This will be some win if the Swans can hang on and hopefully Essendon lose by a point.

    Gee the brisbane swans game is great. These sydney kids have performed well and the forward line of brisbane arent doing a lot. Hipwood and Cameron have barely done anything. Not sure if brisbane thought it was just going to happen or longmire is some sort of genius. This is a very handy lead at 3/4 time.

    Seeing Essendon throw this away is beautiful

    But if they score and hawthorn lose I won’t be sorry either.

    Guess I can’t lose.

    Never turn your back on a swooping hawk.

    Ha once smith kicked the goal in the last 2 minutes I went back to the brisbane/ swans game. Couldn't believe it when I flicked back and saw the final score. The bummers losing by 1 point after leading by 40 is just so sweet. 

    Yes I had to have a look at bomberblitz. and boy did I get a laugh. 

    That loss made my night.

    Interesting watching the Hawks match. Wonder how our backline would function if we still had Frost playing for us, say instead of Tomlinson. Working in with Lever and May would be interesting.
     

    Why is it the Hawks with a young side, saying they are rebuilding, look more organised than us and showcase better skills overall and of course they nailed nearly every set shot for goal. That accuracy kept them in the game. What was our set shot conversion rate today? Less than 50% for shots inside 40m I suspect.it is a problem we have had for the last 3 years but the usual suspects continue to struggle to nail set shots from 30m. And not helped by the fact that Jackson has the total yips.

    I thought both hawks and dons looked average tonight

    • 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.
