Good teams just find a way to win. 26 points up with a couple of minutes to go and our boys are still chasing opponents down. Keep accumulating those 4 points.

    I'm obviously happy we got the points, but it felt a little flat. Not even sure who our star was. Probably Tommy in the first half. And some of our smalls kicking goals when we needed, Spargo, Kosi, ANB etc. 

    Will need to lift big time against the Doggies and lions.

    Personally, I am really pleased to see the team function well - and in particularly the forwardline - in the first game of the iteration that they have presumably wanted with Brown, Tmac, Weid and Fritsch in.

    29 scoring shots - plus a couple that went wide, in wet conditions.

    Satisfying.

    Haven't seen the game but a few things I noticed were:

    1. Carlton kicked 10.8. That is the fourth consecutive week we've conceded 18 scoring shots, which we also conceded in Rounds 1 and 2. It is the highest amount of scoring shots registered against us all year (the other three games were 13, 15 and 14).
    2. The fourth quarter was level. Whilst we didn't win it, we obviously also didn't lose it, meaning we've still only lost one fourth quarter all season.
    3. An interesting flip in clearances: this week we were +1 in centre clearances but -16 in stoppage clearances.

    The game was without commentary on TV. All i heard was barracking (for CFC) by BT and Brayshaw.

    NVM, we stuck it up 'em in the end.

     

    Go Dees!

    • Hunt best game for a while
    • Spargo best game for year?
    • Petty looked more assured 
    • Brayshaw better but still a bit wasteful 
    • River's continues to fly under radar 
    • Chandler not ready but wouldn't mind seeing him play at least another game

    Im sure we will soon. I dont think we are playing our best with the same slow starts.

    Full credit to us though we got another raw deal from unprofessional umpires but like every other match we just kept pushing and pushing.

    Our fwd structure was off today as was our midfield in the first half.

    We will sort it out and find our best form at the best time.

    Max seems tired as does Trac but you cant keep champions down.

    Full credit to Langdon again. Just always playing his absolute best and never kwts us down.

    Spargo growing in confidence.

    Olivers fitness is fantastic.

    Where woyld we be without Tmac...five and four if lucky.

    He is as good as he ever was.

    Well done Trac for helping wash all that stuff out of Chandler’s eyes. Poor bugger really copped a proper Gatorade (and Milk????) shower.

    He is horrible! Worst commentating of a game ever. Also when will the commentators start actually talking us up. Just because we are not Richmond they always have to criticise and just sound down about us!

    Decent win. Did what we had to do. 

    Defence is solid and dependable. Not sure about all the talls up forward. Pressure game was off. Clearance work so so. Skills weren’t great but it was tough to hold onto the ball in the conditions.

    TMac excellent first half. Salem was probably best for us overall. Lever and May very good. Oliver did some good things. Most players contributed.

    Trac trying too hard. Just needs to forget about the contract and do the simple things well.

    The Weid did ok for his first game. Chandler offered little and will struggle to hold his spot.

    I liked the fact that Kozzie showed some sportsmanship. He should be applauded for that.

    They say the hallmark of a good team is to win playing badly. So shouldn’t really complain too much. But it would be great to see us hit out stride and play well for 4 quarters.

    We bank the 4 points and move on.

    Go Dees.

    9 from 9 but we need to lift. It must be difficult hating life.

    Good win without really getting out of 3rd gear. Jimmy Jordon had a great game for me. Bit wasteful in front of goals, else the margin probably would have been 8-10 goals. 
     

    Seemed like Carlton were the only team on the park where the holding the man rule applied

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
