Tigers dominating the centre clearances.

And smashing them in contested possessions also.

    The Tiges need to play body-to-body more, and to nominate an backline interceptor like Lever. McKay and Curnow are being given a run and jump at too many balls. 

    Blues getting murdered at ground level. Taranto, Green and Dusty tearing them to pieces.

    Not to make the non-MFC thread about us, but the speed teams are playing at this season is worrying.

    I don't think we've got the capacity to adapt to this with our list and gameplan. Might be a long one this year.

    Curnow is just so enjoyable to watch. Will be an all time great. A true KPF.

    Blues as good as they are offensively as they never win a flag without another KPD.

    Haven't capitalized on it though.

    Thought the Tiges held em off very well considering the time in possession & number of entries i50

    Poor conversion by the Blues. I hope they rue their poor goal kicking at the end of the game.

    He actually could be so much better. He's got very little craft or tact - he's all athleticism, footy IQ and skill. Obviously still enough to be just about the best forward in the comp but if you watch closely there's a lot he doesn't quite do that well

    Close game but not the best quality.

    Blues run forward of the ball way too much, Tigers get them on the counter when being a tad more defensive would help the Baggers (Not Goody level defensive).

    Tigers hanging in when they shouldn’t be, Carlton too busy thinking they are world beaters.

    More scuttlebutt about Petty going to the croweaters next year.

    We can't even get him on the park.

    Is it open season on Dees players?

    At that size, to move the way he does, is just freakish. His marks stick and has great kicking technique. Takes the very best to take him out of the game.

    The half time reporter from Adelaide just said that Harrison Petty is almost certain to be wearing Crows jumper next season.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
