I've been impressed with Dunstan's ability to find handball targets under pressure.

     Haymes special this week, all the points. Better off happening now and not in a final.

    Too many selfish shots on goal

    It’s (selfishness) starting to creep back in. I think the lads were a tad happy with themselves coming into this game.

    Surely he doesn't have many goat photos left?

    I've been watching closely and his half hearted leads are doing him no favours

    Not sure you can blame Weid with the ball coming in. It's been atrocious. And he still has two and has competed strongly in the air. 

    Smith a liability defensively. No time for him whatsoever. 

    Has Weid taken a mark?

    This game should be well and truly over by now. 

    Should have been done and dusted at half time.

    Our second quarters continue to be NQR so far but i blame most of that on our play forward of center and lack of poise / forward craft coming inside 50 and inside 50 itself.

    Brown - 10 disposals (6 handballs), 1 goal

    I am waiting for someone to say he's got 2 goals so he's one of our best

    2 straight. He’s an outlier tonight.

    He's kicked more than BBB at this point and everything into the forward line has been terrible.

    Give him a break!

    Melbourne just have so much more run than Richmond late in the game. 
    I am convinced that our game plan is to accelerate our work rate gradually throughout the game.

    • 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.
