Underwhelming so far

Hard to do well when your whole first choice midfield isn’t playing to give you first use of the footy.

    Bulldogs have loose players all over the ground. The always have a loose player around the packs to flick it out to. 

    Yeah, we are getting sucked to the contest to quickly, where they have the experience to know to keep one out the back and trust someone will win the ball.

    No Oliver no Melbourne 

    No Oliver, Brayshaw, Viney, Melksham ........Defended well. Our small half forwards need to get to work

    When Hunt was run down earlier for holding the ball two players were nearby with arms open asking for the ball, good to have options but they have to be alert, talk and protect the ball carrier. Happens too often with us. Better end to the quarter though.

    James Jordon is so far ready for senior footy. Drops a simple mark then gives away a silly free kick. 

    Hasn't impressed at all.

    I was clearly joking. But yes our lack of midfielders is clearly killing us. 
    Also our forwardline is hot garbage.

    It’s a practice match

    but jeez we look average (again)

    It’s hard to take this result seriously. We are missing 6-7 of our best 22 including basically our entire midfield except Trac.

    I'm patient mate, but he hasn't started well.

     

    If we keep playing like this,  don’t be fooled by a last quarter rally when the dogs have put the queue in the rack. This is awful.

    • 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.
