POST MATCH DISCUSSION - Round 12

Demonland
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Talking Footy's post match discussion entailed a 30 second discussion of "how good is Max Gawn?" and a 7 minute discussion of "how bad are Collingwood?". Watson declaring that the loss marks them being at their lowest point this season.

One day, Melbourne will get total credit for a win and the opponent won't be deemed at crisis point. One day.

    It might be quiet on the tv it at the game the demon roar definitely out powers the pies and the Tigers in games I've gone to this year.

     

    And when we boo $cully it's the loudest booing at a game I've ever heard outside of a port-crows showdown.

    I think a few "well done boys " each match is quite sufficient.

    Just an all round [censored]-hot day, old dee.

    Watching the replay now and I'll tell you what has really improved. Tyson's tackling is phenomenal. He is becoming a terrific player. Really looking forward to seeing him up in Sydney next too.

    When you're the editor of the Herald scum, you'll see that "dee-spair of Collingwood, essendrugand ninthmond" will far outsell printed copies of "dee-molition at the g" or "doing the M-C--DEED" 

    Let them cry, let them argue about how pathetic they are. Let the media focus on GWS, or danger, or whoever it will be this week that's flagfavorite.we can just continue along, more experience on the big stage with more games into Wagner, petracca, gawn, Viney etc. We will bring the 6 minute important segment to them, in time.

    I was on a flight early this morning my time when the game was on. I arrived in Cairo and when I got into the hotel I sat down and watched the reply without knowing the result.

    Had an enjoyable couple of hours watching and cheering the boys on.

    Was a very good performance with a good even input from just about all members of the team. a few outstanding players with Gawn, Vince, Tyson and Jones just great. I love watching Gawn play like this. Snapping goals, romping through the center and clunking marks and the best part is that he looks like he is enjoying it.

    OMac, TMac and Frost looked the best I have seen them. They were helped a fair bit by the Pies selectors.

    Petracca did a few things today that really had my eyes widening with wonder. He is going to have a huge impact on this club.

    Another win would not surprise next week.

           Did  anybody  else  notice  the  large  number  of  DEES supporters at  the  membership  tent  before  the  game?  Hope  they  were  signing  up  for  3  game  memberships.

    Anyone got footage of Kennedy being coathangered by #40 (which was called "play on" by umpire Nicholls)? I spent the whole first quarter watching through red mist after that. I want to see if it was as bad as it looked. 

    Nasher how was the win???

    Was bloody awesome mate. Waved my flag and sung the song three times, and stayed until the boys went in. Probably won't do any of those things ever again, but felt the need for finally breaking the duck!

    We look to have settled our key backs for the next eight to ten years hopefully with the two McDonalds and Frost.

     

     

    It would help if we signed Big Mc soon then.

    Not sure if it's been specifically mentioned, but how good was Petracca's goal in the second term?  The pick up, spin, push off and then goal was sublime.  His sure hands at both ground level and in the air, as well as his explosiveness and ability to quickly change direction in a pack make him such an exciting prospect.  Really looking forward to his second half of the year.

    And just quietly, I'm confident we can push the Swans all the way this Sunday as well.  With a few players going down and their confidence taking a hit they are ripe for the picking.  Could it be our turning point heading into the bye?

    Who got injured for the Swans?

    Tippett, out for 6 weeks. Sam Reid pulled his hammy in the reserves, too, and Mills and Rohan also finished their game sore.

    It was bad!  Its rare for Roos to be really animated but he all but flew from his seat when it was called 'play on' with no free kick.

    Haven't seen a replay...we probably won't - it might upset Nathan or Eddie:o.

    That umpire Nicholls needs attitude reduction surgery. Absolute [censored].

    Was he the one one who awarded free kick for an "aggressive tackle"  WTF???

    It gives me the shits. Sounds like a library almost every week. I feel like I'm the only one out there shouting every week.

    Don't know what games you guys are at. The members go nuts. I've heard opposition fans say "there's not many of them but they're loud".

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
