You know who would be good today?

Miller. :D

Or Dunn for that matter. :D

 

let try something different... put rivers or someone else in the FL...

go Skulls..( still not a foward kicking a goal)

 

Scully makes up for an easy miss, with a good goal..

Playing horribly,, amazed were still in this match

PJ.. what a joke... get rid of him


Can you tell Watts' starting position? Half forward?

Sounds to me like he's playing miles out of the forward line. On the times he takes a grab (and don't the callers get excited) you always hear he's 2 kicks from goal.

Frawley? Or do we need him in defence?

PJ.. what a joke... get rid of him

I'm his biggest supporter. And even I say he's cooked here. This is exactly when he could have shown what he's worth. Not that he's had a huge amount of opportunity. But against this mob? He SHOULD have taken some sort of grab by now.

That Rosa goal... proof.

We don't want this.

We're lucky to even be close. We're done.

 

Gonna need a massive effort to come back from here. 2 goals in a low scoring game is a problem

3/4 time, and we're 2 goals down.

Those first two to Kennedy are looking a bit nasty now, aren't they?

Moloney, Bruce, Garland, McKenzie, Frawley, Rivers, Jamar, and especially Grimes and JMac have been very good.

But we have a LOT of passengers.

Bennell, PJ, and particularly Sylvia have been not so good. In general though, our forward line are a mess. There's ok names in there, who are all doing enough (Green, Watts, Hughes all showing a bit here and there).... but no-one good enough to take the game by the scruff of the neck.

Bate exempt cos of his injury. Also, he's somehow playing ok.

The difference between this team and the one we've liked watching this year is actually the midfield. Scully and Trengove aren't doing as much as in previous weeks, which is completely understandable.

Not done, we haven't even started! Backs are doing well, but under the hammer the whole day.

Watts has been playing between the 50s - started on Glass in the f50 early, but Bails moved him quickly for no reason.. a shocking coaching performance from Bailey today.

we look tired.

Edited by DemonDan...

LeCras will kick this second attempt and does...

We are a rabble.

Worst we've looked since the Hawks game. And we're not a HUGE amount ahead of that.


15 minutes to go here. We need to kick 4 straight.

We're done.

What a humiliating loss.

What an appalling game of footy. That's the worst part. We weren't outmuscled, or outplayed...

We were just shitter than a REALLY [censored] team.

15.21 kicked for the game.

Amateur hour.


Embarrassing. Our 'senior' players have let us down so badly today.

No run out of the backline. Davey had to of been played off half back in that second half.

 

Bate has been atrocious this quarter, pity, he's been ok up to now

Give him a break. He's been one of our best today, and that's with a bung ankle. Him and Green are just about our only forwards. As an aside, how clean are Watts' hands? It's a shame he's got a bit of Bruce about his kicking action. I hope that was just nerves, but I'm a little worried about that.

north bulldogs WC,,, losslossloss.. something is not working.... they need to do some big changes...

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
