GAME DAY - Round 6



Recommended Posts

our boys just don't play instinctive attacking footy....they don't back themselves from the get go and only start taking their opponents on and taking risks when the game is well and truly lost

Dawes marks turns outside instead of inside then proceeds to hack the ball forward to the advantage of them.... Fm he has no idea

When can we start questioning Roos' gameplan? Swans have been very average and our movement forward is as bad as I've seen.

Unaccountable football. We could have won this if we could actually generate some momentum. Swans put the cue in the rack at half time and we haven't done a thing to challenge them.

Watts came on as the sub and is just loping around.

Another poor sub selection. He should've had a full game at vfl level. Playing him as the sub has achieved nothing, just as when Neeld did it.

It's his incredible lack of effort that is just destroying to watch.

Hogan is just a star in the making. He reads the ball so well. And he can kick em from 50.

Sign him up please!!

@Young Dee Swans have been average. We could have won this

They have looked flat since the 2nd quarter and we did nothing to take advantage

Sydney didn't win this. We lost it.

Hogan, Salem, Stretch, Brayshaw, Tommy Mac.. at least there is something to build on.

God knows there is enough crap to be swept out (yet again) at years end.

A dozen players or more have had no impact.

Trying to find 6 good players is a fruitless exercise ... Salem & T-Mac have done well.

Our skills are deplorable

Give t-Mac a medal. Given the heat and who he was playing on that was one amazing game

If any SA side offers us anything better than a 3rd round pick for Toumpas - we'd be mad not to take it.

No club in their right minds would give us anything for Toumpas, he'll be playing SANFL next year.

Salem, TMac and H can walk of the ground knowing they tried.

So many players went missing

Our midfield sucks - Jones, Tyson and Vince need to lead the way

Don't know if I will bother next week

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
