I wouldn’t go that far. He did ok, but looked a bit underdone to me.

Another good effort joeboy.Ā 
Funny after a big win very few comments in disagreement!

Fritsch - GIVE THE HANDBALL!

Ā 

news.com's take:Ā 

ā€˜He’s astounded’: 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 takes’.Ā

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

  • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
