We score 100 points and still lose, clearly defence lost us the game yet some want to remove our most in-form defender and put him up forward?

Genius... 🥴

IF, we were to try something like this i think it would be Tomlinson, not petty.  Petty is rock solid down back.

if Tomlinson were to play fwd he is also that coverage if we have an injury to Lever/May/Petty.

but to be honest i don't see either as an option,  and i think selection should be based on opposition def if we need to play 2 key fwds and Jackson.  v Freo i think we need the 2 talls

I think its worth a try, in game more than a starting position IMO.

Under the circumstances, and with May returning to solidify the defense, we know what we’ll get from Harrison, and placing him at centre half forward seems the only viable solution at the moment to our underperforming forward line.

Not knocking the idea but i think Petty is just too good a defender so i say leave him where he is

Perhaps try Tomlinson forward  if you absolutely have to, but thats a low probability punt i reckon

We did score 100 points on the weekend with the Weid contributing so maybe its not the talls that are the biggest problem. Forward half pressure is absent at the moment so sorting that out if probably the more pressing issue

It was one of those rare examples of the first team to reach 100 points not winning the game.

  • 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.
