Fritta! Trac still BOG for me, got us going.

Should have said 8 goals between Fritta and Brown, instead of 4 each.

    Well done Joel Smith. Played your role well

    Credit to the Crows they came to play but we got the win, kicked accurately for a change, no injuries and playing for the minor premiership next weekend

    Great time to be a Dees supporter

    Dare we dream.

    I'll take a 7 goal win anytime. The game was by no means pretty but I'm pleased that we controlled the game in the last quarter and didn't allow Adelaide to get back in it.

    The standouts were Langdon and Fritsch. They both had their best games for weeks. I also felt really confident when the ball went in Lever's direction. He's one of the best intercept markers in the competition.

    TOP OF THE LADDER, BABY!

    Field day for Fritter. Great to see better conversion from our forwards. It's a funny reversal of the last game we played against these guys. It's hilarious that our accuracy kept us in this one at the start.

    We're coming for the minor premiership!

    “Let’s drop Fritsch” from the game day thread. NFI.

    Would have called for a straighjacket if you'd suggested at quarter time that Fritsch would snag 7.

    The biggest upside today was Langdon, spargo and Fritta all back to their best.

    Great work from Trac, Petty and Jackson.

    Forge the the game I still can't get over Fritsch! When was the last time we had someone kick 7? 

    Hardly touched it in the first quarter, that was up there in Farmer 2000 vs Collingwood territory!

    That was a good win without Viney, May and Tmac. 
     

    We’ve definitely played better and some of our method was questionable at times but gee whiz we’d would’ve struggled without Fritsch.

    Loved that. Wasn’t pretty, but ticked all the boxes IMO. Kicked goals against the run of play in the first, weathered the challenge in the third and buried them when they put up the white flag in the last. Very content with that performance. Did what we had to.

    Bring on the minor premiership battle next week.

    Dropped marks. That’s what makes him elite, and we build the game around him down the line. He dropped 5-6 from memory and was very dirty on himself.

    That game felt exactly like a game where the result didn't matter. We didn't get out of second gear it felt like.

    • 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.

      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.
