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...

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
