I think you intended to mention Hore, not Howe . Hore Ā was bloody good, I rate himĀ 

Tholstrup- his best game


Tholstrup - his best game

Very tough on Billings - 21 disposals going at 90% is a very good game.

Good to see him back.

Tough readjustment last week but turned up today.

Well done.

Ā 

Tholstrup - not there yet (his decision making and reaction time isn't fast enough yet)

Disco - no obvious weakness

Kozzie - shouldn't have played

Billings - experienced shouldn't fumble

Viney - legend of club

kozy puts in some average onesĀ  Ā hopefully a big one next weekĀ  How good to beat the filth

By now Goodwin should now that if Kozzy is quiet in the first half he must start in the midfield ASAP, touching the leather invigorates Kozzy.

Tholstrup - robbed of goal.

Can we get rid of that pathetic arc?

Once again it robs us of a certain goal.

Ā 

I would say Tholstrup - learning pretty fast

For once it didn't cost us a game though. Ā  Ā  Ā I am sure there are stats somewhere that show how many calls have gone for and against certain teams. Ā  Cost us the final v Carlton and other games I cannot specify.

Equivalent to telling the time with a two bob watch.Ā

That bloody arc has cost us games. I hate it. Don’t care if an umpire makes a bad decision, part of the game.

On this occasion though I think it was the goal umpire that stole it from him.

Exactly what he was scouted for.Ā Ā 


Fritsch - a leisurely frolic

LOL - very apt description

Goal umpire called it a point, so without the arc it would still have been a point.

Kolt worked his way into.

Ā 

If Kolt can fix up his kicking, he’ll become our best young player very quickly. Runs to the right spots, has pace and loves the contest.

Yes.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.Ā  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer.Ā A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • 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.Ā

  • 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.
