When they say you can't beat a side in the Top 8

Nice "crunch them into the ground" analogy Andy,  like the Stone Cold and Jonesy comparison!

    On that note, it’s incredible that Collingwood received a double chance after beating only one other team in the top 8.

    They made it by virtue of recording 1 win from 8 against this year’s finalists (now 1/9) and 14/14 against the bottom 10.

    I would have thought we would have been more Steven Regal in his 2008 heel commissioner phase (having been King Booker's town crier for a period).

    We just need people to start saying something like "they have been good this past month, but don't have it in them to make it through a prelim" and/or "Hawthorn are the finals specialists and Melbourne will cave under Clarkson's system of short kicking"

    Interesting to note that to date in the season we have now beaten 3 top 8 sides and all in the last three games.

    Collingwood on the other hand have just beaten one, us, back in June. have not seem much made of this.

    They also claim we are the slowest side in the comp. 

    Many claim that in DL, I always say it is not true, we have loads of speed

    • 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.
