GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs Port Adelaide

[chook fowler 19,551]

This will test Goodwins metal as a coach. Hinkley has run rings around him so far.

[Purple77 1,001]

Think the most disappointing thing about this game so far for mine...

... is all those empty seats!

We'll get back on track. I have faith.

30 degrees at the MCG.... fitness will be a big factor in this second half

My MFCSS tells me we're not the fitter side.

Hope our skills make up the difference

Feels strange sitting at the G watching the footy and wearing a singlet.

Sorry Eddie, it’s not a very silvertail singlet either.

Cmon Dees, get your system back.

Frees 18-8 our way you just know that will even up now 

We’ve had a great run with the umpires.

[The Swimming Dee 1,904]

On a positive note Sparrow has looked not out of place

[John Crow Batty 8,879]

How many times have we seen an NQR Viney come back too early in the last few seasons? 

[BAMF 4,387]

Can't say I am surprised. We looked exactly the same in the JLT. We look very one paced in the midfield.

Still in it. Just need to start being a bit cleaner with the ball and get it back on our terms.

[DemonLad5 1,642]

We’re playing terrible and only 3 points down 

there’s a positive

no trains didnt help

[layzie 34,013]

Let's lift Dees! 

[Purple77 1,001]

Yeah been pleasantly surprised about Sparrow, thought he'd take time settling in VFL before debuting.

Has not looked out of place.

Off track may be part of the issue.  The Met off track that is.  

Imagine the prospect instead of a crowded train after the game, a bus ... how many will be needed and how many will be available.  

I know people who did not come for that reason.

Thought they've been generally poor overall, despite the numerous rule changes and clarifications

[4_Kent_Watts 892]

If we can't win with them playing J. Watts in the backline then I'll be really worried. Only a kick in it and we've not played well with lots of the side down. C'mon lads lift.

[dees189227 12,401]

Gawn should come out for the first ruck contest stick the leg in and win the contest. 

Im sure Goodwin will structure us back on track. 

Big big 3rd quarter coming up

18 frees to 8 our way. Once the eveners start getting paid we might find ourselves in some trouble. Our guys look very tired already and they are fresh. Not great after the first 15 mins. 

 

Time to lift boys 

It's probably even already from when we last played in Adelaide 

[low flying Robbo 979]

Harmes just had a spew on the field when he came out after half time

That's a good omen he's sick to his stomach with what we dished up that half.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Frost just ran away from Westhoff then.

Nice Jonesy.

Melksham BOG for us so far.

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Great kick from Trac, and smart from Melksham.  Let the captain kick the goal to get us going.

[dees189227 12,401]

Port players just get free easily.  They just run run run

Why is melksham passing. He can kick those

Nathan Jones proving he is easily best 22
