 Lockhart and Wagners showing a bit which is al least something

Wagners not in system long enough to know what not to do maybe !! Still have a little footy smarts .

They aren't the answer though.

    This just seems like 2007 all over again. Such a disappointment after such a great season. What happened

    Yep, its tough at the moment..

    Ahh yes…Goody's paddock. Empty our backline so the forwards from the opposite can do whatever they want. Not quite Pagan's paddock but it's a gameplan I guess?

    How was that not holding the ball to petracca, then nibbler gets dragged down never taking possession

    Awwww TMac ankle..

    McDonald ankle. This would be a disaster if our season weren't already a disaster anyway. 1 disaster + 1 disaster = 1 disaster. So there's that.

    Definitely both frees unrewarded.

    We have the worst fullback/centre half back combo in the league history

    Fixed :)

    Oscar is a [censored] spud! Amazing how he has already played 60 AFL games...


    Does our backline have a clue?

    It’s funny you say that, I made a comment back in 2017 I think it was that Hunt showed an X factor that we were missing and that it was probably because he hadn’t had time to learn to conform to a plan rather just trusted his instinct. He’s lost that now it seems. Fritch seems to be the same, not a shadow of himself from last year. Will probs be the same with these young blokes.

     

    No other way to say it we just have too many substandard players on the park. Kk, wagners, frost, Omac.

    McDonald injury just will provide another excuse

    • 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.
