Adelaide with 9 changes last night puts the MFC to shame

Donā€™t tell me the club is too inexperienced, itā€™s a cop out. Train the players to follow team structures and to win.Ā 

allowing a side to kick 15 of 16 goals on our home deck is just ā€œLazinessā€ and ā€œi donā€™t care enoughā€

Many here will disagree and tell me i am impatient, tell me its rebuild 39 and will take time. (That old cop out)

Go away and accept mediocraty somewhere else. Adelaideā€™s coach was murdered not long ago and they can still function.Ā 

Get your shite together this season Goodwin, you have had the best coaching transition in AFL History.Ā 

Use it, donā€™t waste it

    After last years GF debacle where they didn't show up followed up by last weeks poor effort against the Pies I'm sure there were people onĀ Crowland Ā calling for Don Pyke's head.

    A week's a long time in football.

    I am sure you are right.Ā 

    My point is a bunch of no names came into the side last night and did the job

    Paddy McCartin is a dead ringer for Robbie ā€œMad Dogā€ Muir

    He was one scary bastard. Could play occasionally when his temper allowed it

    Cameron : 15 metres out, directly in front....shank. What is wrong with the majority of todayā€™s forwards.

    They are buggered from so much running ?ā€ā™‚ļøĀ

    McCartin has ran himself under the ball 5hree times in the second half (5 mins gone in last qtr)

    So glad saints took him.

    GWS slowly getting on top.

    Occasionally you see a glimpse of the running game but their players lack the strength to break tackles

    Ā They have wonderful agility that does allow them to evade a tackle.

    Just no good against close checking

    Amazingly the saints are still in this game

    Carlisle double grabs ball and Davis spoils with 2 secs... Draw!

    Carlisle should have snaffled that mark.Ā  Saints fans are booing but the spoil from Davis was fair.Ā  They should be booing Carlisle instead.

    Lousy game but great ending

    Definitely not a mark, hit his hands and bounced straight out of them.Ā

    Would have got it on 2nd attempt but for bad interference from Davis. Carlisle's only offence not wearing a hawthorn jumper.

    Exciting finish with Saints GWS.

    Ā 

    classic Dwayne commentary in game ā€œGreat crowd here, Saints fans are like diamonds, you just canā€™t crush themā€

    Ā 

    a bit later, ā€œThis game deserves a bigger crowd, a disappointing crowd of 14,xxx hereā€

    Ā 

    the guy is an absolute moron and should not be commentating!

    There was no arm chop at all. Iā€™ve rewound it a few times on Foxtel, Davisā€™ arms didnā€™t even make contact with Carlisleā€™s.Ā

    Nah. Not in those circumstances. Maybe in the first quarter. He should have taken it at the first grab anyway.Ā

    So sick of the Eagles, and they will be 4-1 and on top of the ladder if they beat the Blues.

    This is one game I will be happy to see Carlton win.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.Ā

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
