I just said I would prefer 2 of Tim Kelly, Liam Ryan, Petrucelli or Stocker instead of Lever. Not sure where you got that I was rating him. Those r the players we missed out on by taking Lever.

I understand your opinion, here's mine:

Kelly- going home

Ryan- massive flight risk

Petrucelle- bog average skills

Stocker- hardly played, dury out

    Hibbo the easiest turnover you’ll see. Honestly we are painful 

    That was pitiful.

    Pies have scored from our pathetic 9 turnovers. Maybe Goodwin can answer why we have such poorly skilled playing group? What’s our so called great development that Mcartny says we have .. it’s laughable 

    We should actually trade Jack Viney. I have no idea what he offers us.

    Only listening to radio.  Cant watch anymore with the likes of JKH, Oscar & Gus destroying things.

    Sounds like we are back to being turnover kings and a shambles and are only capable of staying in or ahead in a match for one quarter or so at best.

    If Goodwin cant get us close to a half baked Pies team with almost no forward line with 19 rounds behind the team he should walk now and save us the embarrassment for the last few rounds and for the [censored] storm that will be next season.

    Clean half this shitty list out, put anyone in who has half a coaching brain in (Ratten?) and start again in 2020.

    Goody is destroying this club and the careers of at least half a dozen or so very good players with every week that goes by.

    Roos anointed the wrong man in a rush out the door.  What a pitty.

    And our forward line is brimming with talent atm is it?

    Lewis telling Viney a few home truths. 

    Good! Viney is a [censored] footballer. Plays only one way and that's rugby union style trying to run thro ugh everyone.

    0 tackles for Jones in the last 2 matches. Not going to win when our captain is producing [censored] like that. Completely in self preservation mode.

    0 pressure whatsoever, whoever is on Jones knows he isn’t at risk of being caught.

    We might be the turnover kings...

    ... But at least we're KINGS!

    (Sorry, I don't have much else positive to say after that quarter).

    Hahahaha Hibberd

    Watched Hunt run and create an option for Hibberd only to be burnt again for a stupid little inside trick move. Horrible.

    Skill errors are just crippling our good intentions.

    Yep chaos ball. Goodwin’s brilliant game plan which hasn’t worked for a year and relies on winning every clearance and skills we do not possess such as kicking, handballing and foot speed.

    Bizarrely seems like

    left of screen is the goal kicking end. We should of had 5 goals first Q. Would still be a tight game 

    can’t kick for [censored]

    He needs to be dumped from Captaincy as a last ditch effort to wake him up and become a footballer again.

    Agree, try get a late first rounder from Port if we lucky.

    Regardless of anything else, bottom handful are under where they need to be. Melksham (OK, coming back from injury), but Dunkley, Baker, JKH not giving enough and/or turning the ball over.

    How to beat the Dees in 2019?

    1. Put pressure on the Dees

    2. Dees turn it over

    3. You kick a goal

    Simples.

    Hibberd inability to hit a Target is mind boggling.

    Its like ground hog day every week .

    Big effort in the first , then skills constantly let us down and it’s chasing backsides all day after that.

    Vney needs to watch someone like Trent Cotchin on how to play the game and lead his team.

    Our complete inability to change game plans and respond to a team changing tactics on show here. 

    A few players have been very average,  but no attempt to change things up. Move trac into the middle for [censored] sake.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
