GAMEDAY - Round 23


Whispering_Jack

Recommended Posts

Our tackling is just too soft.

This is a soft team IM afraid.

Beaten by a team that has no chance of finals.

Gawn is a huge huge huge disappointment.

Hogan is the unluckiest player ever.

HUnt and Hannan are second rate.

No point thinking about finals if we're going to play like this. We'd get blown out of the water first week. In reality, we haven't played well for 6 weeks or so, and it'll eventually find us out.

Jones who is captain has played one of the worst halves of footy I have seen. This is the most terrible effort that a side playing for a finals berth can put up.

Jones proving he's a perennial loser.

Lewis and Vince cashing their paycheck.

Gawn taking the [censored]. 

Hunt, Hibberd and Brayshaw haven't hit a target between them.

Garlett missing sitters. Entry forward deplorable. 

Importantly, Pies have numbers around the ball and win the important contests. It's less about how we're playing and more about how Collingwood is playing, which is quite good. They trust one another, back each other.

This is a colassal choke by Melbourne, and is a massive indictment on out leaders. There's still too many losers in red and blue.

I can't believe how many people were confident of a win.

I can't think of too many who were confident of a win. Most people were saying that IF we deserve to be a finals team, we should beat Collingwood. Well, we don't…and we won't.

It's a shame that after such a good year we're going to end the season (or best case scenario, go into finals) with such a sour taste in our mouths.

So glad i came to the match... ?

Jesus MFC... where is the passion, the gut running, the intensity. No spread. Nothing.

 

Beyond frustrating.

 

We dont deserve a final.

Have a read of the first three or four pages....  Quite a few

any chance of hitting a bloody target.

Gawn is getting beaten by most ruckmen these days. Time for him to get out of the media and get a bloody kick!

No defensive pressure and kicking has been terrible. especially Brayshaw. lift!!

our season is on the line and we come out flat. how does that happen!

I am gutted ATM. 

Hope they come back and win but really can't see it happening at this stage. 

They can win but your right unlikely. At least get much closer to them to keep some percentage.

Gawn completely innefective

Need to go pedo in the ruck for a bit and play Gawn at FF and keep hogan a CHF. Gawn has been hamstrung by the mysterious rule that for the first time in forever was being paid in the saints game.

we need to complain about the number of ruckmen that jump early and impede Max's ability to contest the ruck contest, today being a great example

Haven't turned up... not all doom and gloom, Collingwood playing at 100% we haven't got going. Once we get going which we will 3rd quarter I can see us getting on a roll. 

This reminds me of the GC game earlier in the year.

Agree with everyone. 

Our leaders are pathetic as always! 

Gawn and Jones stinking it up in the middle. Tom McDonald having a shocker down back. Vince and Lewis their usual ineffective selves. 

And Goodwin watching on doing nothing. I'm sorry but if he can't even motivate his team to have a crack with everything on the line, then what the hell is he even doing out there?

A disgusting display from a team that is soft and gutless and enjoys drinking their own loser bath water.

Hogan injured and quiet while Garlett playing well

Can't we have all 4 playing well for once?

FMD, no FMY!

What has Jesse done to deserve this?  I had, briefly, thought that the Norm Smith curse had been exorcised but clearly it has not.

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res
