Stop Trolling. We don't look so bad. 2 pretty ordinary decisions, We most times are first to the ball

Rubbish, we look awful. Have you forgotten who we are playing?

 

Haha come on man - if we win this by less than 40 points or heaven help us lose it will be a disgrace.

It's a practice match, time to get to know the game plan etc etc. Foot skills ok. I don't expect silky skills this early. They have stacked the backline

Dude come on - we're playing a VFL team and a bunch of kids. We've got close to our best 22 other than Vince Howe and Kent.

Mate you are kidding yourself. Scores now level. Make as many excuses as you want, we are playing rubbish football with practically our best team on the park against a 4th string bunch of blow ins.


WE have had in our forward fifty for all the game nearly. I give them some slack due to have 18 opposition players in the same space. Tell me what we are doing wrong

Fairly disappointing so far. Skill level moving into the forward 50 poor, and the Bombers are leading us to the ball at the moment. They're playing harder with more pressure.

I thought Rohan Bail was meant to be an elite runner? Or is that his dad?

Bails was off and he upped stumps.

It's not the lack of effort that's a worry it's the shocking disposal and occasional lapses of attack on the loose ball.

We lack the ability to do the basics right.


Salem is very good

Loved the push on chappy afterwards too :)

Cmon guys, how often do we play with the other team parks the bus as must as these guys. I think they are doing ok

Im trying hard to see where you are coming from, and not just jumping down your throat, but geez man, if you cant see how bad we are playing you need to start following another sport coz you clearly dont understand this one.

I feel like in general Melbourne are just a second or so too slow to make a decision and execute. The good teams know what they are doing before they get the ball.

They're running us ragged at the moment. We're doing all the chasing through the middle of the ground.


37 points apiece in a game where many were expecting a 100 point plus smashing. This is disgusting so far and we will need to lift massively to get some respect from this game.

I'm more disappointed at how many times we are handballing to a player in trouble

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

    Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

    Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
