Has this been the most biased commentary you've ever heard?  Cameron Ling wants to boof every one of the Tiger players up the [censored].  

Mate, when you have a team playing as bad as us, what do you expect? Honestly, if I was in the Box I would be tearing our pi$$ weak players a new one. Pea hearts the lot of them.

 

At least the weekend is free now.

    I’ve been critical of Goodwin so far this year, but he made some positive moves today imo, but the skills have been possibly the worst I have seen from a Melbourne side for a decade, and that’s saying something. So many fumbles and missed handballs. Can’t blamed Goody for that [censored].

    What were the positive moves ? Any simpleton could coach to stop the bleeding which didn't hold up in the end anyway. Forward line was no existent & ball movement was just bomb away. I think he has a [censored] load to answer for tonight & the other 5 weeks

    It's like that for all our games. AFL sanctioned of course.

    Totally agree. 

    Does the afl want the cash for the fake tanking fine? Why is there so much bias against us

    So he had nothing to do with the high press being put back in place at the start of the last? Hes not in charge of the midfield setup coach? The players effort lacks when the games gone. The jogging after they waltz through our setup hurts from certain players, it wouldnt make any difference to that play, but they could effect another contest. It would be hard giving opponents such a headstart every time.


    Good. Gawn.  Melksham  Brayshaw. Hore Salem 

    passmark.  Frost  Lockhart  Viney Lewis Fritsch  Jones Hibberd Harmes Stretch 

    Poor.  Garlett.  Oliver. Hunt  Anb  TSmith 

    very poor. Petracca  Weideman. Tmcd.  

    Heads down in the room but I dont think they give a stuff.

    FCS ignore umpires, ignore commentators. We have so many issues with our list and personnel.  Our list is putrid, it is not a list capable of outside run and retaining the ball by foot. Recruiting has been putrid.  So many VFL standard players.

    Frustrating to watch full time professional footballers play like suburban amateurs. They are trying but the skills are deplorable and they work together like a group of tradies that get to train once a week together, if they have the time. 

    There are no systems down back, up forward and now our midfield group doesn’t seem to have any cohesion. 

     

    Question recruitment.  Wow last year Jason Taylor was the MAN. I argued otherwise and get shot down.  Too many plodders. Dumb players. We need soldiers that will run til their guts ache. 

    We need skilled footballers.  I could cut 25 blokes tomorrow.

    For me, our forward movement was consistently butchered by fumbling and missed handballs. You say the forward line was non existent but the ball barely even made it there due to handling errors. Not sure what the inside 50 count was, but they had pretty much doubled us last time I saw it.

    I’m not really sticking up for Goody, as I’ve been very critical of him, but there’s nothing he can do about those handling errors. It was amateur hour out there.

    Hogan for a fat slow full back 

    Great trading 

    Just great...

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
