If we can hold Brisbane to 27 goals we can consider it a win. 

 

Clarry's been quiet too. We appear to be half arsed in our tackling. Hope they get their act together in the next couple of weeks.

 

Guys it’s ok. We are handballing it a bazillion more times than kicking... it’s all good!

    Only positives so far are Hunt and Petracca playing to their strengths and having an impact. Gawn is wining taps, but it's not leading to any effective clearances. Everyone else is playing poorly, and the effort is non-existent.

    Hope the coach gives them a rocket and makes them have a crack. We're getting shown up by a worse team than us who are more organised and working harder.

    attitude going into, preparing for this game

    For what it is worth, just saw Preuss walking off with no limb

    do you mean limp

     

    We are playing like a side that doesn't want to be out there, soft dropping marks, its like we just want to get through to round 1

     

    Good god ANB is horrible.. can never keep his feet and just fumbly at all costs. 

    Hibberd is a worry for me.

    JLT melts in full swing...

    Not sure if you've noticed Sisso, but going back to early 2000's, our season proper has generally reflected our pre-season form.

    Imagine having to go to Amersfoort ?

    I've been to both Cranbourne East and  Amersfoort. There are an awful lot of Dutchmen there but frankly, I prefer Amersfoort.

    Lions taking this game very seriously. Dees taking it half arsed. Scoreline reflects it. 

    Is it for four points? No. Just get through boys.

    Oscar is a spud he will cost us games he gave away the first 3 goals bring in Frost.

    Started ok with their first 2 goals coming from Oscar McDonald being a total turnip.

    After that it’s been lazy tackling, poor skills, inability to get balance at a clearance or a crumb and the backline going to [censored].

    Why we are playing a spare behind the ball in a practice game is beyond me. Are we really that slow????

    Not surprised Brisbane are good. More disappointed we can’t string any midfield skill together

    Hibberd is a worry for me.

    I backed him last week, but he missed a handball, slipped over etc. He had a bit of a mare early.

    Possibly, can’t find it in myself to get worried about this yet though 


    Watt do you think happens... when players go into a game,  and play to not get injured. ????

    At this stage I’ll take my chances with C wagner over ANB

    AVB cheap shot. Why? So so so dumb. 

    He thinks he’s Jordon Lewis 

    Poor JHK that looks awful! wishing him a speedy recovery.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      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.
