    Once again a late call by the ump means we play on and take the “advantage” which turns out to be the opposite of to advantage. FFS I hate that rule

    First qtr thoughts. 
    Trac looks off.

    Fritta doesn’t look like he has missed. 
    we have been sloppy but got better as the qtr went on.

    Going by 1st qtr no idea still why Turner replaced Thommo.

    Melksham and Kozzie look lively.

    I want to see how many minutes Trac has spent on ball this quarter. My guess is less than 5

    This has the stench of the AFL doing everything they can to get a final played in Sydney.

    Yep, there's already a load of smoke beaming up from AFL House.

    Petracca continuing on his poor form from last week.

    He's checked out since Oliver is back, very worrying

    Why not call it back when it’s obvious there was no advantage. Should be in the rule book

    Boweys form not great heading into finals 

    Surely Hibberd comes in for Bowey & Hunter’s possessions are ineffective & his tackles are like powder puffs

    It's a joke. Such an infuriating rule. E

    Often either turns out not to he an advantage, or in the event every just stops, an unfair disadvantage to the team the free has been paid against.

    I wonder when a side will man up after a point against sides, shut it down instead of letting it out.  If you look down the ground after a swans point every player is up around the midfield area, pull players back have less congestion and allow players to run onto it or over the back.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      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.
