Some players are having bad games. 

Good. It gives them focus to train out those deficiencies in the coming weeks. 

Video to be studied very closely.

He’ll struggle to get a game this year.

I feel like he'll be on the bubble every game, but won't get dropped once injuries start.

Brayshaw probably to the main offender, which is annoying because he is a ball magnet.

Yes, his disposal hasn't been good so far today, but I'll put it down more to it being the first half of real competitive footy for the year than anything else.  His disposal isn't always that flash regardless.

The Wagners and Hore don’t look up to it.

I thought Hore looked alright myself.

    ANB also very ordinary 

    You are just realising that now?

    Richmond winning in the air and on the ground. Who is 38 for them? Killing us in the air.

    Is number 34 for us Hore?

    He has done ok INHO.

    Poor disposal from gus, nibbler, JKH and stretch hurt us.

    RIchmond spread brilliantly and opened us up. 

    I have not seen Dusty up close before. I now see why he is so hard to stop!


    Steady on guys. Even Winx gets beaten in barrier trials!

    They moved dusty onto the ball that quarter and the whole game changed immediately. 


    that midfield combo of oliver, brayshaw, and harmes with trac and salem coming in would have to be one of the most exciting group of 21-23 year old mids i've seen

    shame gus can't hit a target and trac can't kick a set shot

    they're basically full strength, and when they had the centre square combo of martin, cotchin, prestia plus titch edwards coming in they were so much stronger than the group that we had up against em, which at one stage seemed to include stretch and jkh

    And for all that, we're on level terms at half time.  Funny that.

    Who would have thought that playing two Wagners wouldn’t cancel each other out? 

    Petty looks promising. 

    Oliver quite possibly could be the GOAT.

    Just wait till we add Viney back into the midfield mix with Gawn knocking it down they're throats.  It will be orgasmic to watch.

    I had a feeling that the rotations through the midfield were biting us.

    Richmond were doing their flood dump kick attack that quarter.

    Weeds seemed to get caught under the ball a few times.

    We need that tall option to take the contested marks

    We’ve shown lots of promise for an exciting season ahead for mine

    FMD!! I'm reading some negative [censored]. It's half time in a [censored] JLT match FFS .Settle down lads.

    Bit bitter but optimistic, wouldn't you say?

    There wasn't much else to say about the second quarter. Just sucked. Nothing much more you can say. Noones slitting wrists.

    IDees very ragged and being belted at ground level. And sorry  to say but Petracca looks slow, overweight and not that interested.

    • 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.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
