Not a Oscar fan, but that was a great kick and poor defending by us. Or plugins the gap, it was the only place to lead.

yep

no one filled the gap which was appalling defensive footy, but the legrope was way too long

saints dominated last 5-10 minutes

 

We are so bad

Oscar was 5 metres to the side and 2 metres behind his opponent.  


Too many dumb clangers (Jones the main culprit) and too many lack the ability to go with their man once we lose possession.

Too many at the coal face also as usual.  Smashed on the outlier by the Saints maintaining structure on the outside and not sending as many to the contest.

I can only deduce this is a coaching issue as pretty much all other teams get this part of the game.

[censored] woeful. Get [censored] with this [censored] Goodwin. Honestly this is a disgrace and we should be ashamed of this display. 

That wasnt a mark

this is painful to watch


Take me back to the first two minutes of the game! 

Umps giving St Kilda an armchair ride. That last one was not a mark.

Our defensive setup is deplorable. Everyone running around pointing like they know what they’re covering, while the opposition just chips it around for 2 minutes until they get a shot 20 out. 

 

Neal Bullen does absolutely everything wrong. I’ve never seen a player with a more negative effect. 

Siren..

Hunt is the slowest “speedster” in the game. And he does not chase at any sort of speed, just meanders around the ground.


The Saints smashed us that quarter. People attacking our defensive setup but if not for your backline we'd be 5-6 goals down.

Are we the first team to lead at half time without their midfield getting a touch?

just a bit of composure  and we should beat this shizen team...  I hope  

We are a joke. So easy to score against. Ratten is running rings around Goodwin by nullifying our midfield. Skills woeful. Too many third rate players.

Defensive setup across the ground

Phew, lucky the Saints aren't a better side. If so, we'd be 30 points down at half time.

Getting smashed inside

Need Oliver to move forward and break the Tag

 

It is purely the disposal. We get it and turn it over.

We are the worst skilled side in the AFL by a mile.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
