Classic Bugg.

 

[censored] sake bugg

[censored] right off Bugg. His ball use is a disgrace for an AFL footballer. 


Buggy's kicking for goal is absolutely atrocious. I'm a massive fan, but he absolutely has to sort that out yesterday.

 

Tom Bugg is a liability.  He should be told to hand it off every time he marks inside fifty. Cannot kick for [censored]

Just like last year, Bugg misses what he needs to kick.

 

Hogan having a cracker. Big 2nd half coming up.

Edited by DSP

In slippery conditions, that was a great first half.

Everything we struggled with last week has been improved.  We've been more efficient going forward, our backline has worked superbly and we've more than broken even in the midfield.

The one big thing that stands out are our high half forwards - Melksham, ANB and Garlett are all having much, much better games than last week and you can see the difference that it makes.

Now we need to finish them off and win the game by 10 goals!

Jones is cooked Harmes is dinking bathwater

 

 

Jones no, Harmes yes.

Harmes, Bugg and Wagner bottom three easily.

That chase by Hogan one of the best things he’s done at AFL level, superb.

3:3 to 2:3 that quarter ... a tad disappointing but I'll take it after last week

The humidity will slow us down in the second half so I would like to see a 5 goal to 2 third quarter so we have some breathing space for the last.

I hope they don’t get over confident, after all it’s only Brisbane. Still at the same time I hope it gets them into the winning feeling. Ps Hogan is my new crush.

Bugg and Tyson need to learn how to kick 

They shouldn't have to learn on game day. They should be learning at training or at Casey. It isn't good enough at this level. Tyson's kicking, turnovers and lack of awareness hurt us as a side too often. Bugg just plain and simply is a sh*t kick.

Hunt has been very quiet once again

He has been one of our harder runners though, has been running both ways.

True Steve, it was poor.

I must admit that I didn't see you posting when one his kicks hit ANB lace out for a goal.  

Swings and roundabouts I guess, eh?

Oh you mean the target he missed, but luckily there was a player behind who was in great position to mark. 

That one was good.

yes and showing no dash ,which was his trade mark

If the moron maggots don't do something about a "pushing in danger rule" someone is going to get a broken neck....

How many times do i have to say it, and it happens in every game.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
