    You know those nightmare films where the protagonist is awful because of some curse and everyone is trying to kill them and then they take off some totem and all is good again?

    That is how I feel about Cam Guthrie’s hair. I was all ready to resume my hate of the bloke and I just can’t get it up.

    Shame.

    The grass looks shocking. Let’s hope we don’t see a Melbourne player do a knee tomorrow

    It is a real worry. De Koning went down just slowly walking backwards with no one near him.

    The surface is very shifty in places and be Sue Chris Scott will tell us all about in his presser. Concerts and sport are not good bedfellows.

    Why do they insist on calling it an underground handball? 

    Sounds like some kind of deep thought process from BT

    He’s not playing anywhere near as much inside footy as he did earlier in his career, so he still has a couple years left in him yet

    Was just thinking that.

    He looks as fit and strong as he has in years.

    And he still has sublime skills, and gets value with almost all his possessions. 

    So much time.

    I know it’s entertaining to watch, but would it kill either of these teams to play defence or switch tempo?

    Allowing a team to kick almost 75 points to half time doesn’t seem sustainable.

    Exactly. A team that has solid structures with players that know and stick to their roles will shut this down.

    Howe’s in so much pain. Despite what we might think of him, that’s terrible to see.

    Arm was at right angle. Hate the bloke but would not wish that on anyone.

    Agreed that was a serious collision.. Will be out for a while.

    Agree with BT I don’t think the carnage is surface. Both teams going out really hard for the dub - probably too hard for this time of year.

    Absolutely. Anyone screaming in pain on the ground is shocking. It’s a game and someone just suffered a horrific injury. You just don’t wish that on anyone.

    True, sorry, I just cant stand him.

    Neither can I. But I know for a fact that he’s a really lovely guy off the field. A family friend who is a mad Geelong fan got the Geelong players to visit his 5 year son in hospital when he was battling cancer. Hawkins has since personally reached out to him multiple times to check on the kid. 
    He might be an [censored] on the field, but these guys are still human beings and most of them are completely different off the field.

    • 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.
