So far haven’t seen a team that I can see challenging us.

Nasty nasty knee injury. Port are falling like flies. Not great. 

 

Some ridiculous mistakes in this game. Real howlers

    I dunno. On paper they are so talented but I don’t rate their coach. They’ve had a gun team for so long but something is just NQR. 

    I have it on good authority that s%^t went down badly when Davis was removed as captain in favour of a seconds player.

    This game is a debacle. Horrible horrible skills. 

    Agreed. The difference in quality between this game and the Sydney/GWS game earlier is night and day

    This is a real war of attrition - Port running out of players, but Hinkley is looking totally lost. 


    Fun game to watch tho. Good pressure now from both teams and a tight contest.

    Is the ball made of butter or something?

    Hot and humid in Brissy, round 1, we were dumbly compared to the Dogs too.

    Yep. So you’re just allowed to argue free kicks again with no penalty. 

    They really bring the hate on themselves at times. Seriously why bring in a black and white rule then officiate it with all manner of grey immediately

    I like how Sydney plays a lot. They’re hard and have skilful youngsters. If they can keep their top players on the park this year, they could go deep into finals.

    Yeah I thought they were one of our toughest games last year and with a years improvement into their younger players I think they will be a real danger this season.

    God imagine languishing in the dreaded Sunday time slot in round 1…. What a terrible triple header. 
    Hawks are irrelevant already.

    Definitely. We didn’t win by much from memory. They play like a seasoned team in the attitude they have in that, they don’t seem to drop their heads and they just keep coming at you regardless of the score. Which is pretty impressive considering how young they are.

    based on what i've seen so far this weekend, Norf are warm favourites to finish top 4.

    • 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.
