    No, pagan played 143 games for North and South Melbourne. That was a brain fade by BT referring to Fagan as Pagan…

    On the back of Daisy Thomas being referring to as Daisy Pearce at the start of the game

    Ashcroft has been impressive. Andrews was good when the Swans were trying to play early. But as others have said, Neale is likely to get the Norm Smith.

    Omg do u think BT could get ANYTHING right in his commentary. 

    He is like the weather reporters who say the wrong thing but still has a job. Unbelievable. 

    At  least he has stopped banging on about the wind and players aiming for the left post on every shot ..

    That would have gone down well. Was that BT? Also Daisy hasn't been on 7 all year

    “He never plays outside his capabilities.” These are the insights that have me still watching the game. 🤣

    I’d be amazed if someone ever played outside of what they were capable of 😁

    For Sydney to lose like this again tells me it’s an MCG thing. They can clog up their home ground and then keep contesting it forward. Sydney in this game clogged up the middle but left a Brisbane player or two last on defensive line and also offensive line. Same as Geelong and GWS last few weeks just kept kicking it to Starcevic. No numbers running forward all getting ready to defend midfield.

    Dang - how the hell did you end up with us sad sacks then? 🙃

    I've been watching the second half and getting that unnerving sense that this Brisbane side is player-by-player that little bit bigger and stronger than their opponents all over the ground.

    Hopefully that's just a reflection of Sydney's wilting performance because with even more goid F-S prospects coming and ongoing academy benefits, their list has plenty of renewal coming.

    Yep - despite them saying the ground is almost as big as the mcg now... it still is a postage stamp. The 50 (if it is legitimate these days) is still so close the smaller centre square. That ground and kardinia park belong in 16 a side vfa... they're not compatible with modern footy

    Ashcroft making a good run at it.

    He's the player they missed last year especially in those finals

    Amazing from the Lions to win the flag, given their poor start to the year and that they were down by 44 points against the Giants only 2 weeks ago.

    Delighted to see Conor McKenna get to play. No pressure on him in this game. He is the second player to do the double - Gaelic Football and Aussie Rules.

    • 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.
