It is [censored] infuriating. We give a free kick away on our attacking 50 and we are so pushed up that the Saints take 2 kicks and 5 seconds to be having a shot on goal. Richo was laying into us. 

Our defensive awareness forward of centre is getting progressively worse and has been an issue throughout Goodwin's reign.

what more can one say about this gameplan

Fritter in the forward half of the ground easily > Fritter in the defensive half. Can't believe it took this long to make that happen.

 

Well I’ll take it. 

If we can start defending, we might win this.

    so it really needs to be discussed. Do I know more about footy than Goodwin? I've been asking for fritsch to be played since day 1 and quite frankly I think its embarrassing that it took him 17 rounds to do it.

    Nothing to do with the game plan. If the players don't work to position, that's what happens.

    Lewis up forward is already a find for us.

    Both Wagners need to go! 

    Lack of fitness, arrogance, or laziness? Which makes us a worse defensive running side?

    They've been ok Jaded IMO.  Limitations at the moment as early days but both play with intensity ar the footy and opponents.  Josh really dropped off from a reasonable start to the season then went back for a stint at Casey when higher rated opponents returned but thats what happens to inexperienced players.

    Cory similar.  In for a few out for a few.

    Takes a while to find feet at such a high level.  Lets see how they go for remainder of year eh.

    You think it was a coincidence that when our back six returned from injury that Fritsch went fwd again?

    Oh to make positional discoveries a mere 6 weeks before a player is due to retire. How useful.

    I prefer to think of it a a low centre of gravity- he is so strong around the hips and rarely goes to ground

    Nope.

    After a couple of dud tunes, we have another for the victory playlist -

    James Brown, Get on Up:

    Starts with a goal to Fristsch, finishes just after Smith nails his.

     

    So all our goals have been thanks to two mighty smooth songs so far.

    Don't understand when you get a fast start why the hell you don't go doubly hard to make it a six goal advantage. Let them back far too easily. Lever, Lewis, Fritta, Clarry and Petracca have been good.


    Why is Lingy yelling at us?

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
