Game Day Melb v Richmond

Recommended Posts


Neeld massively outcoached today.

On paper a pretty even game considering the changes, yet stubborn Mark sticks with a losing structure once again.

We just have no direction or idea of what to do, and you would think we'd be starting to show some sense of that by this stage of the season.

I'm not saying Neeld will fail as a coach, but so far he's learning from mistakes rather than success.

Be hard to pick "best players" today. No stand outs for Dees whatsoever.

I was thinking the same thing. Riewoldt has only kicked 1, which would usually indicate Frawley had been great, but he's sprayed about 5 other shots.

Jones is always good value. Watts has been decent, but his disposal has not been as efficient today as it has been this season. Many players have put in shockers. I haven't seen Blease for a while...

Another insipid performance and loss coming up. Neeld will need a much better 2013 otherwise I reckon his career as a senior coach will be brief.

Melbourne players have no passion. If they had 10% of what the supporters have we will see a much better game. Why are they kicking backwards, hand balling to someone standing two feet from them. What are the coaches doing there. Very frustrating to watch. Too slow and too sloppy.

Dunn in the backline just isnt going to work. he doesnt play accountable on man footy - he rarely even knows where his opponent is.

Let be honest here. I can only really see Jonesy, Clark, Jamar, Howe and Sylvia as required players at this stage. Moloney bet to break it open today.

Too many maybes, too many players that just seem to be list cloggers.

Does anyone think Trengove would be in the side if he wasnt captain?

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
