Good thing we have a record of strong finishing. On that basis our poor kicking doesn't matter that much.

Go Dees.

Destiny is calling.

    We have to come out firing. If we have a good third quarter it’s done. But if we let them get back in the hunt it could be costly. They absolutely can kick a big score on us as shown by the first quarter.

    Joel Smith keeping Cameron quiet 

    Salem seems to lack intensity

    Stating the obvious that we're killing them ... shame the game hasn't be buried.

    Should be at least 7 goals ahead.

    Hopefully the missed shots for goal don't come back to bite us.

    Good first half. 

    Defence on top.

    if we could kick straight, it would be game over 

    Dees should be 8 goals up 

    need to keep on top 

    Cameron still dangerous

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

    That’s a very very risky comment, tempting fate. They get some momentum, and things can change. Hopefully not…

    Stay positive bingers, still 2 quarters to go regardless


    Great quarter lads, keep it up let’s put the foot on their throat this quarter. Oliver has been unreal. Hasn’t quiet clicked for Trac. I’m betting he turns it around and has a massive second half.  Go dees

    Riewoldt and Jono Brown trying to justify Toby Greene's bump on the umpire. Seriously give me a break, no room for that crap in the game. Multiple weeks for me.

    we know we came back from bigger margins, and the lions will know a 15minute slip from the dees like we did against Geelong gets them back into the game. So the Lions will come out hard this quarter to try to turn it around. we need to stand tall and extend that lead, we need to starve them of chances and impact their confidence around the ball and goal. Go Dees

    Premiership quarter?

    That was some kind of half from Oliver, far and away BOG. Some better play from his teammates and we could be further in front. 

    Some of my thoughts are:

    - we got the game on our terms that quarter, we were able to set up and prevent them from having any of the goals out the back they had in the first quarter 

    - Oliver and the midfield got much better at winning second and third balls, clearances wise they still seem to be better but we’re working harder

    - we had a period where the ball was camped in our forward 50 but it took a while to get the goal, it was crucial we got that reward for effort otherwise I could’ve seen some frustration brewing

    - inaccuracy has cost us from having the game very close to put to bed. Petracca x2 was the most frustrating and TMac missing his one chance after having a quiet game was annoying in particular

    - third quarter is huge here because we let them get a sniff get ready for a tough final quarter. 

    - them constantly winning the centre clearances is concerning and I really hope something is done about it

    Hope we come out and [censored] superstition into submission

     

    I hope this ‘reset’ mentality is applied to quarters. 
    Need to refocus and smash them this second half. 🔴🔵

    Just sayin.

    Send it through to Bounce. I'm sure they're desperate for Numerology content over there.

    • 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.
