Game Day Thread

Am not impressed with effort, skill level or anything about our performance to be honest, but at the same time, I think some of you are getting a little carried away. Just last game you would have been singing our praises, a little perspective required.

That's the point though... We know the young blokes will be up and down but we back them and stand by them cos the endeavor is there and the footy knowledge is coming, but guys like Bruce, Miller, and even Green the last 2 weeks, should be leading the way.

 

We are still in with a chance of another spoon at this rate, only one win in the last 8 games. Aand st kilda next week.

Mark my words.

Tigers and Crows will overtake us, maybe even Eagles.

We will finish bottom 2 this year again no worries.

 

How many times are we going to put ourselves under pressure in the Backline? Why would you kick the ball backwards to a player under pressure on the goal line. This is one of the worst performances I've seen from a Melbourne side for 10 years, we are being humiliated. The players can't hold their feet, Watts being one and he looks like he is going to be a fringe player at best he just can't get rid of the ball quickly enough he has all the awareness of Bell and is one of the most disappointing number one draft picks I have ever seen. I've been patient with him but no more he has to show something but so far there is nothing that makes me excited.

Jones has to learn, preferably at Casey, that you don't have to take the hard option every time and you can run forward with the ball or at least pass it off before you get tackled. We have also shown that if Jamar gets beaten we are in big trouble.

Davey, Beamer, Green, Morton, Bruce, Miller it's time to step up or wear the tag of soft under pressure deservedly.

Personally if I was coaching I would have kept them on the ground at half time and said one thing, think about your pathetic effort in the first half all of you. That would be embarrassing to them as they were laughed at by the Crows fans. It might be a message well learnt.

Even at half time I'm sure they'd find ways to turn it over :rolleyes:

Probably, but as the clearances show they only get it 4 out of every 25 times.

 

Is it just me or is Dwayne Russell the commentator such a moron 'we have a game again!' sheesh


Rivers not even a shadow of his former self.

Footballs equivelant to a one hit wonder. ( one season wonder)

lol we're making Adelaide actually look like a good team.

Pat Garret and Billy the Kid has a sensational cast: James Coburn, Kris Kristofferson, Richard Jaeckel, Katy Jurado, Chill Wills, Barry Sullivan, Jason Robards, Bob Dylan, R.G. Armstrong, John Beck, Matt Clark, Jack Elam, Paul Fix, L.Q. Jones, Slim Pickens, Charles Martin Smith, Harry Dean Stanton, Rutanya Alda, Elisha Cook Jr., Dub Taylor, Bruce Dern.


DEES BOOT THE LAST 3!

We're 33 points down...

Edited by wisedog

Back to 33 points :D

Davey continues to prove why he is just not up to scratch to be out captain. We cannot have a captain that can't shake a tag. Continues to go missing when we need it, and has brain snaps too often.

"Trengove does the ruckwork for Melbourne"

:blink:


Good goal!

Damn it, my stream is dead.

Anyone have a link to a stream for the game?

 

might just tune out til the 3rd quarter when we play well for 20 mins before eventually losing the same way again...

hmmmmm......

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
