Cats dominated but missed easy shots.  Tough contest.  Rozee looks impressive.

    If Chris Scott was a NBA coach he would have been sacked years ago, they don't rate coach's that get teams into play off but get knocked out early year after year.

    Is it just my imagination, or does anyone else think that Ebert looks like Warren Entner from the Grass Roots (US pop group late 60s .... classic song "Midnight Confessions")  ?

    OMG can’t believe the Felocentric umpiring.  
    Geelong gets all the soft ones, and Port can’t get a half chance.

    How does Hawkins get away with blatantly pushing people in the back in the ruck in the forward line?

    Port home now.

    God I love Butters. He’s all class and has the right amount of mongrel and crash to go with the skills and pace. I’d trade anyone on our list for him outside Petracca and Oliver.

    Does Chris Scott need a win to keep his job? His finals record isn’t great 7-11 (not including this game) when 3 of the 7 were his first year in charge back in 2011. So 4-11 in 9 years with one of the best teams over the decade. 
    He might want to escape with the aged lost also though

    Pressure in the midfield 

    That’s what Goodwin wants, but we are nowhere near it after 4 seasons

    Great Scott finals record. 
    Hawkins (0.5)  had he kicked straight instead of sulking could have made the difference.

    We were in 2018. Problem back then (and still now) was consitancy in its application. But with the new game plan, that ferocious nature has all but disappeared.

    • 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.
