Commentators just gave JJ a big up. Well deserved

    They dominated to only outscore us by 7 points. That was great by us to stem their drive.

    They've kicked 5 goals in 3 quarters, need 6 in the last to win,  we have successfully strangled another team

    Worst quarter this year

    Rough quarter. Looked flat, much less running into defensive shape. Glad to get a settler from Brown but that was probably our weakest 3rd qtr for the year. 

    It is however good to see we can hold off challenges professionally when we're a bit down. This is what champion sides are made of.

    Massive. Especially considering both of their goals weren’t even legit. Kings was touched off Mays back and also off of another player, and their other goal was a 50/50 play where petty or king could’ve received a free.

    Nah. St Kilda through absolutely everything but the kitchen sink at us, and they clawed back a total of 7 points on the margin. Tough quarter of having to defend a lot.

    It's what we do when the game is going against us that makes us such a good side.

    As much as it looked like we’d smash them it’s turned into what looks like it will be another regulation 20-39 win with the 2nd and 3rd quarters swapped around.

    • 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.
