Jones - career worst game

Viney - couldn’t impose himself 

Melksham - the Essendon player

Smith - showed some glimpses

Hannan - played little part

Oliver - always under pressure 

Weideman - looked a schoolboy 

Harmes - tried without effect

Petracca - a major disappointment 

Brayshaw -fumbled and stumbled 

Gawn - had no impact

Spargo - little to enthuse

Frost - kept at task

Hibberd - obviously played injured

Jetta - loose and overwhelmed 

Lewis - nothing to commend

O. McDonald - amateur 3 quarters

T.McDoald - had no influence

Neal- Bullen - was he playing?

Salem - succumbed to pressure 

Tyson - last Demon game 

vandenBerg - tried but careless

 

That’s light on Frost. Him and Omac were horrible in the first quarter.

So was the midfield, especially Brayshaw and Tyson which led to the delivery by Meth Coast into their fifty. Multiple stupid and unskilled handballs and fumbles.

ANB - 6 tackles (most)

The only one you were nice to was Smith and he was absolutely [censored] house

Bad post full stop.

We got to a prelim final and were over awed and out played by an experienced very good team. My 3 word analysis is for our team is 

"Too many turnovers"

Not fair to individualise players the TEAM played badly.

Team - seemingly no bootstops!

Season 2018 - a winnable flag

First time in my lifetime I actually thought we could beat the other side playing in the Grand final. That's what cuts deep about this loss, if we had beaten West Coast we could have been premiers.

This loss is in the top 5 most hurtful of my life.

I'm going to lay off the players, because the hurt is too strong to fairly analyze their performance. 

 

All 22 players- deer in headlights

Good effort but 2nd to the ball. No impact at all.

Sad but true.

Pack the screw-ins

The Demons could not keep their feet !!  they could not handball.  Gave first few goals to the eagles from our mistakes and we played their (the eagles)  game   and not ours   !!

The team - overwhelmed by occasion 

 

   AND

 

thanks for season

Typical JoeBoy response to a loss by slagging everyone. You are such a fairweather 'supporter'!!

And whom would you praise in 3 words for today’s performance?

Jones. Hang them up. 

I was scared to open this thread as I couldn't think of a single winner today. Didn't disappoint.

To be fair, that was an absolute dog day. Who did you think had a good day? Particularly in the first half when the game was up for grabs?

It doesn't mean the season was a failure, but that was a shocking performance today.

Yes what is it with that? Multiple Dees players falling over and costing us turnovers and goals.

This is not the first game that we seem to be playing on ice.

@joeboy Might as well do a season one for each player given it was our last game.

Not always one to go in for the three word analysis thread, but I can't really fault today's one, Joeboy.

It is a three word analysis of today's game vs. West Coast remember - not the season in totality

And I always thought that it was WCE who played on ice.
