hogan and tmac whats going on not involved at all

 

 
 

Ripping game of footy. Collingwood is the real deal. We're not quite there.

Why are we trying to flick the ball around when we have Collingwood players swarming around!???

 

 

Jones is back to his swallowing the pill days.

Would help if we could kick it to them and not up in the air. 

Hogan and tmac need to get into this

The good... only 19pts

The bad... everything else.

the pathetic... the handballing, Jones always wanting to handball and then get it back, you are not GAJ, stop it. All he is doing is putting the player he handballs to under massive pressure.

Instead of getting the ball in quickly from the centre to tmac and Hogan we are handballing in traffic until we turn it over. Our organisation of our defence is non existent. There are paddocks in the middle of the most dangerous spots for the pies to lead into.

Can someone please tag or better yet smash that fat turd De Goey?! He is killing us. Any chance Goodwin can put a man on him?

I can’t see us winning it. They are getting easy goals and they are cleaner with the footy. Tom and Hogan done SFA which isn’t helping. 


All these soft games leading into this one, all the media hype has got the better of them. 

Pull your finger out .

We’ll see what the coach and players have in them now, look flat footed from the start unfortunately. We can’t play much worse and they’re playing out of their skins, should be 50 down.

That Pedersen mark is why he's our best 3rd tall option.

...and his ruck work and work around the contest is why he's not...

Wow, our disposal is pathetic.

Pressure. They are applying heaps. 

Ok, we are certainly not out of it and calm heads will see us finish over the top of them.

The one question that's been answered is the ruck. Gawn is miles ahead of Fabio. Not even a contest.

Just now, —coach— said:

Clearances 24 them, 11 is. That’s where our problem starts

Danger signs were there last week when the Bulldogs smashed us in this area.

Or with pinpoint accuracy to their direct opponent or the collingwood guy playing loose man in defence

Clear the ball more if we didn’t handball half a meter to another player under the pump.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
