    AFL.com.au - Clayton Oliver records 30 disposals for the first time since Round 2. His match tonight included 31 disposals at 81 efficiency, four clearances, 17 contested possessions, eight score involvements, 32 pressure acts and four inside 50's.

    Epic 2nd half. Proved me wrong. We need him to do that to ale coaches rethink the Trac tag.

    What a wonderful wonderful night for the club. To all the naysayers last week, go gives yourselves a long hard look in the mirror. We're going deep into September this year.

    I apologise for the doom and gloom in the match thread, I just can't help it. Everything about this game pointed to another heartbreaking, self inflicted loss.

    Thank god it wasn't.

    Petty the MVP.

    What happens in the match thread, stays in the match thread.

    How good is Fritter’s body work. Very few in the league with his smarts as to where to be, but also how to use his body which is particularly significant given he’s not a big guy. Amazing forward. Given credit for sure, but largely unheralded.

    The boys apart from some goal kicking executed a great game plan to beat the cats. Kudos to the boys and Goody 

    Great win. Goal kicking, needs finishing attention now, as at least four resultant behinds were due to the kick being taken too close to the man-on-the-mark. Deliver a little further back boys, kicking through the ball with a well-balanced run-up prior to delivery - otherwise, you will (and do) miss certainties.

    How bloody good!!!

    That Fritsch goal was insane. One of the best I’ve seen to seal a match in years!

    But we still need to improve the kicking, it was the reason we lost against Collingwood and Carlton in the finals.

    But overall a great performance.

    Big pump up.

    Been a while since I enjoyed a win that much.

    Was sitting with a mate in GA M2 and gave it to the usual Geelong peanuts who stir the pot behind there.

    Enormously entertaining.

    Had a couple frothing at the mouth.  Anyone else there?

    When the moment might have calls for letting the ball go out of bounds, great players step up and do the amazing.

    • 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.
