    We're kicking to a designated spot as if we had three talls. 

    THIS!

    No point in waiting for a positive comment during the game call from these sheet callers.

    NO forward structure but ahead. 
    Ridiculous.

    Merett 21 uncontested possessions. Shut him down.

    But regroup & have a big 2nd half where hopefully we kick straight & roll home

    We have to shut him down I agree. 

    It would help if his direct opponent around the ground (Brayshaw) completed some form of defensive gut running.  I saw Merrett compete and win a ball on the wing and run forward whilst Brayshaw hung back.  Merrett hit a team mate on the forward flank on the chest, fan past for the handball receive and nearly lace a player at full forward all whilst Gus was 70m away.

    All the great defensive work not being rewarded in our forward 50. Frustrating to watch. ?

    Game day threads are always a head scratcher.

    Oliver has continued what he started last week at half time. Take the game on, dont be afraid to take risks to generate run.

    When it doesnt work it looks terrible as he gets caught. But at least he is taking the game on the way the coach wants.

    I understand that some supporters will attack him for it when it doesnt come off and claim him saviour when it does.

    demons getting ahead of themselves picking a small forward line. Fritch has done well and so has mcDonald but they have always had another tall taking the oppositions big men as well. The next half will show what sort of team we are , are we fighters and worthy of being on top of the ladder or are we back to failing against weak opposition as we did against adelaide and collingwood.

    Heat of the moment comments ought to be taken with a grain of salt.

    Anyone else think that goal kicked by Jones was already in the front row when his boot connected? What a joke to show a blurred ball on the replay as apposed to the real time. Blatant effing cheating. 

    Clearly a goal.

    Kozzie needs recalibration at Casey 

    Do we put him into the middle to shadow Merret?

    Leave Harnes in there also.

    Tracc to HF.  Viney relieves Tracc at HF and plays a bit of time in the middle on occasions ...Kozzie goes forward again when he does

    Kozzie needs to pass the ball off more often especially when having set shots from an angle or a long way out.

    Well I must be in the minority I don’t think Ben Brown would have made the slightest bit of difference so far.

    I thought we lifted in the 2nd when Oliver started to dominate.

    • 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.
