Try Toby in the middle, as he hasn’t done a thing and should be fit and fast, if they can give him the ball at stoppage.

    Apart from continually letting Port move it from full back to half forward with a series of uncontested small kicks (which is making me yell at the TV screen) our contested ball play is killing Port. And funny how good BBB looks when a kick goes to his advantage!

    21-14 hit outs but only 19-31 clearances. Nothing changed from last round. Still a big problem.

    Doesn’t help that we are missing the best clearance player in the game.

    We never seem to have any fwds on the goal line. Infuriating

    instead we keep them around the 50m mark to try and keep the ball in the f50

     

    This is barely watchable.

    Tmac hasn't torn this season apart but since he's been out our fwd line isn't functioning as well.

    Clearances 19-31. Ffs. Again 

    Haven’t won a clearance with Jackson in the ruck. Has been horrible with his connection.

     

    I thought for a year now that Port had cleaned up their act, but my faith has been restored, they are still the same mob of dirty bast$#%@ that they always have been, and, when you get the imprimatur of three maggots to push, pull, punch and scrag,  well it's all go, isn't it.

    There is a bloke missing for us.

    Stoppage clearances 22 to 11 at 3/4 time Need to lift

    I know be pessimistic is a right of passage on this site but OMG Kossie is so far the best little man in comp

    Let's not forget how many players have missed games thus year due to injuries  and protocols.

    You can't just waltz in after and absence and play your best by any means.


    Sparrow zero awareness ... my god

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
