GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs GWS

Featured Replies

Garlett should retire at half time.  Brayshaw and Petracca suck.  Tom McDonald thinks hes  a superstar when hes not even close to one.

 

Goodwin has a lot to answer for.  Starting with selection. Another tall in Preuss to help Gawn and stretch their defense for example. Instead of another slow unskilled player. 

This is nothing but a training run for GWS, no pressure just a leisurely stroll at the MCG.

[censored] Deesgrace. Play the rest of the kids, coz this year is done.

Put Lever in cotton wool and send anyone that needs surgery in now for the start of pre season.

 

Spargo 3 handball for the game.

Masterstroke selection there Goody..

Not switched on from the first bounce & yet again No name kids wearing weird Orange jumpers are pushing us around and bullying us like babies.  

Nothing short of a line in the sand response in the 3rd quarter will do. Screw the fallout & consequences our existence is depending on this response.

Chances of going goalless in the second half?

even with injuries, nothing can excuse performances like this, and yet Goodwin and co continually do so.

Head rots from the top and it is quickly infecting our playing group.

This is just looking for a scapegoat. Sure, it's frustrating, but the problem is that half the team has hardly touched it, and when they have they've butchered it, not something something Goodwin or something something selection.

Playing Preuss would not have made any worse that’s for sure 

they probably will not review this game either. Know what we are doing wrong 

every thing!  


Forget the talk about our poor forward line and backline. Our heralded midfield is getting smashed. The worst display since the PF.

Junk time hasn’t even commenced yet. Can’t believe my eyes that quarter, so many jogging around just pointing to GWS players.

Yes, because we have so many players running round at Casey just crying out for selection.

This is about as low as it gets. All the [censored] we’ve gone through, then get that [censored] tease glimmer of hope last year, to all hope completely gone again. That’s why MFCSS is real, it’s always too good to be true. 

The hardest part about watching this rabble is how easy the opposition make it look. Even at our best we did things the hard way, it’s not sustainable. GWS having a training drill out there and we have no say in it. 

Having a bunch of ordinary VFL players out there doesn’t help, but no system, no inspiration and next to no skill is just the most deflating [censored] I’ve seen in a long time. 

We should be way past this sort of stuff. Monumental failure. 

Start again before it becomes another decade of darkness.

No Pruess is absolutely criminal.

Our entry into the forward line is D grade Amateur footy level.

Not a forward defensive bone in our line set up.

I just removed Fritsch from my favourite players that’s how angry I am. 

Cop that Bayley.

Of course. We are horrible in every aspect. But we have one clear advantage today which is the ruck. Gawn is dominating and he has to spend so much time down back. Imagine if Preuss could do some ducking and Gawn could be a forward target for all those useless high bombs? 

 

I was really disappointed pre season that other commitments would mean I would get to very few games this season but I bought my membership in hope and for support.  

Sadly the club / team has dishonoured that support and I doubt it will come again soon

Absolutely pathetic “effort” on the field and pathetic selections set it all up.  

Where are the standards set by Roos and Jackson???

Said at quarter time I couldn’t imagine us playing any worse. My bad.

Well let’s reverse the situation and take 10 of their best 22 out and put our 10  back in, would there be a difference? 

Aside from that our disposal is the worst in the AFL.

Also none of our mids have had 10  possies in half a game. 

Any wonder that this injury ravaged, non skilled team is being beaten by one of the most talented teams in the AFL.

That is as positive as I can get.

 

Swear I just saw Neeld in the back row of the box over Goodwin's shoulder. I swear it was him!

Absolutely getting smashed with the ground balls.

We are way off in intensity...

    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.
