Hard to see th Dees winning a game this year. Shameful. I'm dubious about Neeld and Craig.

 
 

I'm no idiot but I just do not understand the inconsistencies with HTB decisions these days.


So mitchell plays on has prior opp gets grabbed amazing

Mitchell just scored a touchdown....play on!!
 

Beautiful pass from McDonald... hit that Hawks player right on the chest directly in front.

No good teaching game plans, direction of play, how to negate etc etc etc if we dont get the pill. And when we do get it, who can the whole club actually rely on, to deliver it in some positive manner to a team mate? Our disposal skills are the worst I have ever seen at AFL/VFL in over 40 years. Our ability to gut run are actually non existent. We need a shrink to get into our players minds to activate them. They look so lazy it hurts.


Surely the skills of Watts and Jurrah cant go astray amongst this lot!

This [censored] me off. He's taking his kick and Buddy hacks his arm as he's dropping it. Buddy was standing behind him. WTF?

I wonder what improvement Neeld will find in this flogging.

Looks like the team has no confidence in themselves, the coach or the game plan. No energy out there, no passion, no comradery. We look hopeless

This is as bad as I gets.

Yep, let's rest rioli, hodge, Gibson, turn it on for 20 minutes and then coast. This establishment is spiritless .

The McDonald curse.

Their skills aren't the problem, it's their men running off them that causes the issue and neither of them can tackle or get a hard ball. I don't think either of them would have helped us tonight in their current form.

Simply put, how can other teams get so much cheap ball. Meanwhile whenever we have it, there are no options and we rely on someone pulling in a big pack mark or outworking a couple of opposition players at once, which is completely unsustainable.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
