OMac playing well, at least. Don't think he's lost a contest and has looked far more proactive.

No he has fumbled easy balls causing our attacks to break down and kick has been shocking. A player with better awareness would have touhced the ball on the line.

    West Coast a class above. Whenever finals come round, they'll be front and centre, just so much talent from one end to the other.

    They look really good don’t they.

    How did the dud centre bounce straight to Naitanui not get recalled? That was just a joke.  

    Because it didn't bounce to Gawn

    Alex Neal Bullen 1 disposal that quarter.

    Someone again tell me what he brings to this side??

    Thought we might struggle a bit. You can't name Bedford and Pickett as debutantes and keep ANB in without a worry.

    Losing only one game for the season (given this will probably be the last game) is pretty good isn't it!

    what a p*** poor effort, eagles chip the ball around with ease as our players playing meters away from or behind their opponents. another 6 or 7 weeks off may help our players to hand pass and kick the ball to their team mates. To think i have been waiting months for this game to come along.

    depressing first quarter

     

    I remembered watching the Adelaide game and thinking what have they changed in terms of forward set up and tactics, the answer watching that quarter is absolutely nothing. 

    Still long bombing it to outnumbered contests instead of lowering the eyes. Are the forwards leading to space, demanding the ball? (Question not criticism)

    Seriously we are playing against one of the best defences, don’t drop it on their heads!!!

    He's fumbled it twice and still takes 5 years to get foot to ball. But yes, positive!

    We've still got no system delivering into and performing in the forward line. 
    Seems like poor coaching

    If we’d kicked straight, and they kicked crookedly, we’d be well in front, despite Gawn losing hit outs to Nicnat.

    Nullify Gawn, nullify MFC. It's too easy for the opposition to figure out.

    Only saw the least 5-10 minutes.  
    Looked so like 2020 .... randoM inside 50s .... no goals.

    Opposution easy systematic inside 50s .... easy goals. 
     

    What have we learned?


    Forward entry looks like we are still playing 2019 season. Not the start anyone wanted.

     

    Pretty pizz poor so far.

    Would it be wrong and insensitive to want the player's to start needlessly coughing and sneezing?

    Would give us some more time and space ?

    Horrendous. We have learned nothing and improved nowhere.

    • 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.
