Tough final five minutes to the term, but we held them relatively well, even if we had a little luck to go with it.

Midfield has been really good so far and I've liked the work of McDonald and Weideman up forward.

Hopefully those last five minutes were nothing more than a blip on the radar.

Fine for me. Though could have done without the getting up at 3.30 am part.

Weid has been good.

Gee Melksham makes a huge difference to our forward line.

Salem playing the backline general well I recon he is the replacement for Lewis.

    Not bad so far.

    Port regained their poise somewhat at the end but we made the most of our opportunities early. Nibbler needs to work on his set shots however.

    Sparrow looks like he belongs.

     

    Some nice work so far. A few cheap turnovers in midfield but we're getting busy. 


    Viney and Petracca not exactly making their presence felt.

    With May to come back, Frost would want to be stepping up.

    No, surely Oscar has to come under scrutiny.  He is rubbish and is ridiculously slow.

    Jones has done some good stuff.  Very much involved in the game.

    Yep, he's actually been really good out on the wing.

    For those trying to watch overseas- this link is working.

    That was pathetic defensive work from O Mac then.  Westhoff should never have marked that.

    Frost is incredibly frustrating

    He was stiff, though.  Ball was called out on the full and then he paid the push in the back.

    Umpiring howler - how can you pay in the back to a ball that has gone out on the full!#!

    Bad call. Soft call. But Jesus Frost is dumb to put his hands on his back for no reason.

    Frustrating

    • 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.
