    Really hope we can win this, bugger the second pick I want Carlton to be below us.

    Cmon dees!

    I thought Petracca lifted in the middle once Viney went off.

    Out for the day with concussion, from said hip and shoulder.

    No hip.  Raised shoulder straight into the side of his jaw while standing.  Should get weeks.

    And that's his problem.  Nowhere to be seen for 20.  Turnover after turnover.  Then puts in 10 to 15 minutes of ok footy.  It's Rnd 18 not the first match or two and he's been in the system long enough to know what's needed at this level by now.  Rarely finishes when required either.  Great work ethic and andeavour but doesn't cut it for long enough often enough at AFL level.

    Another superb kick by ANB, gives us a goal in the third! Great pass to Fritsch

    The side has been showing some signs of coming back into form. 

    Putting some good minutes together.

     

    Hunt might not have big numbers but he’s having a very efficient game up forward. Bring it home Dees!

    He has been hunting the ball.

    I have liked what i have seen from him today in that regard. Long may it continue.

    Is it coincidence that we started playing better once Viney was off?

    Just sayin...

    mmmm, not the first time at all, agreed.

    Dees leading free kicks 14-7 since during 1st Q. Funny how you win frees when you crack in and play well

    2 decent quarters, we at least look like a team. Put Melksham and an in-form Tom Mac into that, get some games into Lever and Jetta, and we'd be on our way.

    Going to miss Viney (plus his rotations) for the last quarter, could be the difference.

    We hit the front at 3/4 time against West Coast, who are fighting for a top 2 spot. Yet there are are hardly any posts? Makes you wonder.

    Viney initiated it. Shouldn't get weeks for that.

    I just want to see these Eagles trip over their inflated egos.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
