Yep luck plays a part no doubt but we had the ball in our hands with under a minute to go and we should have been able to milk the clock and not turn it into a 50/50 kick which then opens the door.

Tonight was true endorsement of Vossy’s ‘next man up’ mantra! Stoker in, Setterfield in, Martín In…..play your role.

Biggest negative was our disposal by foot - kicking to advantage by the Demons vs kicking to a contest or a disadvantage by the Blues

Have never been a Setterfield fan because of his poor kicking under pressure but his game on Oliver showed me that he does have something to offer in the guts - more so than Dow anyway - still not sold on him as a winger though

Interesting figures…..
Stevic -- 14 frees to 5 Melbourne's way.
The other two umps paid it 9-8.
Goals with Stevic awarding free kicks: Melbourne: 5 - Carlton 1.

Cannot question the effort tonight, gutsy in so many ways. Owned the last quarter, just couldn't ice it.
Sometimes the yearn after a loss like that can develop a new level of resolve. At least the ball is still in our court.
And we did manage to keep out % above WBs.

I have just watched the replay. Leaving aside problems caused by poor foot skills and an inability to control use of the ball at the end of quarters, the real problem is the stress put on our midfielders by having to play to a losing ruck match after match.
What a difference it would have made tonight if we had had a tall, mobile ruckman who was able to give our mids a better than even chance of getting first use of the ball.
If we have to go into next season with Pittonet as our main ruckman then we are almost certain to have the same inconsistent results during 2023 as we have had this year.

Heck even Martin lasted 4 qtrs AND contributed goals.
Doc in the guts at the CB's was the move I wanted to see and I thought he was very good in there.
