The graphics don't even match up with the votes being read out?

Not a great start, considering that highlights package looked like it was played at about 8 frames per second.

Apparently last night at the dogs b&f, after they just started, it showed up on the screen who won.

    It would be handy if the CEO knew the premiership full forward's number I would have thought.

    Thank you Gus for calling out Pert completely botching BB's number.

    How would anyone remotely connected to the club not know that he's number 50?

    I was more excited about Brayshaw than Hogan when they come to the club.
    Kid was a fearless beast from the get go.

    How old is Harold Ball????

    I don't understand your question. Harold's son Ian accrepted the award on his dad's behalf. 
    I've known Ian for more than 40 years.
    He rarely misses a game, be it in Vic or interstate.I had no idea he is the son of Harold.
    Ian is 70ish. His dad would have passed away some years ago.

    My bad, I thought it was the man himself and he was 104!

    Just looking over the life members stuff - 45 games and 73 goals was a decent enough return from BBB I think.  And for all the talk about cultural issues at the club, guys like Ben should be celebrated even more for what I understand he bought in that regard as well.

    His contribution to our 21 premership should never be underrated IMHO.

    Nah, make Gus CEO

    Actually a good call. Bring PJ back in to mentor Gus for 2-3 years. Gus goes to CEO, PJ goes to President.

    • 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.
