Three goals in ten minutes then three goals in 110 minutes

Is there a problem here?

It would be intersesting to know what is the most amount of goals we have kicked in a row, in a game this year. It couldn't be more than 3, and that may have only happened once or twice.

I have never been as flat and emotionally detatched form the game as I have this year. It's not just the losses, it's the style of play, the lack of run and confidence.

I haven't felt once in a game this year of having a real sense of momentum. How farked is that? Momentum is just about everything in todays footy.

The first game that I have not been to in twelve years at the G

I live three minutes walk from there and could not be bothered

Maybe I will get a gig in the guts next week showing as much fortitude as the regular squad

Why is Brian Royal so hated? It's not the coach. Its the midfield/or lack of.

Why not?

He really isn't getting great results.

In 2010 we had a great back line...one of the best in the comp. Wellman goes, Royal comes in and it goes downhill. Last year our midfield wasn't awful; we had some good games and some bad games. This year, Royal takes over the midfield coaching role. Now we have NO good games.

My persective at the game was that we did not take advantage of forward 50 entries in the third quarter when we were actually looking dangerous. Blease ran in and tried to kick two when we had free players in our forward 50 and Frawley did once.

But this didnt cause the blow out in the last quarter which seemed totally different to the rest of the game.

Yep, I agree. The end of the 2nd quarter and the 3rd quarter were frustrating. We had so many opportunities and we had the ball locked in our forward 50 for what seemed like an eternity without being able to kick a goal.

How about being 14pts down at 3 quarter time and going on to lose by 10 goals? Why do we just drop our heads and let the other team run away with it EVERY SINGLE WEEK? It does my head in.

Fitness.

I think it's more mental, the Ineviability of it all starts kicking in. When you know you are going to lose no matte what you do, once they let a goal or 2 slip in the last quarter they give up.

I think the playing group need to take some responsibility for this bullsh#t that happens once an opposition has kicked 2 goals in a row. I'd love to see our stats once a team gets a run on against us. It's outrageously bad. I'm tired of watching press releases with blokes trying to explain why they didn't show up for a quarter every week.

Surely we instigate a team rule that throws players behind the ball or clogs the game up to stop the demoralizing loses. It helps nobody.

Our kicking for goal just wasn't there, we had enough chances to kick a big score today, we missed heaps of goals on the run from inside 50. If only Clark was a little better at his set shots but more time as a key forward and that will come. Dunn hardly looked like scoring and Green was off, we really need more goals from midfielders such as Moloney, Trengove and Jones who have all kicked good goals at important times on their day but just didn't contribute enough

So what your saying is that we should make BR the next forward coach yes?

Goalkicking midfielders are worth their weight in gold and we have close to none. It is why I couldn't give a stuff if Moloney stays or goes and why I am so disappointed in Sylvia as he has the potential but only does it a couple of times a year.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
