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.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!
