    [censored] Gary Lyon ay? Tell him to shut the [censored] up. Decide if you are part of the club or not.

    If you want to be then don't sink the [censored] boots in at every [censored] opportunity 

    He’s a commentator mate. Needs to be at least a bit impartial. Watch him at the GF and see if he is part of the club. 

    how about a bit of respect for a club champion???

    He’s not being impartial he’s been overly negative. It’s unprofessional.

    The biggest things we need to take out of this game is that the umpires will not tolerate "who do I give the ball to" BS. 

    We were the masters of that last year, and I'm not sad to see it go.

    It’s a good rule change. It will be applied too strictly in Round 1, but the answer isn’t to whinge about it but to adapt to it.

    -62 disposals, - 3 CPs, -14 clearances, -8 tackles. 

    Pre-season or not, we won’t be winning many games of football this year with those figures.

    I reckon this game is teaching us all a few things.

    …..

    And fourth, tonight is a more real game than last week (too many read too much into a genuine scratch match) but it’s also not a real game. Remember,  we got belted by the Dogs in this game last year.

    They look quicker too. We have been chasing them so much. They look a bit rattled too. Need to slow their momentum down and get our forward pressure game up and going.

     

    Dropping marks, fumbling, I’ll discipline and not switched on. 
     

    Good thing it’s a practice game but if we come out in the 1st round like this it will be good night Charlie. 
     

    A few things to work on prior to rd1. 


    I feel like the umps are umpiring Melbourne per 2022 rules but not the Blues. Saad should have been holding the ball if Petracca was.

    I wonder how hard they were flogged during the week? 5/6 premiership backmen make us a completely different side.

     

    im looking forward to seeing us live in Round 1 😉

    I was at the grand final and the post match. He was clearly a demon man who loved the club. 

    Can't stand him commenting Melbourne games. Constantly negative. I'm enjoying the game apart from him implying that we are getting ahead of ourselves. 

    He has been like it for years. His attempts to be impartial is the problem. He needs to be taken off Demon games.

    With all the talk about our boys feeling for the members back east missing out on the premiership party, I have no concerns that the boys won’t show up for the unfurling of the flag in round 1.

    We’ll be mentally switched on in 2 weeks time. Let the baggers get excited over a win in March.

    Bowie's clinical disposal has deserted him early this year I think.

    But the Blues are taking this game so seriously, so no wonder they're winning. They're a bunch of professional footballers - they should win a match they're taking seriously against a team out there because it's in their contracts and not much more.

    great pressure last 10 mins.

    What was the free kick against Langdon for ? (Watching on mute)

    High tackle apparently.

    Petracca came in and got him high. Was there when shown on replay.

    High on Petracca who came in second.

     

    Lazy sloppy performance, players laughing during the game, only a practice match but pretty unprofessional I think.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
