Good to see Howes, Laurie, Windsor and Brown on the field and getting touches early. Nice goal threaded by K Brown on the boundary.

    Jvr has all the elements to get excited about.... including accuracy.


    Roo looks our most likely up forward.

    I like Fritsch and Koz as smalls but will need to find a few more big targets.

    Things looking ominous from a Richmond perspective. Demon mids doing as they like.

    JVR kicks our fourth of the quart...errr....period

    25-1

    K.Brown with a rundown tackle! Hands off to Petracca who kicks his 2nd!

    Schache giving the chop out in the ruck. I much prefer this so JvR isn't exposed to extra risk there.

    Interesting that the goals that seem difficult and the ones he doesn't spend time thinking about are the ones Tracca nails.

    Brown looks lovely up forward.

    Max looks as fit as ever.

    Gee I've missed footy.

    Brown looks like he might be a little pest, I might love it

    Really nice passage of play through the middle with precision handballs - unfortunately ends with a Billing’s mis kick, but great to see

    K Brown looking promising. Love seeing Fritta lay a tackle even if it is high.

    I like Lauies skill and run, but a big question mark for me if he has the body and desire to put on physical pressure.

    Tuned in 10 minutes ago and it's been all Richmond and bombs into our crowded forward line.

    Back line being cut apart on rebound


    Richmond with the last three goals as the first period comes to a close.

    31-19

    The tall defenders are going to be a worry with this run and gun system. Lever has brain farts, May gets nervous under pressure and the Tug Boat can’t move the feet quick enough to evade pressure, nor can he defend.

    Some bad kicking leading to a Richmond goal late 

    Had some incredible passages of play in that qtr but mis kicks in both fwd and def 50 leading to missed opportunities and oppo score 

    Kick it high into the forward line.. nothing’s changed

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
