Yeah haven’t seen the first half Picket but he’s decision making in the fourth has been strange.

Billings has been great!

No he hasn’t, moments of class but he’s a few steps behind in pressure and contested work.

    Hard to read much from a practice match, but some positives so far:

    Windsor and Brown do not look out of place. Verrall also.

    Rivers strong improvement continues. McVee plays like he's been at this level for 10 years

    Kossie in the middle for more than the first bounce of each qtr is great

    Billings getting a bit of it.

    Viney is massive for our midfield

    A few negatives so far:

    The fumble attempts at marking, particularly by May and Lever

    Turn overs killing us, poor decision making and handball execution

    Lack of pressure in defence. Bolton must have the pox, he's that clear

    Still too many long bombs and poor conversion in front of goal

    Is Langdon playing? Just ran down an opponent, so just noticed him

    Give me his moments of class than our classless turnover merchants!

    Not sure what we’ve done to Windsor’s kicking but he’s now holding the ball funny and hitting the inside of the foot on half of them. He’s been nicely Melbourne’d

    Score please

    Big prediction, but we look bottom 8. You can focus on who is not out there, but the foot skills are as bad as any side in the league

    Its just scratch game but we still seem lacking up fwd.

    What?

    I’m not too concerned about our defense. 
    They’re clearly working of fast ball movement but the skills is still a concern. Sometimes they’re biting off more that they can chew but that’s why it’s a practice match. They are looking at what is working and what is not.

    Hasn’t had an amazing day by any stretch but it’s good signs from JVR you can tell he’s taken a step

    Conversion was off today but otherwise he's looking ominous as a strong marking forward target for us.

    I thought you were backing me up on the whole it’s a practice match thing.

    Yeah no doubt. But defs needs to tidy up his disposal.

After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
