Why do you say that?

We were keen on him at draft obviously and have stayed in touch. Let’s wait and see what happens over the next few years at the Suns…

Sam Weideman is having a really good game tonight. Best I’ve seen him play I think. 
Good to see him doing well. 
 

(have just realised how handy he might be now, damn)

He’s had a few good games this year. It’s good to see him stepping up as a focal point. He’s been better than our tall forward this year for the most part!

    just showed the footage of the north interchange infringement. they had one planned last change. then Shiel hobbled off with cramp and some player ran on

    surely a sensible organisation would just say you have to pull the bloke back off. not wait a minute it’ll the ball is with 50 and hand the game to Sydney. 

    really embarrassing rule

    After his first 2 goals he kicked 3 points. Led/marked well though.

    A couple of those points weren’t from the easiest of set-shots. But yeah, he wasn’t clunking his marks this well with us.

    The problem seems to be when the penalty is called. It can be really badly manipulated, as we saw today.

    Today a free to North was then overturned to pay the interchange penalty. Is that in the rules, I would think not.

    Waiting until the ball is forward of centre guarantees a goal.

    serious question 

    does anyone else get annoyed that the camera zooms in on play and we lose the wide angle view?

    they do it more and more. take that great Cameron goal. zoomed in on him so you lose all perspective. 

    i think this might be my personal pet peeve but it would make me feel better if anyone even got what i’m taking about. god knows my wife couldn’t give a [censored]

    has there ever been a number 1 draft pick that has copped less criticism or interest than McGrath? 

    decent player but nothing special. Jack Watts must be scratching his head

    Dusty Martin is the best kick in the league by a fair margin.

    DubDee - I am with you 100% on this.  Last night there was so much zoom in that viewers had no idea about what was up the field and where anyone was aiming much of the time.  Appalling.

    Who’s the commentator that’s been sucking on the helium? 

    Is Terry Wallace back on air?

    Essendon winning on the siren makes me feel sick.

    That Richmond player that kicked it out of bounds on the full beforehand and failed to register a point was shocking

    I thought it was Wallace at 1st.
    I think it's Burgoyne.

    • 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.
