Jason Taylor was a big Humphrey fan, good to know he’s still got an eye for it. 

After the early morning post match review, straight to the pool room to watch Humphery at 9:30.

    They are a very good side wait till you see what happens to us on KB.

    Yeah I know.

    The two games last year against the Pies confirmed that we can’t go the distance with Collingwood’s manic and fast paced football.

    Port are now becoming trust worthy.

    In prior years this would be the sort of game they’d drop on the road as favourites.

    Anyone see then as a flag chance?

    We play Alice, we won’t get the Darwin game. 

    why not... the Darwin game is an away game and will be rotated through the smaller Melbourne clubs of which we are one

    We lost to Sydney twice last year which many said “confirmed” we couldn’t go with them. 

    I hope the club hasn’t written our chances off like you have.

    This question shouldn’t need to be asked. 

    They are 100% a flag chance. Right now they have claims to being the best side in the comp. They have already shown that, no matter what happens today.

    Because both games are played around the same time of year, and we can’t and won’t be made to travel to the NT twice in as many weeks. It just won’t happen.

    Expected a lot more from The Tiger today. Hardwick would be gutted "watching from home" by the lack of response so far.

    Bit tough they are only a goal down.

    How good is umpiring…. Said no one ever

    Footy is becoming unwatchable. Need to go back to three Umps with the fourth watching from the stand. The AFL need to do something about it but wont.

    They missed heaps in the first half. It was the only reason we were still in the contest at half time.

    Why have umpires stopped paying pushes in the back in marking contests?

    They’re looking very good.

    • 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.
