Will Dusty ever have a free against?

No has incorrectly disposed on at least 2 occasions in the clear.... All umpires watching at least one or two seeing

OMG How does Neil Bullen get a game? What an idiot. Hasn't hit a target all night & brain fades continually.

The 6 tackles - leading the side yet again - have something to do with it.  He's also had it 14 times and not all of those were woeful.

But as usual, all we can remember is the last kick.

 

ANB should never play again.

We should be 20 points up but thats life. Big effort needed in the 2nd half specially being a player down plus a proppy Spencer.

Should end this fwits too

Absolutely, ffs that was disgraceful

Only Watts and Hibberd have any decent  kicking skills.

ANB gives Richmond all the momentum when they come out for the 3rd quarter. I hope this isn't going to be Freo all over again.

Didn't we do it against the Cats also?

JKH just 2 disposal in a half is simply not good enough.

Garlett needs to lift big time.

JKH is just not good enough for AFL standard.

ANB out...

Too many mistakes 

Anyone else want to continue to back this bloke?? I wanted him out three rounds ago ot up to it as for JKH Sheeit

And who the Fuuug is on Reiwoldt?? Goodwin??

Good: Hibberd Frost Watts Melksham

Next 15 ok to average with one mistake each.

Poor: Jkh (2 stats, 4 fumbles/drop marks), Gartlett, Hogan 

Tell Clayton Oliver to KICK IN. 16 posessions. 13 handballs. 4 effective handballs.

get BUGG back !!!!

Scarey.

Loved Hibs goal.

He owned it. I like that

JKH has looked a mile off. One good mark but the rest has been poo.

ANB has done a couple of good things but just lacks composure. That last kick was as bad as Fitzy's tunnel ball.

Oh, and Melksham has been good. I questioned his retention but have liked his game so far.

Edited by Radar Detector

Lets hope not another missed opportunities 19 more inside 50.....Its been the theme all year!

Positive sign is our midfield are building to be the best!

His skills are below par for sure, but "huge liability" is ridiculously over the top.  We're winning this game because of midfield and half forward pressure, and he is a key ingredient to that.  

Unless you're arguing in favour of One Tackle Kent, it's not really that much of a wonder he's in the side.  

Watch Richmond closely. All of their entries come from transition. They are quick and direct, and confident in their scoring ability. We look to chain together 2-3 handballs before a kick. We still don't use the first option, which was an issue that persisted in the Roos years. Richmond have looked similarly average as Freo was in the first half last week, but look at what happened. Geelong killed us in transition and scored every time they went forward. 

Something very weird about Goodwin's attacking structure here. We are losing games rather than the opposition winning them. This game has the same makings of the Geelong and Freo game. 

Liking Hibberd a lot. Doesn't panic. Classy. Makes good decisions. What we've missed in our backline for a long time

We are in a world of hurt. All Hardwick has to say is how [censored] have we been,  make work of them next half. This half will let us know if we are demons or not

A kick like that ended Luke Tapscott's career.

Costly to everyone. 

9thmond will have a sniff now

Yeah, I'd back him. He made a blue but let's see how he responds.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
