The crowd is too small for Petracca which is why he only has his 9 touches to half time.

I think you forgot about the two brilliant goals 

Getting dudded by the umps again with two different interpretations of holding the ball

    Dispose accurately at first option and we win this.

    And as mentioned TWO classic 50 meter penalties against Geelong not paid.

    Dare say we probably need another tall target.

    Yep.... i would play Gawn 80% forward with only 20% in the ruck interchanging with Dogga from here.

    We need a tall target at CHF to straighten us up and get the ball to ground.  Will also upset their spare a little

     

    I've loved Bedford's game over the past few weeks but tonight it's showing he just can't go against the big boys. 

    He'd struggle in finals

    Doing pretty well to be only 4pts behind. We haven’t had momentum all night. Get some control and I reckon we can power away.

    Bowey, Lever & May look a little off the pace tonight

    If we’re within 6 goals at 3QT, we’ve got this

    Steven May very fumbly. Lots of players slipping over. Handballing to team mate 1 metre away under pressure. All these making us look 5 goals down.

    But our main issue is our constant missing a target inside 50 when kicking under little pressure. This has been atrocious. 

    Great game though - two great teams pressuring the carp out of each other.

    Yep. He's miles off the pace in this game.

    Think you might be correct

    Why is Pickett anywhere in the team...wtf does he offer

    May...get off and get some confidence

    Sparrow is an overhyped player by many, he's not AFL level

    Gawn, great to see u back

    Aside from everything else, I’m not sure confidence is found on the other side of removing yourself from a team, mid-match.

    Mate the ball isn’t even hitting the pack, it’s hitting the one cats bloke standing by himself 20m away from the pack!

    Out of how many entries. 


    Less than a kick in it. Was never going to be easy on their home deck. Few tweaks to make at half time and then come home with a wet sail ⛵  go dees

    Why was Bradshaw standing 5m back from the mark?

    • 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.
