Genuinely worried about McKay next week. He’s got 10cm on May and in great form.

I reckon you’ll see Max play behind the ball next week and support the defenders

    Gawn will have to drop back to help. 
    We certainly can’t be giving up 17 clearances to them tho.

    “Treloar slams the door shut”

    - Brian Taylor in reference to a Doggies goal that brings them within 19 pts (as opposed to kicking the sealer) Geez BT says some strange things.

     

    The way this commentary team talks about the bulldogs you’d think they were five goals up! Not getting totally outplayed and down by 4 goals. Anytime we get down in a game the commentary team go on about “trouble for the Dees etc” dogs get pantsed and they still talk like Carlton should be worried. Hilarious.

    Carlton win by a point would be good for us.

    Silvagni maybe concussed. Any other injuries? I've just tuned in.

    Carlton are marking well.

    They are up, looking confident and playing with spirit.  

    Dogs are still hanging in there and will come at them.

    Dogs are +12 in the clearances and +5 inside 50s but 14 points down at three quarter time.

    I'm not watching the game but the Dogs' defence has been its weak link all year. I'm not sure a side can rely on its (incredible) midfield all season as a way to both attack and defend. Also Dunkley out probably hurts them more than we might first have thought.

    Meanwhile May's got a huge job next week on Mackay, albeit that our team defence is significantly stronger than the Dogs.

    Classic Selwood duck then for that goal.

    Blues starting to panic a bit now.

    I heard that. It's hard to see to Blues getting up from here. The fat ladies' third act is better than the Blues 4th quarter this afternoon...

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
