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.

    • 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.

      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.
