We’re evolving. First year players in Lindsay and Langford start on the wings with Langdon on the interchange…since when?

Lindsay played pretty much the entire game on the Warne Stand side…the new Langdon.

Don’t look at Petty’s low disposal count as a negative, he worked Sydney’s best interceptor in McCartin over all day, a selfless game.

Enjoy a marvelous win all.

    That’s a great team win, still building and still room for improvement but we’re heading in the right direction

    HUGE.

    In reality a demolition job. Should have been 80-100, but for our wasted chances and the swans’ accuracy.

    But it’s all good (mostly - please keep on practicing goalkicking lol) because it’s the best we’ve looked all year I reckon. Bowza, Salo, Clarry, KOZ, so good. I’m missing plenty because guys like Disco were huge out back. Langdon kept on running. Max was important as always.

    We’re in it! Big win next week and we square the ledger, then work towards getting stuck into the pies and building on this momentum, confidence and the genuine happiness they are showing out there. Upwards trajectory continues.

    Go Dees ❤️💙

    Terrific Claz game, and vintage Salo, almost had a stroke when I saw him in the first centre bounce

    Need to find a proper partner in crime for Petty, JVR come on down?

    Sydney is very lucky that wasn't a 20+ goal belting. They were equally as bad as we were good

    Lindsey was absolutely cooked by the last, Works bloody hard and uses it superbly. GUN!

    Windsor and Langford just as exciting!

    Kozzy could've kicked 8+ today. Unreal performance

    Running out of superlatives for Max. Career high tackles today. Keeps finding ways to raise the bar. AJ provided solid relief and set up at least 2/3 goals with clever little tap ons as well.

    Another week of the super sub! Two goals for Sharp in that final quarter.

    Only negatives are that Lever looked rusty on return and Spargo looked pretty ordinary before he was subbed.

    Stats wise he may have had a quiet game but AJ’s pressure and getting a hand to the ball in our f50 resulted in 3 to 4 goals today. Does the dirty work well, just needs to polish other areas

    Tracc’s mum saying “love you, [censored] great win” was gold

    Tracc was being interviewed on fox and Oliver came up and game him a big wet one then Tracc hugged him. Was awesome to see the close bond

    WE ARE BACK (I think).

    GO DEES.

    Fantastic win! I reckon that was our best performance since the time we played Sydney in early 2023. I could tell from the very beginning that we were on. Our pressure was through the roof and we moved the ball with speed and dare. I was worried that our inaccuracy early would hurt us but the exact opposite happened.

    Pickett is a [censored] machine. He's already had two of the best games from a small forward that we've seen this year. Oliver looked as good as he has in two years. He's rediscovered his confidence.

    Also a special shout out to Sharp. He played the ultimate sub game. He had an impact as soon as he came on the field.

    It's always satisfying beating up Sydney like that given all the trouble they used to cause 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.

      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.
