That Kossi bloke is not too bad.


Langdon had five second half possessions with 1 tackle. Went missing big time.

I think that's the problem.

Our lack of quality smalls and theirs being so good really stood out today.

Tom McDonald - Best on Ground

A bit tough I think, I thought he was very competitive and strong in the contest. Pretty good for mature recruit, never played at the level

Henderson also looked comfortable with the pace of the game

Lindsay looks swift and classy! Thought I was watching a Febey ♥️💙

Also gave 2 goals away in the first half through lazy kicks...going backwards no less

I heard the ABC call for the first half and watched mist of the second half.

i think I agree Chandler, Howes and Fritta

should be embarrassed to take the coin for this week and be nervous about next week’s. 
and I think the AFL and their round zero can shove that idea where the sun does not shine.

we did well but not well enough

Fritsch out Turner in, and put May at FF

Chandler out Spargo in

I was at the G and kept a close eye on Fritsch for most of the game.

Whilst he was far from his best and didn't trouble the scorers, I was encouraged by him getting a lot more involved in the sleeves up, second & third effort type stuff, rather than his more typical floating around the fringes waiting for someone to get it to him. 

If he isn't getting points on the board I at least want him putting heat on the opposition defenders so someone else potentially can.

To my eye, he did that job pretty well.

How much credit does Fritsch have in the bank after his Grand Final success?

At what stage can we say that his performances just aren’t worthy of automatic selection?

Carefull....

At times he looked sore and at one stage he couldnt run but in aswer to the question probably by round 4.  Still, who comes in?

I agree

He showed no interest at all getting himself into the game

Fortunately for him, we don't have a replacement

Bowey - impressive all game

Yes Chook, I felt that Bowey was impressive across the game, not necessarily all game - but it was great to see him more active and inventive with his kicking skills, accuracy and tenacity in winning the ball on occasion. He can only put these experiences in the bank, work on these, become (once again) a really good clearing backman. I'd hope that the return of Judd will add to his capacities etc.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
