Game Day Thread - Hawks v Daemons

No bruise Wattsie is only trying as he sees Freemantle on the horizon. He will play really well NEXT year for someone else!!

 

Fitzy has been awful so far


i love that Kent and Fitzy are having a dip.

Dawes looking good.

I am so glad this will be Neelds last game as coach, we are lucky not to be down by 60 already

Watts having a good game so far. As a forward. Surprise surprise. If we lose him, we are an even bigger joke of a club than I imagined.

Loving Kent. Loving Terlich.

Dawes is useless to me if he can't nail relatively easy shots on goal.

We are incredibly lucky they can't kick straight or it would be game over already. 12 scoring shots to 3? Pathetic.

At least we are tackling with intensity. Lets hand out medals.

 

official stats say Watts has only 4 touches, that cant be right

That was no" easy shot"


The efforts there just not the polish or game plan

easy shot.. facepalm.

That's because Fitzy is awful. Good VFL player & that's where it ends.


He was 45 out on an angle. He wasn't the easiest shot but he should get those. Maybe I'm harsh to compare him to Clark, but for $500k a season, you'd want to be able to kick.

Sorry but that is his primary job.

Why play on, why?!?!?!?!

I swear to god we are trying to play like Hawthorn but minus all the skills.

I swear to god this is crap. Neeld can't geit angry when he clearly instructs our players to play on.

Jaded, if they don't try and take the game on everyone claims that the coach is too defensive. What would rather - the players back theymselves and try and win, or the players just try to minimise the loss from out set?

Keep Kent in for the rest of the season, Keep Fitzy out and delist at seasons end!

Couple of times Dawes blazed when he was going inside 50, when we had spares at half forward.

Bail's dribble-shot was selfish. Watts' snap likewise. We should have a couple but we were still blown away.

Like Kent, made a couple mistakes but still feeling his way into this level. Getting a bit of ball and just needs to settle and use his kick to advantage, makes tackles stick. Go easy on big Fitz, this time he needs a few games to see what he can do.


Haven't seen a single second, but looking at the stats, we've had 98 disposals in a quarter, which is better by our standards (we've been having games of 250 overall, 98 in a quarter way exceeds our usual output).

We're level on tackles 13-13. We're level in clearances 8-8. Those are good signs too.

Clearly the 8-19 inside 50 count is abysmal, and they could already be 8 goals up, but if we're matching them for tackles and clearances then hopefully there is a base to work off.

Nice to hear good things about Watts and Pedersen.

Sounds like Fitzpatrick is doing nothing to quell my fears that he will never make it at AFL level.

What is wrong with Channel 7? I am so sick of this 'slow mo/non consequential sequence of play' buffers they put in between play. It's more like a music video than a football game.

I'm all for playing on. When it makes sense. Not when you're panicked.

Our players mostly struggle to make good decisions. Even senior players. It's not good enough.

 

It's [censored] like this, running all the way down the ground and kicking a goal, that kills teams.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
