Feels like other clubs are much better at identifying talented smalls (that impact games) than us.
 

We have Kosi, yes, but he cost us pick 12 and that’s about all we have (I’m not a huge Chandler fan).

    Elite ball use in finals goes a long way. No Farrell and Houston hurts, let’s see how good Port are.

    Port are looking exceedingly ordinary so far, again…..

    Apart from the Butters kick and Burton finish they’ve done sfa.

    Danger is the most over hyped and over rated footballer in recent times. 

    I mean he’s probably 2-3 years passed his prime?

    The finals paradigm used to be ‘tough, contested footy’, which we aimed to master.

    This game is quick and the team executing well is on top.

    Our preferred style of footy out of date in the regular season and now out of date in the offseason.

    That pass to Georgiadis!
    He missed the shot, but what a pass and lead and mark!

    Yeah? Nah. 
    Pressure still trumps everything.

    Ooooft, I dunno, in my mind prime danger was streaming out of the middle and hitting leading forwards on the chest. He is definitely a player I would say over the last ten years can win games off his efforts.

    But that’s just me

    Nah. 
    Different game. 
    Neither team cares much whether the opposition kicks 100pts - as long as they kick 101pts.

    My tip is Port. The game has to tighten up and i rank Port's defence over Cats.

    8 all australian selections is a fair effort

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road for their 3rd interstate game in 4 weeks as they face a fit and firing Crows at Adelaide Oval. With finals now out of our grasps what are you hoping from the Dees today?

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
