    Not really, much like the rest of the news, it depends where you choose to get your opinions from. 😅

    Indeed.

    I expected we would win.

    So certainly not against the odds from where I sit.

    Essendon are pretenders, their gameplan will not hold up in finals. Unbelievable run so far, still beat no-one other than the Giants when they were in a massive form slump.

    That's as good as any win this year with No.22 doing his best to get the Peptides back from the death.

    22 should be sent to the country leagues and never heard or seen from again.

    And clearly they paid off the umpires

    Thoughts on the non selection of a ruck?

    That was bizarre umpiring in the last 5 minutes.

    For example the bombers throwing the ball all night and they pluck one out of nowhere against rivers.

     

    Plus the Kozzie 50 meters - his many more times did that happen but no penalty?

    Thanks to the AFL ring masters and their dodgy fixture that's set up to manufacture preferred outcomes and the finals pecking order.

    The umpires tried to snatch it in the end, but no dice!! 

    GREAT WIN! My takeaways:

    - I think we saw a rebirth for the team against the Lions. Great pressure for the whole game. Intense. Belief.

    - The kids are the future. Disco kicking big goals, McVee’s skills in the wet, Kozzie doing things only he can. Rivers continues to step up. Windsor had another cracker. Great vision and speed. Kolt, love his grit. 

    - WITHOUT Trac and Gawn. No axtual ruck. This is our character. 

    - The bombers are FRAUDS and CHEATS! I’m glad we helped to show them up and help them back down the ladder (although their soft draw will continue to help). 

    - How good was Langdon?

    - How missed was Melksham?? 

    Great night, always love beating these mugs. Only disappointment was not winning by 40+ but I can live that that. 

    HERE WE COME!!!! 🔥💙❤️

    There are some great young kids in this team that are showing up a lot of the older guys. Great for the future.

    I had a great feeling about this one coming in but didn't want to mozz it. Even without Gawn our pressure game has really lifted the last couple of weeks and playing the kids instead of NQR journeyman has given the team a real shot of energy/enthusiasm. Plus Essendon are flakey, they crumble under pressure.

    Dunno how we'll go for the rest of the year but if we keep getting games into the kids, keep giving midfield minutes to Riv and Koz and keep giving Roo more time up forward with Melksham and Fritsch I think we are in decent shape moving forward.

    Sweet win.

    Lost the clearances.

    Lost the tackle count.

    Kick count

    Hit outs 

    Marks

    Handball count

    Free kicks

    Inside 50 s too

    But a sweet sweet sweet win.

    Oliver and Anb really stood tall in the second half.

    Shout out to Disco as well.

    Kozzie nice 100.

    • 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.

      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.
