Too cute Bowery.

Langdon too immobile and just looking at the ball

    Blues playing out of their skins. Pretty happy to only be 2 points down, but it’s pretty annoying that we missed some gettable chances because it looks like those will be very important. 

    Can we come out in the second half and turn it around?

    How Jordon continuously gets a game is beyond me.

    He's a worry at times but there are a few out there totally butchering it.

    I don’t know how many times Hewitt has been caught and just dropped it.

    Quality game. I think if we're able to get out the back Carlton are vulnerable but aside from that it's going to be about who wins the most contests.

    The Carlton supporter behind me, I've just about had enough of him. He feels he has to tell out his opinion on every play. If he bags another one of our players I'll scream.

    We better win just to shut him up.

    Well I don't think we can play much worse and it's only a two point difference.

    Feel like Carlton can’t play any better than this and we just need to make a few changes and a few less errors and we run away with this.

    I’ve never seen the kind of pressure Carlton are dishing up. It’s beyond extraordinary. Playing out of their skins. They can’t possibly keep it up, and when it drops, we’re in. Well done boys, hold your cool.

    I do wonder where our goals are going to come from.

    Maybe Smith forward.

    We’re just lucky Carlton didn’t turn inside 50’s into scores in the first quarter. 

    Our defence is elite. We will be OK.

    There is a reason they didn't.

    Out the back (and van Rooyen once he stops missing them).

    Agree. I think we’ll be ok for this reason. I’m not sure that can sustain that, and we can only get better and have been running out games really well.

    Improve our pressure, have more composure with the ball and take our chances and we win.

    Hands down the backline is keeping us in it. 
    If the midfield can lift and start to get some dominance in the contest we can win.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
