I really like Roo as a 2nd ruck. It's no conincidence we got flogged when he was out of the side.

Oliver having a blinder, zero possessions, given away 2 frees and a 70m penalty. 

Useless.

Petty doesn’t want to be there 

Certainly looks that way.

Bowey hasn't been the same since his injury.

If he isn’t up to it he should not be playing. Pure and simple

I may be wrong here but perhaps they’re talking about the principle? Particularly as sub. That is, if you’re good enough for the firsts, you can play a full game. OTOH, someone has to be sub.

I personally don’t really have a strong view on debutantes starting as sub - as long as they get a run in the game. 

The other thing with this is that I am pretty certain Goody or someone within the coaching group, or Richo has said publicly that they wouldn't play a first gamer as the sub, as it's a special occasion, they look after the family, fly those from interstate etc... 

PS,... Tholstrup looking lively

    Good start.  4 goals a quarter wins games 


    Finally a replay of Max being clobbered. 4 [censored] didn’t see it??? 
     

    But good attack chin and finish

    Dissapointing turnout from the fans.

    May has started better 

    Oliver more focused on fighting with phillips.  You're the better player. Use your skills


    Liking Tholstrup getting more of the ball. His belief seems to be rising.

    • 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.
