Just wanted to thank The HawthornFc for taking Frost out of our Backline. Cheers. 

The difference now with Tomlinson backing up May and Lever is like chalk n cheese. And agree thank HFC

 

This game just re-affirms how big it will be beating Cats and Hawks because both good in spurts but average for vast stretches.

 

Yet another goal from

a Selwood throw 

The one thing this shows is that we cannot allow Geelong too much time on the ball.


The cat's aren't exactly fast are they. I hope the Hawks stay in this game and make them earn it.

carlscum have what, about 80k+ members and only 24.5k can turn up? 

Going to be hard to beat Geelong and the umpires next week. Absolute armchair ride here.

Both teams playing pretty messy footy

very much agree

Cats just that little better and of course a couple of goals in those last few minutes.

Hawkins not afraid to use his body and risk a free when rucking in the forward line. Easily negated by a big leap and knock but the trouble is you can't be sure where the big tap will go to.

Does anyone else think Geelong are the most boring team in the AFL...

I will go back and watch a bit more in a mo but seriously they make doing some housework interesting.

Whorethorn are having a real crack, but their skills are shocking. 

Jeeelong are playing the full press game. 
 

very interesting tactics

Geelong’s defense is their main strength. Should be a low scoring affair. They are immensely gettable though.

Higgins out with a Hammy. Who’s going to snipe Oliver now?

Geez Geelong have been unimpressive. 

May and Lever will be salivating at how slowly Geelong are moving the ball.  If we keep the defensive running effort up, harassing the ball carriers and stay reasonably well organised, it'll be an intercept marking party.

They are in real trouble without Dangerfield to break things up and create attacks.

I'm quietly hoping Petracca puts on a show to make them really feel how much they are missing that attacking power.

Oops, and that's Higgins gone, so they are even thinner for the inside-50 deliverers.

Selwood the [censored]

Wow, how slow was Mitchell then?  When we play Hawthorn Jones should tag him for the speed advantage.

  • 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.
