowly teams continue to lose. Helps to reduce the field of potential finalists. I'd say any team heading into their bye with 4-5 wins is basically out of finals contention, considering the logjam at 7-8 wins.

    At least, the Scum winning will ensure 85,000+ next week. Two teams flying.

    We should account for them easily, but how will we respond to Lever's injury? That's the big question.

    Watching Collingwood, it's likely watching 15 or so ANB's run around. They get a fair bit of it but turn it over under very little pressure. It'll be interesting to see how they go against our pressure if we bring it.

    With Nth possibly finishing as high as 6th after this round... how is it that ‘Melbourne hasn’t beaten anyone yet...’??

    You don't understand; North weren't good yet when we beat them. How could they have been? I mean, they lost to Melbourne!

     

    Everyone we have beaten are below us, and we have only lost once to teams above us. 

    It only seems like yesterday that every team was above us :unsure:

    What thoughts folks:

    Fyffe gone ?

    or the duplicity of the MRP to prevail ?

    Pies didn't play the game out at the end and the Dockers did a nice job of whittling back Pies %.

    GWS taking it right up to the Crows.  If GWS win they boot Crows out of the 8.  Even if GWS lose, a small loss helps our cause for finals.

     

    So, Huge, Huge game vs Pies next week.

    We win and we have 9 wins - 2 wins and good % ahead of next weeks 6th, 7th, 8th and looking good for top 4 (with a double chance and at least one Home final at the G).

    Lose and we will be in the pack of 4/5 teams on 8 wins.

    We owe the pies for rnd 23, 2017.  Lets hope that still burns deep in our team and they wreak their revenge.  Will be happy with any win!

    This cripple fight in Adelaide is not pleasing on the eyes. 

     

    But as I type, a sweet hit from 55.

    Geez, I hope GWS don't awaken

    I am with you. I am going for the crows in this one.

    We play them round 23. It would be great if they were out of finals contention and taking it easy with stars coming back.

    That worked well last year.

    OMG the maggots are [censored] scared of letting GW$$ beating Adelaide in front of their crowd.

     

    At least it is a close game unlike the boring runaways this afternoon.

    GWS winning is not a great an outcome as some might think. Get Greene back into that team and they're dangerous.

    I am supporting them, today, in response to the Crows' supporters schadenfreude over OUR Jack Lever's injury!

    The Crows drop to 6-5 - forget top 4, they will now have to battle to make the 8.

    • 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.
