What a dam shame we got Meth Coke before they left home...

When was the last time we played West Coast at the G?

Fixture indeed.

    About a minute before Jeremy Howe’s injury, I was just saying how much we could do with him at Melbourne and how he was far superior to anyone we have in our defence, then ... 

    True Jack but let's never forget Howe walked on us. Or at least he and his manager made it impossible for him to stay.

    Starting to look like Charlie Dixon is the standout tall forward of the season, and by a significant margin.

    Although, horrifyingly, Ben King might be his main rival at present.

    Come on T.Mac, come on Weid, there's a loose All-Australian spot up for grabs for any tall forward who actually kicks goals this year!

    i would love to put that to the Prez next Wednesday, that must be front and centre in his mind.

    Let's remember we tried to get rid of him a year before to GWS.

    We are above west coast on the ladder and played two less games. 
     

    Let that sink in. ?

    I just realised that today's games are like some kind of special championship event featuring all the teams where the only thing I care about is the particularly disliked teams losing!

    I checked the season guide and sure enough, the AFL have this marked in as 'shaudenfreude round'.

    Ports drafting the last few years has been top notch.  They have some serious young talent.

     

    Reckon Rivers, Kozzie and Jackson are our “nailed it at the draft table“ year

    Saints running hard both ways and good disposal.

    What a difference it makes!

    Theyre also not having 3 players getting sucked into tackling one opponent.

    Go saints.

    I'm glad I saw your comment, because I'd written it off and just flicked it on in time to catch the Butler and Bolton goals and for the first time this season outside watching Demons a game is holding my attention!

    And they took Duursma,  who would have looked good in RednBlue.

    We're not so bad... if Tim Membrey can jag 3 against the reigning premiers...

    It is hard to pick a winner this season. These shorter quarters are stuffing things up nicely. I don't think we will do any good out of them. We trained well over summer but the fast handballing skills are not there. We would do much better with a normal game time. Hope I am wrong.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
