If this is our game plan, then Goody needs to go.

If Goody can't get us to play his way, he needs to go.

FMD this is so frustrating to watch.

 

Least buggys kicking has improved

Losing every single one on one. Getting reamed by umpires. Only trail by 13 so we are still in it. Time to become a match day coach Goodwin. 

INSPIRE.

 

Bugg seems to get himself opportunities but never kicks straight, today may be his day


So much Majak love from Ed 

If they just replayed the last 8 games against North and saved me the hassle of going to this shizen; that would be appreciated. 

The umpires should be taken out the back and shot. Disgraceful display!

 

Oliver not handling a tag well so far

Bugg and Kent our goal kickers.....mmm. What the?

I'm trying to work out what I'm hating the most, the umpiring or Majak actually looking like a footballer.

Loose man in defence destroys us every time.

Loose man in general and it seems to happen all the time.

How many people in here pooped themselves in the first 15 minutes? Not going to bother reading but we may need to send the cops round to check on a few. 

Only complaint at the moment is us bombing the thing forward. We all knew we couldn't do that, yet we have done it and they have picked it off with ease. When we lower our eyes we kick goals. Funny that. 

Great to see Buggy kick both goals as well! 

The fact that we have not come our breathing fire today, and have allowed for long periods of poor footy in the past 2 indicates that the players' are lazy and not inspired. An indictment on the coach.

Our supposed game-plan is proving elusive, and we don't have a contigency in place for when it isn't working. All failings on the coaching group. Goodwin's time at the helm is fast approaching the point of no return.


How stupid are our players hacking forward or kicking long down the line when we've got a small forward line. This is just horrible to watch.

Credit where credit is due, he has been very good so far.

Well I hope that was our crap quarter !!

Lucky not to be further behind.

Our spread is terrible, they are hunting us so well we are hardly moving. Our skills are fucken atrocious. 

Hope that's our bad quarter.

Thank goodness for Bugg!  Kicking practice appears to be working

And Lever would want to start pulling his finger out, he looks slow and dumb.

 

I can’t watch or listen to it which is frustrating but looking at the scoreboard at least we managed to peg it back after giving them yet ANOTHER fast start. 

13 points can be reeled in quickly if they switch f—k on. Sounds like the umpires are wearing blue and white undies. 

This is where having Tom MacDonald out, Weidemann not ready, and Pederson down on form hurts us. Fritsch isn't experienced enough or solid enough physically to be playing as a KPF.

At the other end, Frost. Not a smart footballer, and it's being shown up today. 

And the above helped by some seriously dodgy frees in front of goal.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
