Sorry for the repeat posts.

Phone playing up.

I'd sub Woey on for Chin. Surely.

I don't think I've seen blues penalized once for htb.

Funny last week it was  7 out of 10 frees .

I was going to say our backline has imploded tonight but if our midfielders let them waltz it out of the middle then it's tough.

Pickett fence you were right Jvr is having a rough season.

Kozzie simply took his eyes off the goal then. Looked away for some strange reason and missed 

What a shame we let the blues kick the first five.

We have responded well this quarter.

Of course the umpires haven't given Carlton another dozen frees in the 2 nd and 3 rd.

Gee there have been some really unforced and lazy efforts by not a few tonight.

I hope Goody drops a few.

Billings one.

 

BILLINGS NEEDS TO BE DROPPED.

    Fritta really needs to lift. Petty has gone back to playing bad footy.

    What is it with Thursday night games and our capacity not to play well

    We did alright against Crows
    😉

    Half chance 

    Fritsch. Kozzzy.  Chandler.  Kozzy. 
     

    all missed.  
     

    needed to get 3 of those.  Not desperate enough 

     

    chin off.  Woey on !!!

    We need to learn from this game and stop gifting games to any player out of form. 

    I agree Sam.

    Unfortunately Goody is stubborn and seldom makes statement changes.


    Won't win but I reckon we'll get within 20 points

    one or two more to end the quarter.

    First things first we CANNOT concede the quick reply from the blues as they have done all game. 

    We really need to snag two more to keep this to 3 goals in the last. 


    Gee we have ruled this quarter.

    Lost it at the start with being asleep and some shocking umpiring.

    Remove the latter from the first quarter and we would be down by two or three goals.

    Well that would be a better result.

    Bowsa might’ve been the wromg option on a wet night.  Plays the short game too often which is not what's needed in the wet.  And the decision to kick to the smallest guy in the forward line coming in under little pressure.

    Probably needed a run at Casey first and kept playing Woey on a dewey night who plays a longer game.

    Chin trying hard but doesn't impact often enough when he gets his opportunities for mine.  And aside from a few moments in this quarter his F50 pressure in general hasn't been at the  level you'd expect from a small pressure forward.

    Classic Langdon undercooking a shot on goal at a pivotal moment.

    Billing’s that’s enough. How many chances 

    C'mon I saw him kick it to a team mate who marked it.

    What more do you want?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
