GAME DAY - Round 22

Featured Replies

If you're going to lose at least take the game on and run both ways and attack the ball when its there rather than wait for some one else to get it. I can take skill errors but lazy football I can not.

I back that we kick it to their spare a further 5 times this quarter. How dumb are we.

 

Next week will b fun coming back from a nice warm day in WA.

 

It's the correct decision though.

No it isn't. Head high contact is penalisable whether accidental or not, and that's the way it's been played all year, with the exception of conscious ducking. It's a further embarrassment to the umpiring of the game. Utterly woeful.

I know its early days but Oscar Mc Donalds first few disposals have resulted in turnovers!

 

Summary:

1st QTR in the last four weeks

6 goals to 1

5 goals to 1

8 goals to 1

7 goals to 2

Yet again game over at qtr time.

We have been killed yet again by the spare man in defence.

Great coaching Roosy. Good to see them coming out and breathing fire.

Adios I'm out of here. Think I'll wash the car.

At least we r consistent in something !!

Dees kicks to team mates are 50:50 propositions. Just kicking in hope. Freo playing like a team.


We are being positively smashed in the middle and have a slow team both in mind and leg.

I am positive that it will be a large loss.

I am positive we need better players.

No heart, no urgency, no interest.

Will there be a soul at next week's game?

You know what Praha, I was listening to Tim Watson the other day and he made a point that I have to agree with. He noted that we don't have much talent in the side. If you go through the list honestly, he's right. To the point where I'd be up for a major rebuild.

Why did we even bother with Spencer today?

We have no run, getting smacked in the ruck and the clearances. We would have been better off with more legs through the middle. And Grimes is sub is just dumb.

The coaching perplexes me.

I asked that question about Spencer when he got selected and got hammered for it


I know its early days but Oscar Mc Donalds first few disposals have resulted in turnovers!

What do you expect? He is related to Tom McDonald

Oh my God...who missed that punch?

No it wasn't. The rule was bought in to protect players lower legs. The Freo player jumped and kneed him in the neck, that is not lower legs. If they start that sort of interpretation then you will soon not be allowed to bend over.

Spot on, Dawson dropped his knee on Jones head trying to milk a free.

Thats bulltish.

You are generous. We have only kicked 3 goals during that period. None today. And we don't look like kicking one.

Very very early days. Kids been thrown to the wolves debuting today.

Jones injured.

FML

We can't get our hands on the ball in the centre

Why am I [censored] watching this and getting angry?! Get a life!

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
