Sweet, sweet Lord. I am not going to survive this season.

I think I broke my hand tonight? 

We played one good quarter. Not enough against good teams.

    The moment Joel Smith unnecessarily rushed his kick from a mark early in the last quarter I knew we were in trouble.

    Zero game sense.

    A really good tough win ... in terms of important wins,  that is our best win for the season.

    The Crows were always going to come back at us in the last quarter - they are no mug side and they're on their own turf. 

    But we matched it with them in the first half and hung in there and then played a great 3rd quarter. 

    A great win!

     I don't think we are weak in recent last quarters.  Both Geelong and Adelaide have recently had 10 day breaks.  Whereas we have had 7 day breaks after a Darwin game a few weeks ago.  Huge effort to almost hold on last week

    Adelaide should have been much fresher than us and we had a few walking wounded tonight eg Hogan and Harmes.  A mammoth effort for the team to hold on.

    Very proud of the lads.

    Some smart football throughout tonight and after weathering the early storm a getting over a lot of fumbling the boys were very good in their decision making and playing the percentages.

    Tmac was exceptional with his body work and plenty of smart body work by all around the stoppages

    Love how much hate we are getting on bigfooty.

    If we get viney hibberd & hunt (back to his best form) we are going to be very scary in September.

    Winning ugly is ok

    Adelaide had their season on the line

    We only needed 1 goal in the last Q and we got it.

    2 things: 

    1. Clayton Oliver is unbelievable. He is the best player I have seen in a Melbourne jumper. Ever. 

    2. If Frost can stop touching things: eg- the ball, the opposition etc, I really think he could be a player

    I love this club. It makes me anxious, frustrated and angry sometimes but wins like that just make your weekend. I’m happy for the club and all of you guys, the supporters. Heart still racing!

    Big club circle for the song and FMD, Goodwin showed emotion. So happy right now.

    FFS enjoy it. They are a good side. We played hard tough footy in the first half but lacked polish. We then dominated in a hostile environment and held them out in the last.

    Don't be like that, Jaded!  You can't tell me you didn't fire up when Nibbler kicked that sealer at the end.  I won't dispute your point above, but that's for later on.  Enjoy a win in enemy territory that keeps our season well and truly alive!!!

    That sealer... dancing around the kitchen after that! ""We're going to win! [censored] you Adelaide ! Get [censored] Adelaide!"

    Eddie is one of my favourite non-Melbourne players to watch. He absolutely saved our asses with that miss

    Jesse Hogan winning that 1 on 1 in those conditions with 20 seconds and the give off to Trac to ANB for the goal was awesome.

    Couple of great tackles in defensive 50 by O Mac and Salem really helped us in the dying stages.

    • 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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
