I thought you were a bit harsh on him but you were right he's not up to it and never will be, sadly we have quite a few that are not up to it.

SpargoĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā back to basics.

LockhartĀ  Ā  Is getting better.

MayĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā did his part.

OscarĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Better than bro.Ā 

HibberdĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā not hard enough.

FritchĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  must kick goals.

PetraccaĀ  Ā  Ā played his role.

OliverĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā look for someone.

GoodwinĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā must be wondering.


I’d love to know what was going on with Oliver andĀ TMac - both of them looked absolutely knackered from the first bounce. They each had the look of someone who has been ill.

To be fair, he was pretty good against the Hawks in the last Marsh series game. Sadly though, the intensity went up another level and he wasn't able to cope.Ā

Agreed, and Max too. They looked physically or mentally tired from the start. Ā I'm curious why?

A measured response joeboy... congrats for not going too hard on a bunch of young men who were cast into an impossible situation!

I think 'impossible' is a bit of a Steven Stretch.Ā  Who was cast into impossible situations?Ā  Travelling teams?Ā  All teams?Ā  Just the MFC?

If Melbourne accepted the Mission Impossible; I guess we can convince ourselves thatĀ West Coast thrived on Mission Improbable.Ā  What we saw in that game was a replica of 2019's standard.

Ā 

As for Joeboy's generosity...and against-all-odds predicaments....

Dom Tyson currently shaking his head, and thinking "didn't I dislocate my knee cap on camp horribilis and continued squatting, jogging, kneeling through incline and decline.Ā  Now that is an impossible situation".

Ā 

Ā 

Joeboy, unlike Dom, I rush to this after every game.Ā  This has always been the modicom of clarity and objectivity on this site.Ā  If this is the new you, you might get more likes, but at the risk of selling your soul.

THE Summary of the 3 word is spot on But it is hard to play in a side that firstly has to counter elite disposal and organisation look again at the First Quarter we just Butchered the Ball and took wrong OptionsĀ  our new Players also need some time to Adjust to our style exception Picket and LangdonĀ 

I would spend the next 8 weeks drilling the players on creating Space backing up another and use of the Ball BETTER one thing the West Coast Juicers have is a System we dont however we canĀ  BY just drilling it in to the players remember we had more use of the BallĀ 

I feel sorry for our Forwards but they too dont lead or organise correctly WCoast can be beaten if it becomes one on one .

Next Game be Daring Play Weidman Jackson Jones and Salem ( all can Kick)and persistĀ  with them dont Play Tomlison on a Wing but down Back he could become elite with Lever and May play Petracca in the middle Oliver on a Flank Harmes as a tagger and Melksham as a defensive Forward Fritsch at FFĀ 

Ā

Kozzzy Pickett

I was super impressed in game number 1. Ā Hope the coaches don’t overthink how he should play. Ā Pressure. Tackle. Crumb. Attack. Kick goals. Ā That’s it Ā !

In 3 words...

love the energy

impressive debut gameĀ 

ignite the flame

Indeed did exceed expectations and can't believe his and Toby'sĀ Ā  goal did not rate in the Goal of the Year.

Toby promising -and not our worst by any means.

Brown too fumblyĀ and couldn't catch a cold Not strong enough in contest.

Langdon Great runner but really needs to uplift decision making to forwards as do most of Dees mids.

Tomlinson Often Ā got caught between The West Coast Speedsters. Let's see over longer period as great vs Hawks in Marsh 2.

Never seen less interest in this thread - reflection on this [censored] of a year not the thread - thanks joeboyĀ

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fieryĀ interaction between Max Gawn and Steven MayĀ at the end of the gameĀ was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
