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: 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.
