That Bedford fumble. Little moments matter so much in games like this.

That was the turning point.

Second on the ladder now too.

    Such a predictable garbage ball movement from the half back. Kick long to a pack. Nobody marks. Geelong runs away with it. It’s pathetic. 
    These old [censored] have made us look so second rate tonight

    How many down field frees has Kozzie given for the season

    How many pressure acts by Kozzie have seen kicks smothered or skewed this season?

    Top spot gone after that goal. With Blues, Freo, Lions and Pies to come, it’s going to be tough to finish top two.


    4 goals down, 4 ½ minutes to play - yes, possibly, but extremely unlikely.   Has Clarry been subbed?

    Answer my own question - no

    20 points.   Maybe.  Bridge too far at this time in the 4th

    Gawn came back way too early. Hurt us tonight. 
    Been uncompetitive. 

    Never seemed like a good idea 

    Why do Melb insist on gathering the ball off the ground when under severe pressure when a knock on or quick slap forward might allow your players to run onto it and clear congestion.

    This is most likely our worst all round performance this season IMV given the ins.

    Feels like the bulldogs game last year at a similar time. Looked heavy, fumbly, got close but ran out of legs.

    Lost the contest all night , that’s been the main difference.

    Fumbles and poor forward entries just the icing on the very bitter cake really.

    We are not as good as last year. It’s going to be almost impossible to win.

    And Kosi’s miss

    Awful technique.  Tried to guide it through instead of running in a straight angle and letting the curl of the ball off the boot do the work

    • 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.
