Few senior players braving the conditions in the stands including Dogga. For a guy seemingly on the way out he does still seem very invested. 

He is an odd unit. Very active on the Instagram reposting Melbourne stuff too. 
Has he checked out? Or is he genuinely just vague?

    It is indeed

    Great goal Smith. I would seriously consider bringing him to play as a “tall” forward. He could cause some chaos, which is bad in the backline but could be good up forward.

    Smith is having a great game so far, he’s second efforts and forward pressure is something I wish for weids to have. 
    If he continues to have a great game then he needs to come in next week. We need something different up forward

    Brought in by Casey apparently when Daw retired, but had a calf injury I believe so this is his first game.

    Smith’s work rate has been fantastic, unlucky not to get a free kick then.

    Yes we do. JVR is showing nothing in this game. So yes, Smith.

    Tomlinson and Bowey are a class above this level.

    Harmes looks like a VFL player in the AFL, and a VFL player in the VFL

    Bring in Howes instead

    The Blues hit the front in the shadows of half time.

    If you ever want to a game that illustrates:

    a) the value of small forwards

    b) the reason not to pack a team with ordinary talls

    c) Why Harmes is in the 2’s

    then this is it

    Interesting first half.

    The conditions don't suit forwards today, but having watched the first half pretty closely the pick out of the forwards has been Joel Smith. His work rate has been impressive.

    Harmes and Dunstan can’t get any separation at the clearances. Laurie (stuck forward) and White should be given the hit outs.

    Umpires rob us a goal from sheer panic. Maybe evens up the Smith one from the first quarter

    • 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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
