    If May did not give away those stupid frees, it would have been close to his best game in the red & blue.

    I wouldn’t worry about it Dee, I have absolutely no idea of the meaning of what you have just said!

    Serong gets 10 votes, Andy Brayshaw zip.

    While the stats wouldn't support the votes both coaches saw it the same.   Looks like it was the clearance work by Serong.  Perhaps the clearances were critical times that turned the tide. 

    Reckon Andy would be disappointed to not be in the votes at all given that 7 players got votes.

    Some key stats there are 10 clearances to 0. 6 tackles to 2. 

    Brayshaw played well, but he was more a link man off half back flank and not a massive impact. Serong was in everything all over the ground. He started everything for them winning it and going forward and locked it in when he didn’t win it. He had a much bigger impact on the match than Brayshaw and all others on the field. It was a brilliant performance and made me very envious of Freo having him and Young on their list. Both are superb young talents who have now stood up on the big stage of finals.

    Credit to May, really did play a brilliant game. Personally thought Petty wasn;t far off but well done to the big man.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      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.
