Great mark Fritta. Also possibly the best quarter I've ever seen Chandler play.

That Spargo kick 😘.

Curtis is a worry. We haven't got a great match up for him.

    Spanked in the middle, spanked on the outside, 6 points in front. 

    I'll take it.

    Soft free to JVR. I’d be fuming the other way

    Happened right in front of me. Clear free. Defender knew it straight away and threw his hands up in guilt.

    Lucky North didn’t capitalise early in the qtr, Chin, Oliver, Rooter started well. 
    things changed towards the end of the qtr, we seemed to take the game on more which is lovely to see.

    Having Spargo and Salem deliver the ball inside 50 helps. Doesn't happen enough at the MCG.

    Two sitters missed in the past three minutes 🤬

    Interesting read in the Casey thread about our atrocious kicking for goal there today too.

    A couple of people saying that there's no structured goal kicking at as part of training.

    Just players having pings at goal in their own time.

    A little bewildering if true.

    Players with one disposal or less: Turner, Lever, Howes, and Jefferson with zero.

    Really missing McVee and Windsor (amongst others of course).

    That could have been a catastrophic 3 way injury to Fritta, Jeffo and Roo!

    dodged a bullet.

    Mistakes, poor pressure and woeful kicking for goal and we still finished the quarter ahead. 

    Only need a 5% lift and we’ll blow this out of the water.

    Rivers, Petracca, Gawn, Langdon all having shocking games. Four elite players who could turn up and give us a huge boost.

    JVR misses a chest mark then missed one from 25m?

    Terrible. He got a great block from a teammate.

    Jefferson is like the baby of Watts and Weideman. Not great.

    Looks hurt here, hope he's ok, but honestly subbing him out wouldn't be there worst.

    Don't worry Pickett will kiss it better...

    Luckily the umpires are favouring us

    Trac one contested touch and terrible kicking

    We have plenty of improvement to come!

    Just in case anyone forgot why Spargo is in the team and why we’ve missed him and someone like him, that pass into 50 to Langdon (?) is perfect evidence. 

    Lowers the eyes, skilled, smart.

    Nice pass by Salo at the end, too.

    Better end to the game hopefully we run off from that. Nice to see Fritter on the board, too. 

    Let’s go!!! 🔥

    Gawn in for a hard days work with Xerri. Becoming a great ruckman and the next generation. Who will win? Love it

    What was the reason for the First Quarter being so long, i can only follow scores on here today?

    Yes but both take too long to get the ball moving. But agree  position kicks into F50 help

    • 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.
