Has a team ever won the Inside 50 count by 20 and had more Inside 50s than their score?

There’s not many games that the umpires really impact!

But they absolutely screwed the Demons tonight!


Umpiring a disgrace.

Harmes killed all our momentum in the third quarter when he decided to go and hit a number of Port Adelaide players on the [censored].

Lewis cooked.

Tyson cooked.

Fumbles.

Umpiring a disgrace.

Oscar is nothing with Lever.

Melksham and Tom McDonald couldn't buy a free kick.

Hogan went missing.

Jetta is a star.

 

I'm not unhappy with our effort away from home.

I thought we deserved to win but for the umpiring.. early it was the momentum stopping free.  Late it was 10 consecutive free kicks in the last quarter. 

What else can we do?


Four point to the AFL tonight. 

That was as blatant as is gets

We lack composure. We don’t make selections factoring in the opposition or the conditions. We don’t beat good teams.

Great effort by most with poor execution. Needed to take our chances in the first half but couldn’t break them or the crowd. Two many that think they are better than they are. Hogan and Petracca time for your talent to be matched with intensity. 

Deserved to lose. 

Taking out Spargo and not bringing in another crumber, having all those useless inside 50’s with no one to pounce, while Tyson comes in to do some bit part stoppage work in some sort of made up role is just nonsense. 

Worst part is Port were awful. 


Don't care what anyone says, we were absolutely robbed by those [censored] maggots!!

I think we will probably scrape into the 8, and lose week one. 

Too many players who give us nothing under pressure. Jetta and McDonald literally bleed for us, while Petracca, Tyson, Hogan, Neal Bullen etc disappear. 

Losing Lever was the end of our season. 

I hope we make finals to get over that mental hurdle, but sadly we are nowhere near good enough to impact in September. 

A brave effort.

Utterly disgusting umpiring

But gee we do some stupid stuff, ie Oscar's 50m penalty when he was three weeks late, to pick one example 


With that loss and seeing as we can’t beat any team with talent and with the run home for other clubs below us I can’t see us getting near the eight now.

Pretenders may as well book September holidays

Just did!!

If you follow the Socceroos and Melbourne you seriously need some good counseling.

 

Lost that in the first half with so much wasted opportunity. We had them complete on toast but persisted with the long bomb inside 50 to a pack of 10 players system which NEVER works for us. Just dumb footy.

umpiring sucked bad but we lost that ourselves

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
