Thank god that’s over. Terrible quality game. Happy to bank four points and move on.

Well done to Weid on his return. Took his opportunity and was the best forward on the ground.

    That was a great game I thought.

    Got there - a slightly un-Melbourne scoreline (oppo kicked 70 points rather than 50-60) but we got the Melbourne margin (20-30).

    Told you all that Weideman was a good selection pre game.

    Nah jk I put my hand up. That was like Weideman of the 2018 finals series. More of that thanks.

    Tom McDonald on the other hand is depth now. Casey. Whatever it takes.

    One game I'd rather forget and move on with the win.

    Another very professional win. We were challenged throughout most of the game but we've developed an outstanding ability to grind out wins when we're not at our absolute best. 

    Oliver played one of his usual brilliant games. Brayshaw just keeps getting better every week. He and Langdon have become a killer wing duo. Weideman's earned himself another game. Good on him.

    Gus is Mr Fixit, very happy for Weid. 
    Oliver is sublime.

    Keep banking points.

    Those posters who called an end to Weid’s career in the Casey thread last week, the floor is yours.

    Incredibly frustrating.

    Takeaways: 4 points and Weid looked great and took his opportunity, will be great to have him as another forward option this year. Looked confident, and happy! Gus was good out back. Clarry immense.

    Things aren't clicking yet, but we're 3-0, beaten two top 8 teams and plenty of time to work things out.

    On to Port!

    Weid deserves to stay in next week (from a SW doubter).

    TMAC needs a lesson or 2 in humility. Maybe May could teach him, as he was well humbled tonight.

    Clarry BOG. Brayshaw very good as well

    Well done Weid with 4 goals. Keeps his place. TMac back to Casey to try and find some form

    Bank the 4 points and move on

    Looking at Tommy walking off the ground I reckon he knows what's on the cards - possibly no Ben Brown next week, so he might have one more chance in the side but if Brown is in I reckon it's for McDonald.

    Considering the experience that is out, i will take a 5 goal win. 
    No injuries and 4 points at Round 3

    onward…

    Can’t win a premiership in April, but you can certainly lose one.

    Still stuck in 2nd trying to get to 3rd.

    You clamp down on Petracca and all that does is let Oliver run rampant. We are a hard team to stop.

    I know some posters will flame us for the scrappiness of that effort but "Bang Bang Bang" footy isn't needed at this time of year. Bank the points, reset, recalibrate and move onto next week.

    Very happy to see Weideman do well. He keeps his spot ahead of TMac for sure, IMO.

    Bank the 4 and a great deal of regrouping required before Port in 6 days.

    Last week likely took it’s toll but there’s adjustments to be made and some players that need a bit of a rocket.

    Lever et al. can’t come back soon enough and once Brown returns, TMac is on borrowed time given Weid’s performance. I simply believe he adds nothing for us if he can’t take a mark anymore.

    Pickett can’t live off occasional displays of brilliance for much longer either.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
