Our handballing in close is being read too easily (happening for 3 weeks now) by opposition. Intercepted over and over again. If not this, our handball target is consistently the wrong option or at the wrong time.

    Goody needs to tear strips off em at 1/2 time. Coaches also need a rocket, starting with Yze and Chaplin.

    We look like we don’t want to be playing today. Do something Jack.

    This will be a good test to see if we can lift in the second half. Leaders need to lead

    Spargo called for it then fell over.

    hes not much taller standing up, was a lazy option but he had little else 

     

    Unless something changes we aren’t winning today bombers just doing the same thing over and over

    Spargo, Chandler & Kozzy all having the same mare


    Essendons nailing every tackle today. They are getting free and hitting there targets.

    We are bombing it, overturning it and can't get a goal.

    We’ve set up our entire game around our stars playing well and when they’re either injured or down on form our lesser likes struggle. Same as last year.

    • 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.

    • 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.
