AFL Round 2 - Non MFC Games (2017)

I genuinely cannot recall a game where I have seen such poor foot skills from both teams! This is diabolical.

Aish is such a spud. Soft and lacks intensity. Give me Billy Stretch × 10000

Either can I. I'm only watching now because of how bad it is. 

I can't believe the pies pushed the doggies last week, and the Tigers walloped the blues

Treloar's kicking is going to be an issue for them.  Not just that disgraceful OOTF shot on goal, but the up-and-under field kicking is really poor.  He's repeatedly created pressure out of nothing because his kicks are so slow getting to their target. 

It's the reason why he gets so many possessions. He can actually get to the target of his kick as it arrives.

He's great at winning the ball and his hands are good, I just hate that kicking style. 

Bloody Hell, compare it to that low hard pass from Pendles.  If Treloar could kick like that he'd be awesome. 

Fasolo is a selfish flat track bully, I doubt he would get near a game at a decent team.

I wish the Dees were playing either of these teams tonight.

 

Kind of - poor teams often drag others down to their level

Hamish is such a dribbly Commentator

nobody mentions him by name!!

Please.....Dennis please come out of retirement.

Bruce's attempt at humour are nearly as bad as this game.

We are beyond being dragged down today Dr.

It's season over for the loser of tonight's game, it's also season over for the winner. What an absolute mess of a game. TV is off.


Absolute tripe football!

All this despite the fact that both teams have sweet F A on their injury lists, especially Richmond....

This is both teams at full strength....

Richmond and Collingwood are a pathetic mess. Skill levels remind me of us a couple of years ago.

Can't think of two teams or coaches i dislike more than these two.

couldn't find it in me to barrack for one over the other.

Its a shite game,kinda glad howey's been playing well.,maybe Dunny will get a run soon.

That has to be the worst half of AFL football from 2 teams I can remember.


Dustin Martin is starting to love his 'don't argues' too much. Been pinged twice in the second quarter for over embellishing.

Just said to my Dees supporting better half, that the skills on show by both teams tonight are akin to Melbourne's very worst over the last decade ........... and I don't think that's an exaggeration!

Cast your mind back to Round 2, 2016: Collingwood vs Richmond.

 

Who would have thought an opening round win over Carltank would mean nothing.

Richmond are (still) terrible.  

Pies should be 10 goals up, just wasted so many shots earlier on.

Dusty is overrated and believing his own hype. Got pinged twice last quarter trying to break every tackle instead of disposing cleanly when he had the chance. Complete opposite to Pendlebury who is so clean with his handballs and runs on to become another option again instead of just bombing it.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
