What happened to our forward press? It used to be impenetrable. Now teams go coast to coast with ease. Are we unfit or not coached enough on positioning?

Onfield leadership and fitness have killed this part of our game. No Brayshaw, and Bowey and Salem constantly injured has really hurt. 
We're also playing Langdon up the ground so he can't get back in time to provide an additional number.

    They might be trying for more forward, momentum from Monners?

    Possibly.  In that case make it McVee.

    Tommo is the wrong option imo regardless

    Why is May playing behind Hipwood 80m from the ball? He has no chance to impact that contest on a normal sized player let alone someone with Hipwood's height. Dreadful defending, but of course letting them waltz out of the middle doesn't help.

    Hipwood looks like someone drew Rafael Nadal from memory.

    is the sporting globe shut?

    The sporting globe in Richmond was getting refurbished a month ago. Was closed, I even looked on their website before I went, and there was no indication. Ended up going to"the spread eagle", 372 Bridge Rd, upstairs, asked for some volume and they turned up the sound.

    Oh My God. 

    I always think to myself (what a wonderful world), does our club call our bad - and I mean really bad, totally inept - umpiring to the relevant people in the AFL. Or do we shrug our shoulders. 


    From the AFL match website

    Since Round 12, the Demons have posted a shot at goal accuracy of 42.1% – ranked last. They have conceded a shot at goal accuracy of 63.0% – ranked last. Tonight they have a shot at goal accuracy of 17%.

    • 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.
