    I wouldnā€™t go that far. He did ok, but looked a bit underdone to me.

    I think he definitely improved as the game went on but I honestly thought May was not having a great night particularly earlyĀ

    news.com's take:Ā 

    ā€˜Heā€™s astoundedā€™: Demons star snubs teammate in ugly moment

    Hilarious article, particularly read with the knowledge of how the game played out 9whcih the article doesn't reference - it must have been written and posted almost immediately after the incident

    Haha yeah the 'that's not a premiership side' stuff is over the top, but I do agree with the 'that's not Dees footy' comments. It will get wallpapered over because of how we won in the end, but I thought it was horrendous from Fritsch, and not the first time for him this year.

    100% agree. And it was 'un Melbourne'. Worried me at the time, in terms of our attitude.

    Brown burnt, I think nibbler, really badly later in the game at the punt road end.

    Easy handball to a player in oodles of space for a certain goal, and instead he tries an off balanced snap on his non-preferred - and missed.

    Yep, and Fritsch did it again in the third when he tried to dribble a goal from the boundary instead of centring it.

    Fritsch, Brown and (not last night) Trac all have a selfish tendencyĀ around goals that they haven't seemed to be able to stamp out.

    Yep, good call.

    There was touch of Hollywood about hat effort as well

    Whilst I think the commentators were over the top, there were missed goal opportunities that could have been costly in a close game. Ā

    Hope they learn from those ā€˜mis takesā€™.Ā

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the clubā€™s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the clubā€™s perspective, and the teamā€™s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarksonā€™s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed ā€” roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.Ā  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
