    Good play by Hunt to Chandler and tough mark to Anb.

    Goal. We're in front.

    Not having a full strength team will hold us in good stead going forward. In previous seasons (correct me if I'm wrong) we've fielded almost full strength sides from the get - go.

    At work and popped onto the game day thread for an update- honestly thought we must be 10 goals down.

    It’s not a Melbourne game without a Bruce goal ?

     

    We put some actual players in the center and suddenly we aren’t the worst. What a shock.

    Tbh early on we should have been. They have hit the post 4 times. We had just kicked 3 in a row.

    Geez, Hunt standing 5 metres off Bont who takes a handball and kicks into f50 for a mark and goal again.

     


    Bruce legitimately thanked the umpire after he kicked the goal.

    I cant believe that G.Lyon was invited to speak at a MFC supporters night. he is the most negative pr!!k going.

    And Rivers kick is deliberate but that [censored] against Spargo was not. Good to see the umpires still sucks.

    Thank God for Lever and May.

    With players like Jones and Tmac still around its a worry.

    Not sure what Tomlison brings and poor Jetta seems a shadow of the champion he was.

    Harmes needs to step up in the absence of others but has not been great. ANB likewise.

     

    Jetta is another. A fine servant who should have retired at the end of last Season

    they are outplaying us, dogs should be a mile in front. Good taste of footy for the kids 

     

    We are definitely playing boys against men. The Dogs are an excellent team. They are some genuine stars. Our defense has stood up well, but our midfield has struggled and the less said about our forwards the better. Fritsch and ANB the only two who should play round 1. TMac somehow has done less than usual. 

    Happy with that quarter and the effort was much better.

    For a club like ours to be quite depleted as we are, we certainly are putting I some good work.

      As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around?

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
