Looks easier to score left of screen must hold them this term and come home strong in the last.

    Good news is we are winning despite being way off our best, if we can get through the next qtr without being to far down then we should get them in the last with the wind and out superior fitness, think we have only lost one last qtr all year

    Good sign that our mids are struggling a bit today & we’re still in front, good efficiency 

    Time for the Burgo belief to kick in now

    I reckon TMac is playing his guts out and going OK. He was the player chasing the Bulldogs player who was penalised for running too far.

    Was surprised at Tmac's burst of speed then. Needs pull down some more marks though.

     

     

    Is it as simple as the wind favours the left of screen?

    The grandstand at the right end should be reducing the wind disturbance?

    Steven May is showing why we so despately needed him. we wouldn't be in this game without him. 

    it's the opposite of our usual games, we aren't winning the contest, or inside 50's but we look really efficient and winning the game. 

    backing us in, but we need to take our chances. 

    A bit like Collingwood last week. But we looked better in the second quarter as we got more of the ball inside our forward half.

    Wind ain’t gonna do it, need to be up at 3/4 time

    actual wind is well below forecast and appears to be dropping on chart, now down to 22kmh


    Can someone PLEASE man the [censored] up on Bontempelli?? I hear he’s a good player. Ffs

    Lucky ricochet

    Bad punch attempt by lever led to goal

    His punching is rather poor. Hit it like you mean it

    Agreed. He isn’t soft. He just can’t kick. 

    He isn't soft.  But as good as he is in the  air it's almost a 180 when the ball's on the ground (which is most of the time).

     

    We’re getting killed in tight tight and off half back and we were still in front at the half. Turn that around a bit and we should coast home. Our movement is relatively good. Tough match though. Also, stop kicking to Tomald. C’mon Dees.

    • 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.
