Melksham - our only winner

Petracca - disposal was amateurish

Gawn - had negligible influence

Viney - tried but limited

Pickett - great last quarter

Bowey - tried but overwhelmed

Rivers - loose and disinterested

Turner - strong first half

Langford - needed longer break

Oliver - just a shadow

Chandler - irrelevant and uninvolved

Fritsch - seemingly without heart

Sparrow - another nothing game

McVee - little influence again

Petty - was actually missed

Langdon - not a tagger

Tholstrup - a year away

May - career is fading

Sharp - little to offer

Salem - regularly slowed momentum

Jefferson - two years away

Howes - unsighted before injury

Lindsay - shown no growth

 

Umpires - doing HQs job

 

You’ve given two players a positive review (of sorts) and yet we had two players less for most of the game and went down by four goals. Genuinely clueless assessments

Ridiculous comment.

We all know, but you, we were lucky not to lose by 15 goals.

Present your 3 word analysis to show me where I misjudged


Everyone to their own opinion But we had a miserably poor 1st quarter and looked like we would go down by 60+ points, we hit the post twice and Milkshake missed at least two that he would normally swallow and we went down by 19 points to a top 8 side that was aided and abetted by the umpiring fraternity. Plus we were two down.????

Yes I think you are right. Every week this thread gets more emotional and worse. It's more of an insight into the posters fragility than a reflection. It used to be quite interesting.

Well if I were paid more to produce this thread each week then perhaps I’d present more positive reviews.

Sure:

Fritsch - tackles and goals

Rivers - 27 possessions. Disinterested?

Sharp - (sub) provided some spark

Langford - continues to grow

Bowey - beat direct opponent

Jefferson - started slowly. Glimpses

Salem

Lever

Oliver

Some big stars that no longer are.

Sparrow never was.

Tracca plays some iffy games.

Petty not a fwd. Fritta comes and goes so apart from Melksham turning up we don't have a fwd line.

This team is unrecognisable to the one that won a flag. It's interesting because there are still quite a few of them still there. At least a dozen. And they're not all old.

Come on you can do better than that. "Money improves reviews"

I agree Joe, Jefferson was poor 2 years away! That's never. It's time to move on from him he is not a AFL talent. I have said to play him for a number of games. However there was zero in that game to show him as a needed player.

Bluey- Personally ashamed to be associated with this lilly livered group.

He should be careful. That can result in haemorrhoids!

Trying to blame umpires for this is so one-eyed we should be sponsored by the Fred Hollows Foundation.

  • 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.
