Melbourne v Western Bulldogs @ Eureka Stadium Ballarat - 14th March, 2015

Featured Replies

I am so glad I didn't drive up for this.

 

reminds of 2013 victory against dogs just held on to win it

I keep hearing Tysons kicks aren't good, his kicking v Freo was average, what has happened?

 

Matt Jones has 2 years left HH, god knows why, absolute hack

I am by no means an M.Jones fan, far from it actually but I thought he hasn't been too bad, his not the reason behind this second half effort


I will tomorrow, gee didn't expect this, very poor showing now

Stalking them on their day off now?

Holy crap, amazing. Look what happens when you get a clearance AND RUN WITH THE BALL AND KICK IT TO ATTACK!

Guess you need to be a rocket scientist?!

 

Score anybody??


I want my team to play like the Doggies. With heart, intensity and purpose. They just do NOT know how. It's like an illness.

Yeah what we did the whole first half when the game was on... We put the cue in the rack just like every other side does in the NAB once they get a lead

Score anybody??

69

54

69 to 54 in our favour.

24 minutes into the final quarter.

Should win but we're doing our best to lose it. This is a Casey Scorpions-esque capitulation.

He's been very good. As has Jimmy Toumpas and Chris Salem.

And Stringer kicks a goal. They're a super goal from the lead.

Just waiting for us to lose now, just like all those matches last year which were within our grasp and we just threw it away.

its getting worse

good grief

This is me, bollocks, we have capitulated, I hoped this was in the past

Haven't been able to watch or listen but sounds a lot like trying to snatch defeat from the very jaws of victory.....again.

This is deplorable.

 

Garland

Grimes

McKenzie

Matt Jones

None of these guys offer enough at AFL level. None of them. I'll be very surprised to see any of them in the side for Round 1.

We've got other players who do offer enough at AFL level but they all have kicking weaknesses too.

It's far too many players. We don't have enough quality kickers and it continues to kill us.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
