What a strange match, but Ill happily take 8 points down @ half time.

Games against Richmond are often strange. Remember the 7 point loss last year? I came out of that laughing - I had nfi what I had just seen, but it wasn't short of a spectacle.

The lads tried their guts out in that quarter. We're in the contest at half time. Will gladly take that.

Glad to see some contested marks from the Demons. It has seemed for years that we're no good at this aspect of the game.

I really don't know where this idea (pushed by a few on here) that Sylvia is a bogan comes from as he just acquitted himself very well on Fox Footy... very well spoken and intelligent well considered comments.

I'm very impressed with Davey so far.

Watts has also been very good. Trengove needs to lift. Jamar needs to think before he disposes of the footy. Bate's been alright. Howe's been good. If Clark hadn't had some crucial brain fades in the first quarter he'd be close to our best.

I agree with you, but I think it comes from some of his off field behaviour...

not just that i was at dees v lions round 1 and from 3 quarter time onwards sylvia was sitting in jim stynes room with a chick on his lap couldnt give a crap about the game i know some of us supporters can switch off but he gets paid by MFC to support his team mates when he is not playing, i thought it was really poor form from him

Jealousy?

Just over use of the ball is killing us, twice we were streaming forward and one extra handball turns it over. I'm liking the intent, just execution is lacking, but we're a big chance to win this, probably just need captain Jack T to set up a bit.

Also two very poor misses at the end by Stef and Mitch.

Smart and strong play from Clark... nice set up for Sellar to goal.

Posted

Sellar....geez alright, come on dees .....Howe rackin up the possies...

Posted

Much better. But then that's what happens against lesser teams.

Morton and Bate aren't up to it...

Posted

How do our defenders constantly allow their forwards so much room?

Posted

morton needs to go he is a liability

Half the team needs to go... I'm sorry, but putting in an effort for 5 minutes each quarter is not acceptable.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.
