Brayshaw looks stunned. I'm worried about him

Has slowly regressed other than the odd cameo "good" old Gus in minor patches the last few weeks.  'One touch' confidence has dissipated since 2018.  Not that he was ever super quick or quick but seems to have lost a half yard of pace (for Gus) also.

 

Dees not clean, some players zero confidence!

ANB gone totally backwards this year.

Are Clarry and Gus in the middle at all?

I'm in the forward pocket and Trac gave him a spray for not running up the field when the ball when out of the forward 50 and up the ground. 

Love to hear this - especially after his effort late in the Carlton game (granted, he would have been cooked)

Something is up. One of the best midfielders last year, languishing in the forward line....

    ANB ughhh... Running at about half his 2018 level and even that was borderline to sub best 22.  Going to be hard to justify keeping him on the list for 2020 i would think other than depth.

     

    Tackling?


    How many times does an opposition player get around a ANB and slip past him? Lay, or even attempt to lay, a tackle son.

    Overrated apparently. Pressure and tackles win games. No way we can win this if we continue playing how we are. 

    What an abomination the advantage rule is.....Umpires clearly have no idea WTF it is for.

    [censored] me we are rubbish today. No idea anywhere on the ground. So much for the backline being back. They can’t defend a fly. 


    Holding the man - Bulldogs. How many times are the umpires going to say that today? What about us?

    Woeful this quarter

    Clarry only 2 possessions. 

    Was on the Bont for a bit of that.  Bont not having much say either so far.  On Dunkley for the start of this quarter.  Lewis to Bont is a huge worry.  Surely Harmes goes to the Bont.

    Lewis goes back to replace Jones.  Jones into the middle from here.

    Yep, we’re still in the quarter time huddle.

    Brayshaw dumped again. Nev beaten on the goal line and they score a goal. Jones walks away then remembers" oh I'm the captain... " And turns around to give him a pat. 

    Man. The. [censored]. Up. 

    So easy for them. Free man everywhere with zero pressure.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
