Some players are having bad games. 

Good. It gives them focus to train out those deficiencies in the coming weeks. 

Video to be studied very closely.

He’ll struggle to get a game this year.

I feel like he'll be on the bubble every game, but won't get dropped once injuries start.

Brayshaw probably to the main offender, which is annoying because he is a ball magnet.

Yes, his disposal hasn't been good so far today, but I'll put it down more to it being the first half of real competitive footy for the year than anything else.  His disposal isn't always that flash regardless.

The Wagners and Hore don’t look up to it.

I thought Hore looked alright myself.

    ANB also very ordinary 

    You are just realising that now?

    Richmond winning in the air and on the ground. Who is 38 for them? Killing us in the air.

    Is number 34 for us Hore?

    He has done ok INHO.

    Poor disposal from gus, nibbler, JKH and stretch hurt us.

    RIchmond spread brilliantly and opened us up. 

    I have not seen Dusty up close before. I now see why he is so hard to stop!


    Steady on guys. Even Winx gets beaten in barrier trials!

    They moved dusty onto the ball that quarter and the whole game changed immediately. 


    that midfield combo of oliver, brayshaw, and harmes with trac and salem coming in would have to be one of the most exciting group of 21-23 year old mids i've seen

    shame gus can't hit a target and trac can't kick a set shot

    they're basically full strength, and when they had the centre square combo of martin, cotchin, prestia plus titch edwards coming in they were so much stronger than the group that we had up against em, which at one stage seemed to include stretch and jkh

    And for all that, we're on level terms at half time.  Funny that.

    Who would have thought that playing two Wagners wouldn’t cancel each other out? 

    Petty looks promising. 

    Oliver quite possibly could be the GOAT.

    Just wait till we add Viney back into the midfield mix with Gawn knocking it down they're throats.  It will be orgasmic to watch.

    I had a feeling that the rotations through the midfield were biting us.

    Richmond were doing their flood dump kick attack that quarter.

    Weeds seemed to get caught under the ball a few times.

    We need that tall option to take the contested marks

    We’ve shown lots of promise for an exciting season ahead for mine

    FMD!! I'm reading some negative [censored]. It's half time in a [censored] JLT match FFS .Settle down lads.

    Bit bitter but optimistic, wouldn't you say?

    There wasn't much else to say about the second quarter. Just sucked. Nothing much more you can say. Noones slitting wrists.

    IDees very ragged and being belted at ground level. And sorry  to say but Petracca looks slow, overweight and not that interested.

    • 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.
