POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton
Spot on with the highlights! Haha love the Wall of Demons! Looking forward to getting to a few more games to see it in action. Nice, I didn't realise Jack was back next week!

POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton
I 100% agree with this. Everybody wants a big scalp. With nothing to lose, they throw everything at us. That little bit extra turns these games into a genuine tussle. I'd love a quick start. Straight out of the blocks fire.

POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton
Completely agree. My favourite part is that I don't think I've seen us play anywhere near our best yet. I've got no doubt we'll tune into it soon. I reckon our best will be scary. Yeah Max looks gassed. Jacko would have been handy today. But the boys keep at it, and that really has set us apart from the others. We keep finding a way. Great to see, even in the less than glamorous wins. TMac is great to watch for so many reasons.

POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton
Relax, mate. We're coming up against the Doggies and the Lions, who are both flying right now. Chuffed we're 9-0, but that does not mean we rest on those numbers. We've been getting the job done so far, something that has really set us apart from others, and our past selves! But there will need to be a lift and we can't gift the Doggies those clearances.

POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton
I'm obviously happy we got the points, but it felt a little flat. Not even sure who our star was. Probably Tommy in the first half. And some of our smalls kicking goals when we needed, Spargo, Kosi, ANB etc. Will need to lift big time against the Doggies and lions.

McKay should NOT be outmarking anybody right now!!!

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton
This is real workmanlike. Pretty uninspiring half so far. We're not going to get away with this sort of stuff against some of the other teams flying at the moment.

12 months ago, Tommy would have handballed that. Would have missed the mark, turnover to the other guys So good to see his confidence so high.

Tommmyyyy! He's having a hell of a year. It's like the man time travelled.

THAT'S HOLDING THE BALL

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton
Shouldn't be gifting them those sorts of opportunities!

GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton
I love how we've finished, and paced games this year but gee we look a little slow out of the blocks. I hope it's not complacency. The Blues are NOT THAT BAD. They only lacked polish and experience against the Doggies, and we only just scraped past them last year (I know we are a different team know), so they should not be underestimated. Yes we should beat them, yes we're a much better side, but these things often mean nothing. Got to keep up the pressure today.

CHANGES: Rd 08 vs Sydney
With Fritter now free to play, this is what I would do, but I suspect Goody won't drop Melksham.
- Bayley Fritsch cleared of striking

POSTGAME: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
The most important thing is we got the 4 points. Fritter capitalised. Kosi was electric, Salem was solid. But geez not convincing at all. And to top it off, Tomlinson ☹️ Weird to say it after a win, but we have to dust ourselves off after this and bounce back hard next week as the Swans won't be easy. But a win is a win, again, past Demons would have lost this one.

Dees by 61 points, heard it here first.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
Completely agree. He's hard to gauge because he rarely has 'big' games stats wise, but he's smart and can be deadly by foot. He just comes under the spotlight a lot more when everyone else is firing.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
It's great that we're capitalising on Fritter given that we may lose him for a week.

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
Melksham's delivery was sublime

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
KOSSIE! That moment is a shining light in an otherwise dark day! Let's hope that lights a spark!
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
Getting schooled by these spuds. If we don't come out breathing fire and somehow remembering how to play the game, the big ole question mark will be well and truly over our heads again (rightfully).

GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
Oskar poor. I thought our days of persisting with VFL standard players in the firsts was over.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
Melksham's best delivery into the 50 Langdon should have gotten a free Needed that goal
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
Not how I saw BB's first goal (the first one was more like it, and likely a goal anyway), but I'll take it!
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne
Pathetic. Nobody's running. F50 entry (on the few occasions we have found the ball) has been poor. Getting smoked
