We've had a lot of below par performances. Rivers, Salem, Billings, Howes, Sparrow all average

    Midfield getting owned 


    Too often outnumbered at the contest and second to the ball 

     

    Our midfield is having a shocker. What is going on with our clearances? 
    That is a killer goal to give away from an easy centre clearance 

    Quiet night from Oliver.

    13 touches no marks.

    Viney exactly the same.

    Salo mia.

    No midfield 

    No fwd line.


    We are done

    aside from patches we haven’t played well enough to win

    That's a  handy break now 

    Quiet night from Oliver.

    13 touches no marks.

    Viney exactly the same.

    Salo mia.

    No midfield 

    No fwd line.

    This game is gone.


    Have to say this is the worst team performance this season for mine.

    Players running past the ball far too often.  Players fumbling.  Handballs at players feet.  Rivers playing on and handing it straight back.

    Kicks falling short.  Losing the clearances at CBs and stoppages pretty badly surely?

    It's so dodgy.

    We are in this game purely by grunt and effort. Our skills are sub standard tonight. Along with our handball link play. 

    We're not as close as the scores suggest. They are smacking us in the air, on the ground, and at stoppages. 

    Port is an average good side but they always play their Grand Final against us and we get sucked into their ducking.

    Ridiculous that our best mid tonight is a high half forward

    Lever and our defense have been incredible. To concede I my 10 goals so far from this inside 50 onslaught is admirable. Shame our midfield aren't performing to help dig us out of a hole. Still time here but it's tough going.

    • 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.
