I don't think our performance last week was as bad as Essendon's right now against Adelaide.

A little perspective maybe..?

I don't feel as bad about it but it was still pretty putrid. The best bit is listening to Lloyd have a cry about it.

Adelaide at AAMI are a totally different beast. Since they've joined the competition they've won 65% of their AAMI matches and 39% elsewhere.

Theyve played 104% of games?

Using far too much handball terribly just like we did

Dont fool yourself as we were beaten badly last week

This year the scoreboard is the least of our priorities

playing competivley with the goal to be more consistent at it is what this year is about

Good football teams dont get smashed like what the Crows did to us or the Bombers

Do you not think has something to do with the pressure Adelaide are applying and the options they are leaving to the opposition by virtue of the way they set up..?

Young football teams DO get pumped like we did, from time to time.

All comes down to how we perform against Essendon. They will come out absolutely pumped but we've seen in the form line that we can beat them. It's sad I'm writing off the saints game already, but the bombers game is a huge opportunity we need to take.

They've won 65% of games at AAMI - 65 games won for every 100 played

They've won 39% of games not played at AAMI - 39 games won for every 100 played

It's about 52% overall

The adelaide of the last two weeks is substantially different to that of the first 12 and they will beat a few more teams before the year is out. Melbourne's performance last week, particularly the first half was abysmal- no questions, however people will soon realise that Adelaide aren't as bad as the start of the year indicated.

Comparing our game to essendons game against the Crows is just making an excuse (again)

Our Game against adelaide totally stunk and that is the only way to describe it. At 1/4 time-Game over. Shite effort.

It was shite, but the performance of the bombers also provides some perspective for all the panic merhcants.

Personally, I didn't enjoy our match against Adelaide, but I'm content with the outcome.

Can't agree with that. Not all the Team is Young-we have many senior players in our current side.

Opposition sides all have young players too .

Our Team attitude is not right-10 years of losing on the road & you are content?

Maybe the players are like that because they know they can get away with it. "oh the supporters won't mind-they are content"

Interesting thought that....

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
