Clayton Oliver. My goodness if that's a junior game you'd be taking him off the ground at half time as to not destroy the confidence of everyone else. Unbelievable.

    a good quarter could have been great if we had kicked straight. still a handy lead, now start again and build on it, dont go into a shell and try to defend.  Need to continue to attack, and preferably kick straighter. Fritch probably needs to banana kicks more when he is on a 45 degree angle as he seems to miss these the most. Go Dees

    An absolutely incredible quarter. Every facet except... scoreboard. 

    It'll be bloody amazing viewing on the replay... only if we win. Traumatic if we lose.

    Keep the heat Dees.

    Dangerous margin.. hopefully they come out breathing fire and kick straight

    The dreaded 30 point lead.

    We should be another four goals up but it’s clear we are the better team, need to put them away early and kill this contest for good.

    He is the best player in the league…absolutely huge

    Tracc's significant goal on the training track from here on is to find some options by foot or hand when he gets the ball around the arc.  Needs to find some finesse or just kick it to the hot zone if no one available for BB/Macca to take a run at it and possibly Kozzie / Spargs mopping up.

    Should come with alot of hard work but seems a fair way off it right now.

    Closer to goal, within about 30, he appears much more dangerous.

    That was much better. We could have killed this game if we kicked straight. Game is still there to be won but we are doing very well. Brisbane will reset and come out firing. 
    We must come out strong after half time. 

    Yep, play the full 4 quarters Dees, there’s 2 weeks to rest at stake.

    Remember last week. A margin like this is nothing. We have to keep playing fast and working hard. A couple of little bad signs in that last few minutes. Brown marked it outside fifty and didn’t pull the trigger on the pass as he had earlier…… 

    Kepp. Working. Hard.

    McDonald started to get into it & lever  & max looked much better. Just need to keep doing what we did that quarter & finish off. But I would have taken this lead at 1/2 time especially at 1/4 time when it was close

    Trac has been good in close. Two poor shots on goal and a bad entry undid all his good work but his work inside a big reason why we are so far ahead.

    Good kicking is good footy

    If tracc can kick straight / smarten up and we keep this up we should be ok

    long way to go though - can’t write the lions off ever

    I normally scoff at things like this but I’m open to being converted right now. 

    Lions form coming into this game was a mirage. they are a better than average team and not much more

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
