The 4 points should go to May. A deadset one man fortress.

(But to be fair, Salem, Trac, Rivers, Langdon, Lever and Weed were also great ).

A lot of passengers, though. Which is disappointing, but also kind of promising - imagine who we can beat if they get involved!

 

The back line as a whole did a magnificent job.

    The backline was incredible. We got shown up by the Dogs last week in terms of defending the width of the ground but we clearly lifted today. 

    May should get 3 Brownlow votes. Lever and Hibberd weren't far behind. Rivers played well too.

    Steven May trade is a massive, massive win

    Rivers looks very good too

    We've got a real player there in Rivers.  Love his dash and courage, and he is a good user of the footy as well.

    Don't want to hear another word about the trade for May, i think his performances over the season and especially tonight have justified the pick 6.

    A trade special.

    And, if you go back and take a look, some shockers in the changes thread as well.

    That was a big tick for Goodwin tonight.

    Very happy, just a strange game and not used to seeing us win like that.

    Yes i 100% agree.

    Was impressive to be able to stop Aints scoring and actually rebound and control the game.

    Lucky I went to the bottle shop and stocked up today.   Ugly game,  take the win,  turnover still a massive issue

  • Quote

    First time under Goodwin that we executed a specific gameplan for a specific side. Some horrendous turnovers as we tried to implement a possession game with our skill set, however that was a confidence builder. Reminded me of what Geelong did to us. Denied the oppo their 1 wood first and foremost

    Big step - when was the last time we reversed the momentum and got the game back on our terms and won an arm wrestle? Probably 15 years. 

    i thought we were going lose by 5 goals about 5 minutes into the 3rd quarter.

    Tough game to  watch in the last quarter however the Dees  did it for all of us supporters.

    May and Petracca  were the two best players on the ground and couldn't split them. 

    I want to give some credit to Josh Wagner he was consistent all night and he can hold his head high. Well done Josh.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?
