    He likes to overlook that they were horrible under him just 18 months ago with the same list. I’d be hiding if I was him.

    Nothing has changed except he’s not there.

    I found it interesting that once we decided to go all out attack we barely let the opposition move it forward either.

    Keep them unsettled with relentless attack and it just encourages them to rush it and bomb it to the loving arms of Lever. We experienced exactly the same mental paralysis in the two bursts where Brisbane got runs on against us - far too many hurried, thoughtless kicks 'away from where they are' rather than purposeful attacking 'to where we want it'.

    We will not get within 10 goals of them the way we play.

    They attack the Game and look for the shortest route to goal

     We should give it a go  the last time we did it was  a Grand Final

    It’s very effective

    Agree with that.

    We have the talent not the gameplan, and as you e already pointed out we know what to do.

    That talent is no good if it doesn’t work hard enough

    Are the filth fans booing JHF? Why?

    Because JHF leaving North has everything to do with Collingwood, right?

    I’m at the game and they’re absolutely ripping into the kid.

    If the bookies don’t have Collingwood as flag favourites by tomorrow night then they’re having a laugh.

    Not sure if the stats back it up but the eye tells me they have the perfect blend of offence and defence to certainly win the flag.

    Let Collingwood be flag favourite.

    It's March.

    Remember what the media was saying about us in March-May last year? About how we were unbeatable and we were going to break winning streak records and we were miles in front of the rest of the competition etc?

    I don't want us to fall too far off the pace but we're also one year removed from a stark reminder that the side who wins the flag isn't always the side in peak form in March.

    At Round 10 last year were were 10-0 with a percentage of 161.7%. We were two games and 18% clear of the next best side at the time, which was Brisbane, and we were 33.4% in front of the side with the third best percentage, which was Fremantle.

    We looked, and were, "scary good" last year.

    Again, it's March.

    • 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.
