Seriously, are our players slow in the head?

Posted

That was the worst half of football for sometime. Matched anything in 2014 and possibly 2013. Absolutely pathetic.

1.3 to half time. Yep, we sure know how to play. Even Victory kicked more goals in a half than we have. FMD.

I feel that Toumpas is a confidence player, not getting that free for high when it was so obvious in the 1st quarter has gotten to him. Not good enough but...

well then he has got a pathetic rubbish attitude

Fcuk him off. Had enough of these slim hipped nancies representing my club...

Swans are 2 players down and are coming off a slog.last week. They are destroying us. But it's also a matter of us playing awful, accountable, selfish and lazy football.

Swans will win by 10 goals. At least.

the honeymoons over Paul Roos

How about earning some of your ridiculous pay packet?

simply not running hard enough, not creating the options, causing indecision, and in turn skill errors and turn overs.

One of the worst halves I've seen from this club

Toumpas has been alright. Our midfield has played like a third world midfield.

Defensively i don't think we've been bad. I know we make skill errors etc that cost is in defence but we are manning up well, protecting space etc.

What we aren't doing is attacking well. We aren't rubbing for each other, creating space or leading.

Think I should probably switch it off, this isn't shaping up very nicely at all.

Posted

Toump is probably our hardest working player from what I can see, and his touches have been classy but the whole team needs to get involved, I'd rather see blokes get reported for going to hard than soft half ass efforts

It is a third world midfield. I don't get how anyone could fail to understand that.

Garlett and JKH - 1 possession each

Way to go fellas

Jack Watts - half time and not even a stat. Show some heart, at least give away a free!

A lot of football 101 errors in the first half. This doesn't give some of our actually talented kids a chance to show what they may have. Even Lumumba struggles to look more than pedestrian with us because he never gets a chance to play to his strengths which has something to do with time and space and run. How do we expect the kids to do anything? Some of our experienced guys have been average at best.

how is dawes and hogan supposed to get a kick when the ball never goes forward,play them both on the wing at least they could defend from there.[censored] i have had this club 60yrs good grief .ps just venting my spleen

Is it too early to bring on Watts? LOL.

I get what Roos is trying to achieve, but surely there is a better way of going about it.

I would hate for his ego to get in the way of him willing to change some of his plans, in order to achieve a better result. Doing something over and over again, expecting a different result is the epitome of stupidity (especially with some of the coconuts we have playing for us at the moment).

Hard to get a stat when you are in the green vest chook.

That's me out. Despite all my optimism, it's time to concede. We are way below AFL standard. I can't keep doing this to myself. I need a break.

No confidence in anything were doing. So slow trying to move it out of half back no movement forward of the ball.

At the game and this is hard to watch live.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.

Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’
