No excuse. I will say this sort of thing is what I predicted something into the year, based purely on age of players. Not that I don't care. It's brutal. But I'm not slitting my wrists.

Gee, Joeboy we lost by 3 points! Your analysis gives the impression that we had a 100 point loss. Very harsh judging.

Not harsh at all, the players need to grow up and learn fast, if they aint capable then offload Quick! Very fair Joeboy! IMO

"too many handballs"... week 7 repeated.

This is what Goodwin has trained over the pre season. But he queries integrity and our effort. Poor show Goody. Watch the game. It was ineffective circular handballs. Oliver is a great young gun but his disposal needs to improve.

Your Tyson bias is showing a bit 'joeboy', but I guess this is a good wrap from you. I thought he was one of our more consistent contributors today and was involved in as many (I counted 5) goal scoring chains. No clangers & used the ball well.

Not really.  We were diabolical for the first half, played one quarter of real football and then broke almost even in the last.  If we'd played the whole match like the third quarter we'd have given them another 80+ point flogging, and that's really all the Hawks deserve.  They were crap, we were worse.

Gee Bobby ...youre right we did well....wait !! :unsure:

JB isn't 100% but when we're about 50% of what we should be, who's closer the mark ?

That for the most part was crap.

3 points this week will be a 100 next if we play the same.

I always look forward to reading your three-word analysis Joeboy, even if I agree or disagree with the majority of it.

Here are my adaptations, I think you nailed most of it this week.

As for Oliver I completely agree. He is very handball heavy. He's an excellent and very exciting player who I believe has a very nice foot on him also. I hope the club notice this and encourage him to use it more.

Jetta: Good or bad?

I can't work out how to grade Jetta. On the plus side, Puopolo did nothing and Rioli little. But was that Jetta's work? On the other hand, he keeps going up in packs with two or three other Demons attempting to stop their forwards from marking rather than staying down and being ready for when the ball hits the ground.

He is a hard one to grade. But each week he appears to be curbing the influence of the opposition small forwards. So for now, he appears to be doing his job.

Ya see its all perspective...and possibly a one size all feedback wont fit for all of a game.

Here's an example

Jones - Sank us early

Now he did improve, but as captain his game , his clunkers and turnovers cost us dearly. He aided and abetted the enemy for more minutes than is forgivable.

and yet at times he played manfully and with vision.

Its almost as all by him self he epitomises everything thats wrong with Melb Inconsistency.

Jetta seems like our only defender that can get a decent punch on the ball in marking contests. But you are right he should not go up when taller defenders are going for the ball.

Good to see Viney back to form. 

Trending  - Oscar Mac, Frost

Flat compared to last week - Salem and Petracca

Negative watch - JKH, Bugg

We need a win as reward for 4 quarters of footy.

Tyson - running into form.

Fair call rjay and joeboy. He did have the odd clanger, not that he was the only offender, in the main these were those searching kicks into the corridor to try to create some of the midfield run which were so missing in the first half. 

82% disposal efficiency on Sunday

Yes but the simple fact is we lost again BM.

There were five players out there that are not AFL level players. 

Fill ins is their best but they will not take us to finals.

JKH, O Mac, Wagner, Bugg and Tyson is a front runner does well in games that others win for us.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
