GAMEDAY - Preliminary Final vs Eagles

Featured Replies

 

[censored] me dead. How many times do we need to kick to that exact same spot, and have it intercepted by THE EXACT SAME PLAYER, before we decide to kick somewhere else. Christ some serious questions need to be asked about our players. 

That idiotic kick from Tyson was the equivalent of last week's Gunston poster which resulted in our goal. 

Edited by SaberFang

Positive note. Vanders has been great in the mid this second half.

 

He’s not alone, but Joel Smith has had a shocker today. Not sure it was a great move bringing him in for a prelim so early in his career. He still hasn’t shown he’s even afl standard, let alone ready to play finals.

I think oscar has done a good job today

He has, but someone will pipe up no doubt.

They have been exposed today. No doubt Lever’s return will help. The last 2 weeks the oppositionhave only had 1 good KPF, we still get exposed with 2 decent tall forwards.

Omac and Frost are an example of where we lack polish and need to be supporting a primary KPD

But today shouldn't be their measure as their midfield mates completely torched them

 

Vanders has been good this second half. Thank god someone has the balls to take on the opposition instead of firing off a panicked handball.


I actually think Oscar has played well considering the complete lack of midfield pressure and the quality of player he’s been playing on. 

Also if Petracca doesn’t learn to kick this summer he needs to F off. Sick of his goal kicking. 

ANB passing from 30 metres out directly in front to a player in the pocket with two opponents (yes, we luckily kicked a goal) sums up the game.

If anyone has come to the conclusion that Jordan Lewis is to blame for this then you need some serious psychotropic medication.

Although it is an expedient thing to have a whipping boy.

Another possible interpretation?

He’s having a shocker and he’s not on his own

I’m off to the Doctor tomorrow morning for some of that Medicine 

Believe he’s been a liability all year

Cant have a bloke in the side for excellent finger pointing who won’t chase or tackle except on the odd occasion when he feels like it

Have they taken Gawn off for a reason? Injured??


Fritsch would be feeling dirty right now. Not that he was the difference between a win or loss but Joel hasn't exactly set the world on fire. 

Oscar has been pretty good. Lewis, Jones, Tyson have all had shockers. 

Oh God, how did Weid miss that? This is like nightmare fuel. 

Didnt we actually have full sessions during pre season where they could only use their opposite foot?


New boot supplier please

 

We have been exposed by our own poor play and NOT by Kennedy and Darling. Eight goals for Meth Coast in the first half resulted from crappy handball turnovers.

Crappy grand final coming up. Sorry to offend the purists but I'd rather have seen GWS and Gold Coast

Let’s not let this debacle degrade us or define us

Many many positives from the season but mentally and physically overwhelmed on the big stage.  It happens. 

We have come a long way.  Time to move on and look ahead to how and where we can improve. 

I think we thought we were good enough against the Cats this year, up to Semi's. 

The Hawks as well, but was a slightly bigger stretch for us... we overcame almost too much, in one sitting, to digest in the one season...

With the new charges coming into the side this year,,, Spargo, Weidemen, the new Frost, jSmith, Fritta,  we've gone realistically as far as anyone could expect, in 2018__

Fritsch might feel better that he wasn’t part of this debacle.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
