Doesn’t look good now…

Yeah he might not last the week. They were still a chance for the 8 and they’ve produced this.

    The GC result is pleasing but scary at the same time.

    Pleasing if they beat Brisbane, which helps us.

    Scary as we have to play them next week.

    Hopefully that will mean we don't take them lightly.

    Just a matter of when rather than if. Can't totally blame him in a way, that panel he has looks like a very very weak one, but he's the boss so he pays the cost.

    I really thought they would chase Clarko hard, but he has said so many times that he is not leaving,  that I now wonder if it is Ross Lyon.

    Media saying we can’t play them next week because of COVID quarantine issues. They could get stronger with the return of Holman and Ellis later in the year.  Anyway we have to beat them whenever we play, if we want to end up top 2.

    In a weird way, not the worst time to be looking for a new coach, there's some (seemingly) good options around. Personally think Brad Scott would be a good fit for the Blues, but media saying he's the front runner for the Pies job.

    Yeah that it. If they continue and knock off Brisbane, the less likely we are to take them lightly

    Go gold coast. It would be great if they could win. Also be handy if the saints could knock of west coast. 

    Gee a bit surprised by how easily nth beat Carlton. They have had a few good weeks the blues. A shame nth couldn't produce that performance last week but I guess having Cunnington back makes a difference.

    Can I just say, the way umpires are officiating the holding the ball rule is a blight on the game. I guarantee tonight we'll be pulling our hair out at the lack of holding the ball.

    No, we will be pinged relentlessly in a millisecond, while the Digs will throw the ball and hold it while tackled with impugnity.

    Why should anything change.

    The GC have been slaughtered in the 3rd quarter by the umpires and their pathetic disposal. It is beyond belief how bad it has been this quarter.

    They need one quarter like their first 2 and they can still win.

    And in 20 seconds into the last the GC Captain kicks it to a Lion in their goal square. Unbelievable. Really inspiring.

    Joe the Goose, getting ‘Joe the Gooses’..

    Just switched on.. how is the greatest player to ever play, according to commentators- Rankin going?

    They were very slow out of the blocks to say the least but my goodness they are putting on a clinic now.

    This is the real lions and a worry when on especially smoking Joe.

    • 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.
