Grimes - was rarely sighted

Hogan - was easily contained

Howe - little to commend

Jamar - was totally obliterated - Disagree. Thought he battled really well

Jones - couldn't get involved

Kennedy - Harris - totally lacked finesse Tried to take game on but is not good enough and should take first option

Lumumba - couldn't get involved - Disagree. Ran hard again all day tried to link up.

Pedersen - limited by size - Was amongst our best in effort

McDonald - our only winner

McKenzie - an irrelevant footballer

Michie - exposed by pace - and endurance

Newton- was rarely noticed Made a few bad blues

Salem - loose before injury

Tyson - continued disappointing season - agree. He isn't right.

vandenBerg - out of depth

Vince - no hero today

Watts - embarrassing and insipid - Just get him out of my sight.

 

Brayshaw - cemented senior spot

Cross - age catching up

Dunn - tried but beaten

Garland - some good efforts

Garlett - lone ranger forward

Grimes- looked past it

Hogan - ok but held

Howe - just another game

Jamar - tried but beaten

Jones - too many clangers

Kennedy - Harris - out muscled constantly

Lumumba - couldn't break free

Pedersen - worked very hard

McDonald - 2015 b&f winner

McKenzie - a vfl footballer

Michie - another vfl footballer

Newton- a reality check

Salem - was sorely missed

Tyson - poor form blues

vandenBerg - tried but beaten

Vince - just did enough

Watts - worst 100th ever?


Big Quality Mids, please

We keep selecting the wrong types as the game changes Now you need Fyfes and Mundys and Barlows and Subans

They were hard at it all day and even when they were cruising their midfiled were a couple of classes above

We were horrid all day. Freo played in second gear all day, had all the run, all the pace, all the positioning, but were very average going forward for 3 quarters.

I thought they were a 20 goal-better side today. If we didn't have Garlett, who would have kicked our goals? We didn't kick a single goal off a rebound.

We are lucky it was only 68 points. Saying it was commendable for 3 quarters is comical.

Fair call!

Rubbish!

Jamar played well in the circumstances. Tell me who Grimes was on? Ballantine. What influence did he have. And Pederson played a pretty good game


Brayshaw - Competitive and consistent
Cross - Beaten but committed
Dunn - 2014 a memory
Garland - Constantly out marked
Garlett - Not quite damaging
Grimes - Locked down Ballantyne
Hogan - Didn't get delivery
Howe - Going through motions
Jamar - Old and tired
Jones - Outran all day
Kennedy-Harris - Constantly found out
Lumumba - Really just "there"
Pedersen - Better than Dawes
McDonald - Contained their best
McKenzie - Dear God why!?
Michie - Run outta MCG
Newton - Did he play?
Salem - Standard loose game
Tyson - Can't break tag
vandenBerg - Tried all alone
Vince - Out of depth
Watts - Will never arrive

Go back and do it again and take into account we were playing the most in-form team of the comp.

You let yourself down with complete negativity.

You have a good column and I like reading it, but if you came home grumpy, at least take a bit of time to rationalise before putting your thoughts into print.

You have to be bigger than this

If we want to be a top team we need to rate ourselves against the best.

I don't agree with all assessments but most were fair.

On a side note I think we've got a real beauty in Brayshaw. The kid can play and the Freo players gave him a bit more respect after he nailed a few hard tackles.

Grimes on Ballantine. Ballantine 9 poss. 1 behind. I'll take that

Except Grimes was on Mayne

 

We were horrid all day. Freo played in second gear all day, had all the run, all the pace, all the positioning, but were very average going forward for 3 quarters.

Totally agree with this. Freo should have been 10 goals up by 3/4 time, plus the flogging that came in the last quarter. Just imagine if Pavlich and Walters were on in the third quarter when the flood gates started to open.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
