Yeah did I watch a different game...?

Wtf did Petty do? 

I didn't keep an eye on Petty in the first half but he did spoil two goals for Carlton in the second half... pretty handy!

I thought Oliver's lack of discipline nearly cost us the game.

Clarry's "lack of discipline" came after two centre bounces where he was blatantly blocked and held by Carlton's no. 43 (whomever he is). Yes, he shouldn't have responded the way he did, but FFS when will the umpires give Clarry the free kicks he deserves for this type of illegal manhandling off the ball?

Curnow might be the best forward in the game and he had the 1 mark and goal late which came from awful midfield defensive work from a stoppage and that was it for the game. I think it was Petty’s best pure defensive game of his career 

Have to put Melk one, but Petty’s a worthy 2.

Adjudication;

Despite the disparity of free kicks. forward fifty free kicks favoured the Blues. These are 'gold tickets' in close games. Fortunately Carlton's forwards couldn't  deliver.

Broadcasters;

Back to plan B contenders triumph pretenders sent packing.

Overall Comment;

Cathartic and season defining

Don't disagree as to why he was undisciplined but he needs to be better at evening up.  Gawn was blocked and held all night but still managed to play a composed and highly effective game.

Bit mystified by the praise heaped on Petty. May was much better. And I thought Gawn was outstanding. Brayshaw had a heap of disposals, but many of them were terrible.

May was excellent at times but had a couple of howler moments. Including the big gamble off McKay that gifted the goal and a smothered kick.

I liked Brayshaw’s game on Cripps around the ground. 

People get angry on here when you question Gus’ disposals but it was his standard throw it on the boot and pray it works out. And whilst it wasn’t Salo’s finest moment Gus drilled a 15m kick that was nearly impossible to mark just to mix it up from the bombing

That's tough.

But yep I  forgot to name Petty.

I even suggested moving him to ff.

But rightly someone pointed out how many goals we would leak.

 

6- Brayshaw - clear BOG

5 -Petty - Just brilliant and only 21, 

4- Melksham - Already said my mea culpa

3- Gawn - Amazing game, only stood out on replay 

2- Viney - Love his strength.

Q-Tracc - Created and was his best game in 6 weeks.

Mentions:

Kozzie/Hunt/May/Oliver all stiff

Whole team contributed, awesome win that builds belief.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
