Casbolt usually can't hit the side of a barn but against us kicks then from the boundary. 

He has kicked more from that spot than he has missed.

 

Blowing my own ‘travel trumpet’ by reporting in from Lefkada Island in the Ionian Sea (think Rosebud on Steroids).

Ordinary day yesterday: money clip with €70 cleverly lifted from pocket on crowded Athens train. 6:30 am here. Dees win needed so I can get another hour of sleep.

    Umpiring is atrocious and getting worse.

    Backline horrendous today. Defensively we are atrocious. We pay the opposition no respect. 

    Our inside structure up the line is a shambles...too many on the skinny side cost us that goal.  Still amature after 2.5 seasons under Goody

     

    Did they say May went off.

    Why wasn’t Pruess paid 5 seconds earlier ????

    Poor Mary

    Is Preuss a horrible ruckman or am I just used to seeing Gawn?


    Carlton plays confident albeit chaotic football. They are playing well above their weight. Evidently, we are playing well below ours. Carlton will get a run on. They look dangerous every time they go forward. Still think we're set for a 8-10 goal loss. Nothing in that quarter convinced me otherwise.

    Horrible compared to Gawn

    Stupid autocorrect. 

    Mary doesn’t deserve to be called names. She’s not why we are so bad!

    Kreuzer's round the ground play is keeping them in this not to mention our atrocious forward play.

    Theyre amazing what they try over there. I can tell you some stories. Take care out there.

    14 frees handed out that quarter. This is why AFL struggles getting interest in other countries on the game, no one knows wtf is going on.

    I should apply yo be the forwards coach.

    All u have to do is run towards the ball if u get there go for it (the morr fliers the better) no matter how many players are there. Then all stand around and repeat.

    That should have been an 8 goal quarter and almost game over.

    Weideman is not even the shadow of an AFL forward

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
