Bailey Laurie has not offered much today 

But somehow more than Petracca

 

Tomlinson has been good.

    A better quarter, game is not really on our terms. I liked the use of tempo footy, needed to make the Hawks do some running without the footy. Coaching staff know what they're doing.

    Has alot of mates today 

    Some real Bin Diesel performances 

    Still not clicking at all and with Hawthorn having 2 of our 3 most important players missing makes it worse. Too many players have been underwelming.

    I couldn't believe the stats 0.0, 2 disposals. I hope his tackling is off the charts otherwise....

    I am beginning to think May doesn't have a right eye. Never kicks to the right, never looks to the right. Twice he had a wide open switch to the right and went down the left to 20 players.

    It’s impossible to enjoy watching Melbourne games. Never put sides away early and result always in doubt.

    Btw my constant issue, we are going at 50% kicking efficiency to 87%. Why is that?

    Hawks never kick out from a behind to a contest. May... most times

    Kozzie:

    - underperforms for several rounds. 

    - causes debate among the supporters

    - questions asked by the pundits 

    - plays an absolute blinder

    - dissenting voices told to eat their words 

    Repeat.

    Replace Laurie with Schache. Maybe he could take a mark inside 50.

    Wouldn't hurt

    Ditto Salem. There was one play he marks in the middle of our D50 with the right side of the field wide open to run and carry, kick to space. He just stays static for 10 seconds looking at the left (from where the ball came from originally) 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

    Nibbler been very good.  Melk of course.

    Viney fabulous

    Smithy's done well

     

    Just like the Carlton game.......

    Poor by Bowey then.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • 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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
