Free against Gus was wrong. McKay kicked him in the leg. No tackle.

Betchya we don't get one of those gifts in front of goal

    Do you blokes bag the umps every week?

    we were 5-1 up on the frees at one point. Getting a good run

    Playing like this, it doesn't matter where we finish up next week, we'll just be making up numbers. We keep kicking to the wing, but we have hardly anyone who can actually take a mark or kick the goal when they do, and we have Max who doesn't know where the goals are anymore. I hope they have written "buy a good for forward" and a proper forward coach on the whiteboard. 

    The window for "we'll come good" is getting smaller by the second.

    Ugh, what a waste.

    Not sure how Goody can be happy with Max's forward work when he can't finish.

    More of the same that quarter unfortunately.

    No idea what they do at training, but it’s clearly not working on our forward connection. Just so predictable.

    This is going to script for all our losses. Plenty of inside 50s, a lot of effort for not much reward. I predict we'll get overrun in the 2nd half.

    P.S. we are in front 7-4 in free kicks.

    😬

    Surely we run over the top of a team who played interstate last week. 2 days after us

    Max turning his back to goal really irritates me. Fritsch was in space, not the easiest kick to him but he never even saw it.

    There’s no need to pinpoint everything. This might sound counterintuitive but observe what Collingwood did last week. Gain territory and have a bit of confidence in the forwards to get into the right spot.

    Waiting till things get clogged up again will stuff us.

    Frees:  Melbourne 7  Carlton 4.  But let's blame the umps, hey?

    Agreed. The umpiring has been fine. 


    Defence and pressure solid. Good start

    need to inject some flair now


     

    I've said it b4 and will keep doing it

     

     

    Make Kozzie our goal kicking coach.

     

    He can't miss.

    I think we will win this easy. When we've been losing we've been letting oppos score heavily early. We've tightened up defensively all over and will grind them into the ground throughout the game.

     

     

     

     

    Hopefully...

    • 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.
