This game was not as important as the Swans losing, but wonderful to see the umpires lose a game they tried to win.

Good weekend.

    OMG the Bont free kick situation has got completely out of hand

    I only saw a few minutes but that last gift goal was an absolute travesty - dropped the ball in a tackle then gifted the free.

    You know the Bont is winning the Brownlow just by how much the umpires love and protect him

    This isn't as good a result for us as people think.

    If we go 2-1 from here and the Dogs go 2-0, the Dogs will finish above us - even with this loss, we still have to win all three games, and/or the Dogs have to lose to Hawthorn or Port (in Melbourne), for us to finish above them.

    It's certainly possible (Port's in form, for example), but it's still not that likely.

    But Essendon's win puts them in pole position to finish in the top 8, particularly if we beat West Coast tomorrow (Essendon has the percentage buffer over all their competitors).

    Last night I said GWS had given up on the season.

    Today I said the bombers looked horrific.

    And, last week I said how glad I was that Peter Wright didn’t come to us.

    Im on a roll folks!

    this weekend has shown the teams playing for finals spots are dangerous opponents. WCE are in danger of dropping out so we have to bring our A game. A slow start is not acceptable tomorrow

    You do realise that Essendon have an easy last 2 games and will probably make finals now and we have to put up with there arrogant fans. They are actually not a bad team & could cause some trouble.

    Bont clearly has won the Brownlow. Umpires fawn over the bloke. It’s sickening.

    If Clarry got the same love he would win it this year with the highest votes EVER

    Nah. Don't stress. 2 meter Peter will never play a game like that again and the bombers wouldn't kick as straight again. They'll do nothing in finals

    100% HTB  No grey area. But even if not HTB, dangerous tackle?! Is that ump for real?

    So some people are already celebrating top spot and we have not even played yet. And top spot means nothing until the end of the final series.

    Did we just Steven Bradbury to spot? 

    We haven't done anything yet.

    First we have to win tomorrow. That puts us on top.

    Then we have to outdo Geelong and the Bulldogs by a game, because we'll only be half a game in front.

    So, if we beat West Coast tomorrow, and then Adelaide, but lose to Geelong, both Geelong and the Dogs will pass us unless they lose another game (which requires Geelong to lose to St Kilda, or the Dogs to lose to Hawthorn or Port).

    • 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.
