Tmac.  Just runs behind....fn useless spud 

 

Umpires are [censored]!

That was throw, garlett called play on after about 3 seconds. It is BS

I seriously hate our defence. Jetta and Michie are playing their role while McDonald anf Garland continue to turn ot over and leak easy goals.

 

How many times are the dogs going to get away with throws!!!!!!! Set up two goals now 

No wonder the crows were pizzed, the doggies are getting a dream run with the umpires.


jetta and mitchie fantastic tmc good grief garland just [censored] off into the sunset

So Goldy gets a free due to a sheppard but max gets done for somethung while being sheppaded.

 

Again.. clearly ducked another free and goal to the umpires.

At quarter time will Paul Roos try something to get us back into this game or will he do nothing because his job is only to "teach us"?


Nothing to do with the umpires. Seriously outplayed so far.

Unreal isn't it

I say it again.. Our defence is [censored] [censored] house


Their back line has been tremendous.  We aren't playing all that badly, they're just using it much better going forward.

Our turnovers going forward are killing us.  Easy to blame the back line, but when you allow them to get over that zone too easily there isn't much we can do.  We just need to fix that up, get some scoreboard pressure going and we'll be right in it.

Terrible free kick for Jones to give away. Lazy.

Defined the quarter. They play the MCG better than we do. Use the space very well.

That was a toweling

Is Mac injured ? Playing a yard behind the game.

Poor post, Chook.  You're better than that.


Is it too late to make a lat change and leave Garland out. And someone give Pedersen a pair of glasses.

1 minute ago, Mr. White said:

I'm calling it early today. We're gawn. 

Way too early. Fix a few things and we'll get back into this.

Backline needs to learn how to spoil. Then we can't get it past the midfield, and goes straight back into Doggies forward line.

 

Our defence is broken. Not the personell so much, but the plan. We zone and push up to the ball carrier and just leave opposition forwards open in their forward 50. 

We are too easy to score against. It is covered against rubbish sides, but the dogs and saints have shown this.

I know we are still learning it but it needs a tweak ASAP.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
