Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Have to give credit to the Lions though, they did play well.
stuie 7,374 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Have to give credit to the Lions though, they did play well. No credit for Moloney? Not exactly down hill skiing when you perform against the 2nd place side on their homeground...
Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 No credit for Moloney? Not exactly down hill skiing when you perform against the 2nd place side on their homeground... I try not to think about how well Moloney is playing, it's too depressing that he isn't doing it for us
Dr. Gonzo 24,468 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 And the drugs have worn off............nnnnnnnnnnnnnnow! The come down is harsh. That was brilliant by the Lions, Essendon turned up as though they just expected to win, Lions would have none of that and hit them hard from the first bounce. Hurley subbed off concussed within 10 minutes, another player copped a big charge from behind, Brown slammed into someone. This is what I want from the Demons tomorrow, you don't have to be the most skilled side but if you hit them harder than they hit you you're always in with a chance.

Merrett ought to get suspended for his sling tackle on Hurley (edit: based on Trengove's suspension a few years back, anyway). Clarke ought to get suspended for his charge of Kavanagh. This is similar to the reaction to Jetta's suspension a couple of weeks ago - some people view that as the type of aggression/intent we need to show, others view it as a 'cheap shot' and don't like it.
Sir Why You Little 37,450 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 "Can't talk...Coming down" Top effort by the Bears. I wonder if the MFC could play like that? Do they want Neeld? Brisbane obviously want Voss to continue, they were stiff last week. Essendrug back in form. Great.
Wadda We Sing 10,685 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Norf very close last night....is a weekend of upsets brewing???
stuie 7,374 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Norf very close last night....is a weekend of upsets brewing??? Only by teams who are aiming to win rather than aiming to be competitive for as long as they can.... http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2013-05-18/competitiveness-the-aim
Moonshadow 17,678 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 No credit for Moloney? Not exactly down hill skiing when you perform against the 2nd place side on their homeground... 15 disposals and not mentioned in the team bests on the AFL website is hardly "performing" Stuie. How many threads do you want to put this misinformation on? I've counted two so far. Get over it, you're turning into Rangey Mk 2 in that you think the more times you post something the more it will be true. Lol!

Yup, apologies there, I was following the stats online and added up the wrong columns. 15 touches, 7 tackles, and a goal still a pretty good game though.
Demoneyes 562 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Yup, apologies there, I was following the stats online and added up the wrong columns. 15 touches, 7 tackles, and a goal still a pretty good game though. Not quite enough though. Same thing he was guilty of with MFC.
stuie 7,374 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Not quite enough though. Same thing he was guilty of with MFC. What are you talking about? He was accused of not getting it enough in our loses and too much in our wins? They won today. Do the math.

Adam The God 30,714 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Yup, apologies there, I was following the stats online and added up the wrong columns. 15 touches, 7 tackles, and a goal still a pretty good game though. It's exactly what he would have done at Melbourne. He continues to substantiate his down-hill ski work. Very, very, very rarely does he get it done against good opposition.
Gorgoroth 13,215 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Good to see we have ran the Lions into form........
CHAMP 347 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Wish I'd got on the lions at $11! Never mind Pates, open a Bet365 account and load up big on the Dees at $21.
Chook 15,068 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 No credit for Moloney? Not exactly down hill skiing when you perform against the 2nd place side on their homeground... Every good game Beamer plays for the Lions is an indictment on both him and Mark Neeld.
Chook 15,068 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Never mind Pates, open a Bet365 account and load up big on the Dees at $21. I thought the object was to win money, not lose it.
PD72 22 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Have to give credit to the Lions though, they did play well. As a Bomber supporter we have been playing like this since the GWS game. Obviously against Geelong we didn't take our opportunies kicking 1.9 in the 3rd Q. If the GWS were more experienced and converted missed opportunies they might have beaten us. ATM we lack intensity at the start of the game and as others had pointed out we think we just need to turn up to win. Michael Voss is safe atm and he hasn't lost the players at all. Don't forget they were good against the WCE and could have won that game as well. Voss may still get the arse if they decide to go in another direction at the end of the season. If you think the Dees and Neeld are under pressure look at the Bulldogs they escape the media attention all the time.

Do you think the interviews have finally made his scandal really weigh on the playes minds?
