Any positives? We're only 11 points down 😀

4 actually

and NO injuries (touch wood)

Good to see Petracca has obviously learnt that a high ball drop and exaggerated arc pays dividends as he kicks yet another piont🤮


A lot better ball movement this qtr/eight whatever

Windsor, brown, verrell, all getting a bunch of it. Viney and petracca popping up when the game needs correcting. Koz looking dangerous, sparrow looks more confident. There’s a bunch, don’t let 8-15 panicky posters think the sky is falling in the first 3 quarters of a practice practice game get you down

 

Zero injuries is all I want from this game. It’s the only thing of relevance to round 1

Caleb getting involved this quarter. Kynan Brown done a few good things. 
 

Less tackle today than an empty fishing box though.

Hore or Adams better play well in the seconds because you couldn’t pick Tomlinson for round 1 based on this effort 

Rivers ball use has been deplorable

He has been atrocious. May not much better though. Lever the only real stand out in defence.

Doggy Brown Jr gun

Excited Pup GIF by AT&TYouthful enthusiasm! Love it!

Billings been good

The Sparrow charging up the middle and a kick goes to 2 players getting in each others way is the big thing to review in terms of structures.

A mountain of fat side space and an open 50, short of a completely flubbed kick or simple dropped mark that has to end with a set shot.

I think there were (and are) enough worrying signs against a second string outfit to warrant some panicky posts, pre-season or not.

    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.
