WHAT A GOAL BY CHANDLER

Speed, smarts and composure.

Chandler is definitely up there with the best small forwards in the comp on current form.

I'd say up there as the most improved player in the comp

    Hope that late goal doesn’t prevent Goody for giving a few of them (namely Tracc) a good spray

    Why is it that our midfield always needs time to get going? Does Yze put them to sleep with his pre-game talk

    Backline needs a rocket. Midfield needs a rocket. 
    Rowell needs to be shut down. Maybe Sparrow to just shut him out of it.

    The way Chandler is playing is the reason you give them a real grounding at Casey 

    brilliant goal

    Getting beaten at stoppages.

    Fritsch unsighted.

    GC running players through centre square often outnumbering us meaning easy inside 50 kicks. 

    Defence mindset not strong from our midfield.

    Chandlers read the Dragon Scroll.

     

    Centre clearances 5 to 2.

    Marks 28 to 17.

    Both against.

    Trac, Lever, May, Anb, Langdon, Fritta and Viney all need to get going. 

    Powell with 12 possies.

    At least we've been efficient inside 50

    Edited by leave it to deever

    The opposition is up and about its game on

    Backline look all at sea since Petty been moved.

    Get him back and Brown in

    Leaders might want to step up this quarter. Max 2 touches, Viney 2 touches.

    Move Trac forward to bring him in to the game perhaps. Tell May to stick to his man and defend, not look for the easy intercept.

    Fwd structure a mess

    Has been for a long time but gee they make it hard for them, when are they going to learn to kick it to the advantage for the forwards ie, if the forward player is facing boundary side kick it there not to the opposition side of them.

    I agree. Petty is good forward but he’s too important down back.

    • 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.
