    Melksham. Again no impact.

    Two on the trot.Ā 

    He's simply on or off and never the twain shall meet for some reason.

    Just about his worst game.

    That said, that free that was paid against him in the marking contest was a howler.Ā 

    That sort of grappling happens a 100 times a match. And when they mark it they hardly ever pay it.

    But sure, ok pay it.

    Then how do you not pay maxy, Grundy and jvr frees for being mauled all game?

    I am beyond angry with the umpiring last night. Forget tge result, but it was simply nuts hoe many cleat holding the ball frees were not paid - for both sides, but we copped it worse.

    I thought Ray in particular had a howler in the last Q...

    It's ok to let the game go in a finals type tight game (maybe).

    ...but to not pay the sling against Riv (luckily it was picked up by another ump) and JVR having his legs taken out.

    Please.....

    Agree. He and Bowey were not good. Ā When I look at the runners from half back and run and carry , both Bowey and Salem need to do much better.Ā

    People who criticise Melksham need to remember he's often playing on mutch taller opponentsĀ

    • 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.Ā

    • 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.
