Ironically its always funny watching Melbourne supporters on here giving shade to the likes of Brisbane and Collingwood whilst our very own club rots away down the bottom.

I enjoy watching Collingwood play and would dream to have the game style they have. It's fun, exciting and brings their supporters through the gates.

I legitimately have more excitement in watching Casey play this weekend over our snooze fest AFL club.

exactly we should win against gws, best casey team since the gf maybe even better

    With the Pies it is pretty simple.

    About 8 - 10 very skilled ball handlers.

    The best player in the game. A brother also an excellent player.

    More AFL experience than any other side.

    Total buy in and selflessness by the players.

    Pace to burn.

    Reasonable goal kicking skill.

    Well coached.

    Ability to recruit players from other clubs.

    To a lesser extent, huge support which probably leads to favorable umpiring on nearly every occasion. Can you see the 78m penalty being given against the Pies or the soft free to McStay for a goal, or the ridiculous DeGoey free where he dropped an opponent not in play, all paid at crucial times. A bunch of mates in the MRO and Tribunal also helps.

    The Pies aren’t that fast they just move the ball quickly. Constant movement forward then if they cough it up they get back and force the opponent down the line. They work incredibly hard.

    It’s funny isn’t it - even if we leave the Brayshaw stuff out of the conversation I’ve only ever viewed him as a sniper and yet he’s lauded as tough

    He's just an absolute P.O.S. thug

    Needs to be run through. ( twice)

    Usually the Good Friday game involving North is a yawn fest but this one could be a good watch.

    Carlton's season definitely on the line. Win today and they may still scrape into the final 8. Lose and Voss, like Goodwin is gone

    Not sure if that’s more of a dig at North or Melbourne.

    We‘re the only team North can beat.

    I know most hate the ground but the closed roof is making for great television viewing.

    Time they put some fixed cameras in the roofing gantry to increase the number of camera angles.

    Watching Kayo their goal replays seem to be repetitive in coverage. Something they could work on but it does look good in 4K

    The roof’s fantastic for TV.

    However it should be open for warm early season nights and overcast winter days. Absolutely unbearable and non temperature controlled when it’s mid 20’s plus.

    Have North ever played in one of these Good Friday games and not been belted?

    Yeah listening to it on the radio & the boundary rider was saying how hot it is & stuffy. It's a big crowd to so all those bodies in there won't help

    West coast any chance tonight or am I just hoping?

    You want West Coast to win because you hate Essendon?

    Or you want West Coast to win because we’ll be the only team to be winless and hence the microscope will be fair and square on the club?

    A small chance IMO.. Aside from round 1, West Coast will play their better games at Optus.

    Man North plays dumb sometimes. Like why do they just keep jumping on the ball. They've been pinged like 5 times.

    Norths victory over us really doesn’t bode for us winning a game any time soon. We all thought Norf had turned the corner and were going to not be easy beats was perhaps a distraction from how far we have really fallen.

    • 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.
