GAME DAY - Round 10



Recommended Posts

Roos is right.

As soon as we stop playing as a team, start playing like buggered, unfit amateur footballers, it's unsurprising that the opposition gets on top.

Will be a battle of the fittest at the end.

I reckon we r cooked again.

We didn't score at all for the last 9min and as soon as Collingwood put the pressure on our disposal went to shitz.

I am conducting a little experiment today. I delayed watching the game on the box because the good lady was delayed getting home. We are about 1 quarter behind but I am reading the posts on here. I thought after post 247 we were about 60 points down judging by the comments. At the 14 minute mark of the game we are 1 point down in the 2nd quarter. Seriously people when Roos talks about mental scars I reckon he includes D'landers as well. We look good at the moment and reckon we will be in front by half time. Lets be a bit positive on here. In the terms of Donald Sutherland (dees just hit the front) in Kelly's Heroes "Enough with the negative vibes".

6 in a row against the filth. Where is my Red Wine waiter?

If we continue to let them play Oxley as a loose man in defense, we'll lose. We need Pig Dog to put a hard tag on Pendles until he can't run any more then sub him off and get Matt Jones to do the same. Pendlebury's tearing us a new one.

Gawn is having a big influence in the middle.

Sadly as soon as we get the ball we crap our pants. Big occasion getting to the players?

Brayshaw is the most composed out there and has the least experience. Go figure.

We put an extra down back and so did they. Difference is they can hit a target going forward and we just bomb it long to Hogan and 3 Collingwood defenders.

The bombing it long into the forward line is something I've almost managed to coach out of my Year 2 auskick side, Roosy and the gang persisting with it at AFL level though I see. FMD

We didn't play bad in last 9 minutes. The change was Oxley being spare man in defence.

Roos needs to man it up. We were on top last week until Port put Ebert back as spare

Getting the Red wine googles on. Always looks better when I have them on. Are you suggesting that perhaps my positivity is misplaced (Elliot just goaled) B*gger!

Not getting enough from Riley, Newton or Pederson

Agreed, and there is room to improve. I thought Pedersen lifted in the second and Newton has laid 5 tackles to half time. They are contributing but need to do more in the second half for us to win.

Pedo has set up 2 goals!

If we can see that Oxley is killing us as a spare (and to quote Rowan Atkinson "I think we can...") then certainly roos and those in the box can too. So can some one who knows more about footy than I do they'll me why we don't make it one on one?

Garland is not having a good game at all. Poor decision making. Has had a kick smothered at least 4 times I reckon. Needs to find another way to go forward.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    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
