Petty is playing like Oscar McDonald

 

What’s happened to Petty’s marking? Seems to be misjudging the flight of the ball.

His marking has been very strong the last few weeks, same as Keilty

Dunno what’s going on with both of them 

 

Yeah i dont think we'll see Keilty in the AFL anytime soon.


backline leaking like a sieve sound familiar?

Troy Chaplin is what’s going on with them.

 

Keilty was clunking everything that came his way the last 2 weeks

Dunno what’s happening today


Big difference in foot skills. Chandler the only one to maybe get excited about at this stage.

Gotta be the wind, all our players going up 2 secs too early 

This looks like a complete training drill for the Hawks

Our easy exits from defensive 50 are an embarrassment at both afl and vfl level - really sub-standard defensive efforts

2 goals 2 for the quarter with the breeze compared to 4 goals 2 into it...not good!

They look as bad as the seniors 

Bombing it forward, shambles in defence. Look like our 1sts. 


Chandler and Stretch the only 2 having a go the rest are pathetic. If Smith could kick he might be a good player.

have never really understood why we exclusively play the same gameplan at VFL as at AFL.

Sure play it for a half or every second game ...but experiment !!!

Frankly at VFL level the chaos theory is more of a scrum that does not encourage skills

So far In: Preuss, Stretch

Out: T.Mac (if injured) (if not) O.Mac and ANB.

I can't believe O.Mac gets another game due to this performance.

Is Chaplin the worst coach in history? Must be close.

Stretch has been killing it. Showing genuine speed. I'd bring him in for KK.


Hawks run & carry (able to link up more often with quick ball movement) and have more players capable of side stepping / baulking or turning their opponents to run into space or switch play.  They are more fleet of foot also.  We have mostly slow/pedestrian plodders in comparison.

They are also hitting so many more targets by foot and finishing in front of goal beautifully.

 

have to remember that the Casey team is almost unrecognizable from that which played last year. I'd love KC to give us the numbers but it's probably 50% turnover if not more.

 

What the hell was Hore doing? Left his man and allowed him to take an easy. Woeful recruit go back to Collingwood!

Baker not showing much, pity.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
