Self-loathing?

... Yeah, that's when you're in the last couple of days in the world as you know it, and still subject yourself to this torture. I deserve no better. I'm going to watch this until the end, and then count the sheets on my few remaining toilet rolls.

Recycling is probably more the order of the day from here RBM

How can anyone defend this gameplan.

We have seven more inside 50's and we're almost 6 goals down

Ask Saty.

    Oliver and Bradshaw can only run one way, Lockhart, viney and Pickett the rest are just woeful.

    Push May forward and Tmac back.

    May has done nothing wrong, and Tmac has done nothing

    How much football do we have to watch where we get beaten the EXACT same way?

    Winning the inside 50’s but bombing the ball to no one. It’s been the same for 20+ games. 

    The game plan stinks.

    we are currently in 16th position on the live ladder We have moved up 1 position :) 

    I guess thats positive? come 2036, at this rate, we will win a premiship

    F— off Spargo. 

    Cannot play Spargo and Bedford in the same side. We are too small otherwise, Spargo has lost it or never had it and Bedford has a long way to go.. Jones and Salem both missed. for setups and grunt.

    If we are bombing it into our fwd line, why are our forwards always leading to the ball?

    We are on par with Gold Coast hands down.

    Langdon has actually been decent, his basic accumulation disposals (short kicks, handballs) have mostly been good but it’s the penetrating danger kicks that have let him (and us down). 

    Petracca has flashed in and out, similar to previous seasons. I think he needs to be pushing forward more though. 

    Gawn’s been well beaten by NikNat. 

    Brayshaw extremely disappointing. Needed to nail at least one of his kicks on goal.

    Figuring this out just now loges?

    Was prepared to give benefit of the doubt until this year, there were other issues last year but all the structural issues haven't been addressed. I'm not one who likes to bag the club ad nauseam

    CB we are only a few hours into the lock down and your already feeling a tad NQR i see! (Ss*)

    No way, this game is making me feel great!

    2 more months to work on our shortcomings, because we obviously haven’t addressed them in the previous 6 months.

    If you can’t use the ball in today’s footy you get belted. We have 15 years of this problem. 
    Disposal skill is nearly the most important element of the game. Look at Hibberd turned over every single possession. 
    We are the worst disposal side in the AFL on the games this week.

    Goodwin should be telling the players this is your last hit out for ten weeks, how do you want do go into this period?

    This isn't just the cattle. Structurally we are awful. Goodwin is a 90s footballer with a 90s gameplan. We peaked during a patch in 2018. He's lucky the season is postponed. Regardless of the season outcome he'll probably coach in 2021. But we see the same issues.

    I agree. I have watched every game and our skills are hopeless.  Our transition is nowhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
