Efficiency in F50

l'm sure one of the challenges the coaching staff would have set for 2019 was am improvement in our conversion and delivery around the F50. Seems an epic fail with few signs of any progress. l give them until mid 2020 to improve otherwise some new ideas are needed by end of next year

    It was showing signs of improvement and TMac got injured, then Weideman also injured. Melksham, JSmith, Garlett, T Smith all out makes it difficult!!

    Our continued reliance on directionless bombs into the 50 make it difficult.

    Yep, although I think in the last month we've been a little better.  The addition of Fritsch helps as he has good leading patterns and we've actually hit him up quite well on the lead.  It's one thing we don't do nearly enough of.

    Our delivery inside 50 was the best i had seen all year. Just couldn't finish it off.

    Lewis and Fritsch were a big part of this. It's now a no brainer that Fritsch HAS to play forward for the rest of his career. Him and Melksham kicking into our forward 50 will go a long way to Weideman and McDonald getting the job done.

    So when do we lose patients? Is it the game plan (coaches responsibility) which leaves us under pressure / in bad field position or personnel (player talent) that can't execute and follow instruction. Even when we win we tend to have been inefficient

    So our entire forward line.

    Nothing wrong with our forward delivery on Sunday. One because we had Fritsch who could take a contested mark, all 186 cm, skinny build of him versus our usual 194 cm, 97 kg plus key forwards who can’t clunk anything. But then our forwards set shot kicking was abysmal, what 1 goal 5 in the first, that was where the game was lost. Fix the set shots at goal and we are competitive.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
