Not fun to watch us turn it over ad nauseum; we need a couple of great kicks and not leave it to Lever (who has been good tonight except by foot), Rivers, Hore & Howes whose foot kills tonight have given Port advantage after advantage. 

But I have to say how much I love our grunt and attitude. We can still win this.

50 inside fifties to 32

no idea how we are in touch

Defence has been amazing 

 

Won’t lie, would be pretty sweet winning this after being smashed in inside 50s

Would love for us to come out breathing fire, no repeat of Sydney pls. 

We gotta stop letting route 1 clearances out of the middle

    The majority of their inside 50's have been poor. Looks like us 2022-23.

    That and backline holding up well. Terrific structure and communication.

    our clearance work has been rubbish all night

    McDonald has been doing a pretty manful job on Dixon - there's no way Tomlinson would have done as well.

    @binman you're going to have to make sense of this for me. Lots of un-Dees like trends in this game. Our marks inside 50 are very low yet we are keeping up on the scoreboard. This is something I have noticed in previous games this year. Reckon we are making a point of going for more open-play goals given our issues converting set-shots? Or think this is just a product of our altered game plan with more handball chains of possession meaning we aren't kicking inside 50 to a lead as much?

    • 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.
