Nice Lindsay aerial contest down back there and not sure it was his fault Tommy no skills hammering a handball back at him. He’s ticked a few boxes today

    Some clear deficiencies, but I am not too hassled by the score. Our general play is looking better  as the game extends.

    Salem and Windsor growing, Langford ok.

    Johnson looking to have established his spot as our 2nd big body forward.

    Fritsch a worry.

    lol, Claz. This is great to see him hitting the scoreboard. But he shouldn’t. Be leading our goalkicking…

    Our players still look scared to give away sling tackle free kicks/suspensions.

    Guys, when it comes to the real stuff just dump them.

    Why not?

    He is playing an aggressive centre mid role, regularly being the one to drift to the front of the storage, and has rested in the forward pocket.

    3 goals in 3 quarters should be leading every clubs goal kicking. We don't have Charlie Curnow running round out there

    Genuinely, there's been enough to be relatively pleased with today. Bit of a hiding to nothing match. Lindsay looks good

    It was great however his two long kicks into the forward line didn’t favour our forwards at all.

    Yeah he hasn't been completely polished but I reckon his positives have outweighed his negatives today.

    Lol, a part of me is keeping an eye out for Austin Wonaeamirri.

    Holy [censored] I think I got the spelling right!

    Relax, we got this.

    Whatever happens from here midfield stoppage work, Oliver’s work rate, Max being Max, glimpses of some dash off half back, more forward handball, tackling pressure against a side I rate a lot more than others on here are positives

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • 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.  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. 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.

    • 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.
