the first time we go long and direct we score a goal.

We consistently handball 1-2 times too many. 

 

Hot garbage. Lucky they can’t kick and keeping us in it. 

Headless chickens.

Not really. We're winning most contests. the problem is we spud it up across half forward and gift them 2-3 easy marks and entry.

Just wait until Cox turns it up. 

Must be watching a different game to you because I’m not seeing us win most contests at all.

Agree on Cox though.

Another embarrassing goalless quarter coming up. Insane how we can go from highest scoring team to lowest scoring team over one offseason. Pathetic that the coaches haven’t sorted it out yet. Can’t win a game if you don’t score! 

Don’t worry Goodwin has 4 more years to not fix anything. 


You line up at the opening centre bounce with Jones on one wing and Spargo on the other. I just cannot fathom it.

More space in our forward line please.

Lever looking ok.

I think we will win 2nd qrt.

Fritz has really gone backwards. 

Nice to see a bigger body than omac down back.

Whatever result, clear that May and Lever will make us a considerably better team.

by this time next year Goodwin wont be our coach. We are just biding time....wasting time!

 

The people critical of vineys leadership and bad disposal the same calling for Gawn to be captain he started  the chain of handball clangers with a 1 metre handball miss at the first clearance 


In one quarter of footy we managed to display every type of skill error it is possible to execute on a footy field. 

The backline would not want to be judged by the same standards as applied to Oscar McDonald.

Collingwood playing like last year's grand finalists.

Why is it allowed for Grundy to pull the back of Gawn’s jumper everytime at ball ups? Blatant holding. Same thing happened numerous times last game.

That last bit of play was unbearable.

You had Hannan streaming out of the square for a lead, a PADDOCK in front of him and Harmes decides to kick long to the goal square..

We wouldn’t beat Carlton or GC17 the way we are playing

No one can hit a target, midfielders don’t work defensively, we are slow on transition and look completely devoid of any skill whatsoever 

Its last year’s QB all over again 

Our backline are killing though.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
