12 goals up now. STILL NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

What should chandler have done. The part where it becomes dangerous is out of his control. He has to play the game.

He has to roll the player as he's tackling him, or let go and concede that he can't tackle him safely. A strong enough player can hold the falling player in the tackle also.

I'm in the "accidents happen in footy" camp, but that was avoidable.

    Not at the end it wasn't.  He's gone

    Looked at it twice, not sure, was a single action not two  and body was side on, didn't ride him into ground.

    The lesson from tonight is that we all keep learning. BT is not the worst commentator...

    Naish walking through a Petracca tackle wasn’t a good look.

    Give it a [censored] rest mate.

    A chance for back to back here-- FFS its in our forward line.

    She has gone from bad to extremely awful. 
    Her attempts at puns and jokes are cringeworthy

    He let go of the player.


    FMD - in the back against Kozzie.  What gutless biased umpiring. 
    Yet they demand respect 😱

    GO DEES!

    ❤️💙

    Nice tackle from Chandler, unfortunately if you tackle with the intensity needed to take down someone like Viney or Petracca and get some random Eagles bloke and he lands on concrete you’ll get suspended

    • 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.
