Well done to the Tigers. Great effort for their captain and the cherry on top they're now ........ 9th. 😆

Credit also to the size of the crowd that turned up taking into consideration the weather

    Suns have improved a lot this season. I expect them to beat Carlton today and have a good crack at getting into the 8. Would be great to see them make finals (I've lambasted them for a long time, but they are finally showing some ticker). Would be magnificent if they made finals at the expense of Essendon.

    So far this weekend the results have suited us putting a game distance to couple of teams that were breathing down our necks. I have seldon enjoyed two rounds of footy more than the last two rounds and we haven't played in one of them.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see the Tigers get up tonight. 

    No bigee.

    I am never surprised when any side gets up against StKilda.

    Were gifted a soft fixture  won a few games against flat teams and the media started talking about finals. Clueless knobs.

    Don't think there a bad side. Some very good talent but will be vying with a few to make the 8.

    Just noticed Port on top of the ladder. I had to go have a panadol.

    Their defence has no idea. Take a look at  highlights 1st qtr. Wouldn't be a single saints player that would be in our top six defenders.

    They have played one more game than the Pies so it could be an aberration.

    Shades of what is to come with 19 teams. Assuming they have the byes in blocks rather than one team each week and who knows what for the last five rounds the ladder positions will be a relative nightmare on a weekly basis.

    Would love to see Norff and Suns get up this arvo. Blueboyz damn lucky they're not playing "oop north" on the goldcoast under humid greasy conditions. Wouldnt back them in a fit.

    Not sure who I want to win.

    GC puts a game between them and freemantle while a Carlton win gets them within 2 points of freo and perhaps threaten to put them down another spot on the ladder later in the season.

    I'm going to ignore the permutations and barrack for a Carlton loss.

    Because it's Carlton and it's the right thing to do.

    Tx Debauched, yea they were poor. I also think with Salo back we have the best bline going about.

    I hate saying this and I feel dirty but I expect Carlton to win today. 

    Same here after 6 straight but they look poor.

    I said it last year but Levi Casboult would be perfect for our game style. Competes so well in the air.

    Probably keen to leave. Would be a great addition.

    I remember when we use to play in this time slot.. 

    The funny thing is that this timeslot usually gets the best commentator team, usually led by Huddo who by all rights should have Brian Taylor's job.

    • 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.
