the honeymoons over Paul Roos

How about earning some of your ridiculous pay packet?

Dumb cattle don't help his cause.

 

Dawes has had a mare.

Takes out of bounds free at the half forward line, dishes of a hand ball to player under pressure, everyone runs backwards and the ball ends up down at half back.

Takes a nice chest mark, misses a relatively simple shot at goal.

Takes a nice mark down back, kicks it straight to a Sydney player in their forward line.
 

then again might wait till jack comes on and kicks an inspiring ten goals and we win by a point

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

Bulltish looks like he is a rabbit caught in headlights..... Not that he is Robinson Crusoe!

JKH, Jeffy ??

Spencer!?? what a joke cannot even make the contest!!! Our Midfield?? sllllllllllooooooooooowwwwwww

Run and spread non existent.

We are as putrid as we were at Geelong all those years ago!

Sheeit our skill level and inability to hit targets is Telling!!

We are paying Millions for Assistant coaches that cannot teach basic Footy skills!

Im outa here!

Crap

His game plan doesn't help his cause

Are we doing as bad as the scoreboard indicates?

Yes. They're getting it through the middle and forward with ridiculous ease, while our rebound of half back just gets slaughtered in the middle and at half forward. The scoreboard reflects the pummeling we are getting.

Far out this is frustrating.

 

Not running and kicking skills are at Little league level.

McDonald is a freak while Stretch, Jones, Brayshaw and Salem are at least doing some right.

Franklin, Jack, Hannebery, Kennedy, Tippett, McVeigh, Parker...

Never stood a chance...

Torture watching Toumpas on the field - take the poor kid off & end the cruelty.

Jamar has apparently offered to Skype in on the big screen to help Pedo & Spence.....

Roosy what were you thinking?

Simply embarrasing. Only 1 goal from a first gamer in 60 minutes of farkball

His game plan doesn't help his cause

That's right, we're losing against last year's grand finalist because of our game plan.


Woeful first half. Terrible ball movement, unbelievable skill errors. We've had worse effort levels but where is the confidence and aggression we showed against Richmond? It's completely disappeared.

Spencer deserves more than one game...but...his first half was scarily bad. No improvement. Directly caused two of Tippett's goals in the only period play where we were relatively even. Every mark or free kick he waits for a runner to handball he telegraphs his need to handpass. Not impressed.

Salem, McDonald, Dunn, Brayshaw are soing well. That's about it. Embarrassed by some of the others.

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

Green vest, hardly an excuse to engage in Watts bashing.

Relax Demonland - we've got this, looking fwd to the second half.

Roosy what were you thinking?

Did you see Jamar in the twos today? He was deporable and was lucky to have touched it 4 times. He is finished.

Dawes has had a mare.

Takes out of bounds free at the half forward line, dishes of a hand ball to player under pressure, everyone runs backwards and the ball ends up down at half back.

Takes a nice chest mark, misses a relatively simple shot at goal.

Hey he looks pretty though! ;-)

Roos' credibility is on the line. I don't think he's been a very good coach the last two weeks. Our gameplan is shot and choices have been questionable.

As a club we can't afford to simply be testing the waters anymore. We need to play to win. The club doesn't have the flexibility or strength to survive performances like this over a long period.

We're at the brink as a club and no one seems to care.

Is Jackson's plan to revive the club in line with the brand of football Roos wants us to play? Because it's hideous.

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...

You cant be serious! That's Sigils interpretation of Toumpas's attitude. Unless he's a mind reader it's just another throwaway comment.

Seriously. Where is this club at?

The players just keep letting the CLUB down

How long can this last?

Maybe Mark Neeld wasn't so bad...

Where is the consistent progress. The learning??

First game, but Stretch shows more footy smarts than most on our list. He runs and makes position and uses the angles well. Looks a natural footballer.

Not much good to say but needed to say something positive.

 

Sydney have some injuries who knows we could run over the top. hmmm yeah unlikely.

  • 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.

  • 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.
