How did Viney escape that tackle? Trac torched that play, but that was vintage handball chains c. 2018 there.

 

Something seriously needs to be done about Tracc's kicking action. Its terrible.

    Tracc pls get your kicking right mate.  Give him no other task on the track this week but working on his kicking on the run and set shots.  Stretch the same!  How far off it is Gus!????

    Lockhart is going from strength to strength. Very clever, the kind of smart footballer we need more of. Creative.


    Twice in a row Tim Smith doesn’t jump when he’s in the vicinity of TMac. The first one TMac misses the mark by a whisker, the second spills out the back and he gets a goal out of it. Forwards who don’t spoil each others marks - it’ll never catch on.

    A nice stat....

    Melbourne have outscored West Coast 3.1.19 to 1.2.8 from stoppages. All three of Melbourne's stoppage goals have been from throw-ins in its forward half.

    Fritsch of 2019 is a liability and adds nothing to the side. His kicking has turned to [censored] and he’s getting beaten in the air. Needs a spell at Casey big time.

    Why do we keep slipping over?


    Marty Hore is Steven Febey 2.0.

    VFL-level awareness there from the 1st gamer. We were off there.

    Oscar panic handball to Salem ...sells him in to trouble as he has no legs at all


    Baker struggling with the pace of the game, but getting to the right spots to link up. Could be decent if he gets used to the step up in pace.

    Few games and he’ll be right I reckon

    Ouch. Not to be heartless but shouldn’t we have the ball since no one touched the ball after the kick in?

     

    Oscar has been quite good tonight. I almost don't fill my pants every time he's near the ball, which is nice.

    • 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.
