On the plus side Clarry's hand and touch looking much better.

Yep, he’s been very sharp early.

He’s a much better version when the hands are firing

Do we look as putrid on telly as we do at the ground. Where is our pressure? Our skills? 

Petracca is having another mere, very ordinary season so far.

Why? We have midfield names that should strike fear. Instead we're constantly on the defensive. I think it's part of the gameplan but it's garbage and will fail in finals again.

You gotta ride the waves of the game. We will win by 40+. Tigers giving it everything after being embarrassed

Very much so.  Quite common after a buy early on but the question is can they clean things up AND get some run and finish happening.

Need more from our mids. Trac has started poorly, a couple of poor turn overs from Oliver too.

I think Oliver's hand is not fully healed yet. You can see he is not as clean on ground ball gets.

I know it's early and we've missed a few but we have to be better than this. That unpressured kick from Viney straight to a tigers player was strange. We seen to be making quite a few unforced errors. Our backline as usual has been good but it's our midfielders not dominating again. We look lacking in confidence and intensity somewhat.

Lot of decent first efforts but then we have a lil rest and they sprint forward.

I would really love if we could string together some chains and lift the level of footy, because it's not that enjoyable watching us butchering the ball against a weak side.

Pulling out of marking contests, not sticking tackles, thought I caught a glimpse of him on the bench with trainers/doctors inspecting his hand

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
