Terrible skill level.

No leadership.

What has happened to Tom McDonald and Fritsch?! Neither are even VFL standard at present. Staggering drop in form.

Melbournised.

Gee it's not pleasant viewing. 

Just want to see our brand executed well ? then I'm sure I'll start enjoying the footy again, win or lose. 

TMac is in horrendous form. He needs to be dropped or it reinforces that you can get a game based on your name and not your output.


Hurry up and get Pruess back in. He’s about the only one who can take a contested grab in the F50. 

This website is terrible for updating. Slow as a wet week

T Mac and Petracca are garbage.

Just win the game.

 

Disposal to forward line deplorable. Hibberd's first reaction is to bomb long. Not helping Tmac or the forwards. They are starting to move ball a little beter in second half of Qtr. Back men need to lower eyes.

There are seriously two sets of rules being officiated out there today... 

Umpiring has been woeful 


Theres alot of confused looking faces out there... directionless/lost/unsure.  Not sure what it is but Goody needs to earn his pay at half time and tell them to fire the hell up.

Some are going at it, too many are barely going.

What to do with T-mac?

Petracca is a potato. Trade him ffs.

Apart from that horrible set shot, Petracca has looked dangerous all game.

He’s got the yips when the pressure is on. Needs a psychologist for his goal kicking.

We are...pretty bad

No one leading for the return from play kick after a behind, no one leading i50

Skill level putrid

About the only enjoyment I’m getting is enjoying seeing Lockhart buck that trend and booing $cully every time he kicks it like a Melbourne player and bombing it long to no one in particular

Hey we turned the disposal deficit around that quarter. 

School kid stuff. Can't kick, can't handball and still to many in close at ball and no one spreading. Its not that hard !

So basically he's a forward who *looks* dangerous but can't kick and buckles under pressure.

Sounds like a keeper.

Trac’s set shots are laughably bad for an afl footballer. He’s been good otherwise and has an impact whenever he is near the ball. Time to start getting him up into the midfield instead and play to his strength.

Our set shots in general have been poor all year. We don’t seem to have anyone who can reliably kick straight. TMac did last year, but he doesn’t touch the ball anymore...

Garlett has been dangerous. He’s generated more opportunities today than all our other forwards combined have all season!

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
