Agree, another balls up of an opening game. 

On ya “ Gill “

Weelll! At least the footy’s back on. That’s something. Young worth watching.

 

The only thing missing from this game is Phil Gibbs and Ted Henry on commentary.

And it's just gone 8:30 - what's on SBS?

The ads are nearly as bad as the commentary. 

FMD, how many betting ads are there these days? Disgraceful

Go back 3 years and Dusty would have torn this game to shreds. He is starting to warm up, but looks 4 or 5 games away from doing what he can do.

Both midfields look so pedestrian and workman like, but with no excellence, or burst away player. 

I am a huge fan of Charlie Curnow, but he is playing a very Sam Weideman ish game - getting to everything but not completing a mark, or a play. 

Cotchin is shot. 

Shai Bolton - yes please. 

Yeah great call about Dusty.

The pressure isn’t off the charts and like you said, 3 years ago he would probably have 2 goals and 3 goal assists by now and Richmond is up by 30.

 

Blues still in the sheds it seems

He could still explode this year but I’ve always felt Curnow is very inconsistent. 
 

He has the potential to dominate but it feels like he goes missing for 2 games at a time then explodes and kicks 5.

If it’s not ‘his day’, he’s a middle of the road forward. 
 

As much as I hate to say, when Hawkins has a terrible day, he’ll still be involved in at least 2-3 goals.

Prestia is killing it. Unfortunately he us dishing it off to Taranto who can't kick.

He must’ve heard you, Dub

Maybe we should have a game day thread for all the games lol

Tigers defence non existent 


Carlton has defended well. Something very familiar about their defensive structure...

 

How has no one fixed McKay's ridiculous kicking style yet?

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
