I've seen a fair bit of commentary on Demonland that says Fritta can't play a defensive role.

When we beat Collingwood in 2023 King's Birthday, he played the Melksham defensive role on Moore and kicked 3, and was the most dominant forward on the ground.

That should be the model for his role today.

    [censored] it all. I was up ‘til 1am making a ‘We Love You Claz’ sign and I’ve bloody left it at home. I even bought a big canvas on a frame last night after banner-making and lugged the stoopid thing home on two trains and a bus (lightweight but unwieldy), got more red and blue poster paint on my kitchen table and my clothes than on the canvas and now I’ve gone and left it at home. Damn.

    Saw an insta post about the “wizards”.

    Sorry, but Watson is not a pimple on Jeff Farmers butt cheek in comparison.

    To all the midfielders including Kozzie, please provide some protection to Max Gawn, because Hawthorn are going to crash into him. I believe we can win today even without Melksham and Viney.

    It's time for a good game from Kolt. Another low contribution game tomorrow and he forfeits his spot.

    sums up being a melbourne fan

    Looking forward to heading in soon for today’s match, as long as we have a real go I’ll be happy….Hawks are a talented side with a lot of weapons that move the ball really quickly, not an easy assignment but hopefully we can stay with them.

    Howesy kept out of Casey team as a carryover player. AJ and Bill both playing for Casey.

    aj looks wobbly

    A lot more people posting on game day thread this week.

    Three wins has renewed our confidence.

    But it will be a tough game and likely if we win,a season definer.

    Hopefully Jvr goes berserk and even kicks a pile of goals.

    Here's hoping.

    21 degrees today. Where else would you rather be than sitting in the Colosseum.

    Not confident but today will give us an indication of where we are at.

    Viney a very massive loss though.

    He's been under the pump, but I can't see claz crying.

    Damn auto correct!


     

    Tbh i think we'll be lucky to get within 5/6 goals of the Sqawkers. Could be wrong. Think we'll actually miss Viney shutting down someone today. Someone else will need to do that role. Too many not giving Hawthorn due credit imho

    Dees need to be awake early . Don't want to get jumped as that's catchup footy.... tiring and all too often futile.

    Like to see Fritter get jiggy. Be handy should Clarry have a blinder to silence his 'fan club' in the media. Roo needs to hang on to a few and find the sticks otherwise I'm not sure why he's back in tttt.

    Just got to make a fist of it Dees.

    Go us !!

    • 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.
