    Why isn't it umpire descent by Battle? Screaming swear word at the umpire after a clear free kick.

    And expected score

    Neither of these forward lines are drastically better or worse than ours. Just goes to show it’s not as  important to have superstars in your forward line.

    Yes it is very depressing that they have bounced back so quickly…

    They play an exciting game. However, Sydney are deplorable defensively. There is no way we give them this much space. Maybe we get burnt on turnover here and there but this game is heavily on the outside so you cannot compare.
     

    If we try to play this game style , like Sydney are , yes we will get toast. But this is not our game style so I’d just hold your horses. Remember Port beat them in finals last year when the Hawks were hot. Port play a similar style of footy as the Dees.

    Every year, people jump to conclusions based on results in the first round of the (long) season.

    Making a call before half-time of the first and only game to be played is taking it to a new level.

    Meek will go close to AA. 

    Little known secret - Max started mentoring him last year just when Meek started dominating games. 

    Our GOAT

    On another note, hawthorn will absolutely slice us up...and most teams tbh if they play like this. Fast, creative, tough, so skilful and then the 3 big rock interceptors. I was hoping they'd slide back to reality but right now they look like they've gone to another level entirely 

    Sydney on the other hand seem significantly weaker than last year. No Errol makes a huge difference.

    Did you hate how Jeff Farmer got the nickname before he played a game?

    I didn’t know that. Thought he got the nickname after he establishing himself

    How did he get his nickname?

    A recruiter (might have been ours) saw him play and reported that "This kid is a wizard".  The name stuck.

    • 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.
