Gorgoroth 13,220 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 I’m going to play positive/negative Positive: Rivers, Negative: Smiths flying for all the marks P: Petracca, N: no leaders standing up when the heat is on P: a win, N: Goodwins ability to make moves in game P: Bennell got through, N: our continual wish to not run both ways P: that Goodwin isn’t the right coach, N: Goodwin is our coach P: I hate Carlton and [censored] them! 1 Quote
drdrake 3,203 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Went from attacking fast football to trying not to lose, what a disgrace Quote
Nelo 813 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 I didn’t get to see the game today. Do I bother watching a replay? Quote
Drunkn167 5,093 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 How did we lose 3 quarters of football and still manage to win? That was infuriating 5 Quote

Has kicked 1.6 to start the season. Really needs to work on his accuracy If he’s going to make it as a genuine player in this league. Melksham needs a rocket in him or else he’ll be kicking off the dew Hibberd. Another unsatisfying win. Move him to half back. Better player there. 1 1 3 Quote

They should be ashamed of that capitulation no matter the result. it’s going to be a long long year. Well, long mentally I assume you mean ? 1 Quote
layzie 34,528 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 COVID has done nothing to change the order of the world. The Dees can still fluff a lead and have you reaching for the life support. 2 1 Quote

olisik 4,060 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Today re-affirms Goodwin isn’t a match day coach. Our rolls-Royce list ran circles around Carlton at the start, as soon as Teague made some changes to mitigate our team, Goodwin didn’t do a thing to re-turn things around again and sat on his hands. 10 Quote
Soidee 1,496 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 I can never sit down and enjoy watching my club. I said to my wife after the first quarter watch them collapse now! Hollow feeling, no confidence nor trust again. 17 1 Quote
WERRIDEE 5,643 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 That was a relief. That was a disgraceful last quarter. Too conservative, too complacent. We are still mentally weak. Jones should retire. McDonald has to go down back and Smith forward. Gawn, Petracca and Oliver were fantastic. 2 Quote
nosoupforme 3,085 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) Joel Smith he won us the game what a great be player better than Oscar .......................I have come to my senses. Joel Smith PLEASEEEEEEE go back to Basketball because you have no clue.. ............And the the one's that rate him you are only stirring that he can play. I GET YOU NOW. You only sucked in yourselves. WON'T PLAY NEXT WEEK I AM CONFIDENT OF THAT OR ANY OTHER WEEK. I AM HOPING. So help me G d. I don't need to elaborate if you watched the game.

Dee Zephyr 19,330 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Lol, unreal return to the footy. Likes for now.....Bennell looked like he got through ok. Trac is just a beast, would’ve lost without him I think. Rivers although not the same type as Whelan just looked like he belonged immediately. Reminded me of Wrecker’s debut. He might even get some votes. Good to see Hunt amongst the goals. Some of our boys looked dirty after the game 6 Quote

P-man 13,367 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 The game got summed up perfectly by the team song being done without the captain and having to start over. 1 Quote

We have serious issues as long as goodwin is our coach Reckon I know at least one that's very happy. Doing laps of the living room on his scooter as we speak. 5 Quote
loges 6,767 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Have to be one of the worst wins ever. Reminded me of 10 years ago when as soon as the pressure came on we go into our shells. Where was our so called fitness, where did the tackling go after quarter time, so many questions not many answers. How many players faded out after first quarter, you could just go on and on. After that effort looks like last year was no aberration. 1 1 Quote
dazzledavey36 56,395 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Our forward line is an absolute shambolic . What use to be one of our great strengths has now been gutted and turned to [censored]. 3 Quote
Bring-Back-Powell 15,569 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Melbourne don’t win that game without Petracca - Jason Dunstall on fox footy. Hats off to Petracca on a magnificent performance. He’s approaching gun status. 12 Quote

JTR 2,910 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 To go from 42 points up and on fire to meekly limping over the line is certainly cause for serious concern, but I'm gonna reserve judgement till after next week. First game back after 13 weeks off in isolation and prior to that having played just one game in anger since last season isn't exactly a normal situation. I'm gonna call it rust. Very bad rust 3 1 1 Quote
Buzzy 992 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Personally, I think we owe Smith another game after what the club did to him last year. He hasn't played in 18 months and will be better for the run. Has clearly more upside than Omac. None of the talls played well today. 1 Quote
640MD 3,570 Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 I would really like Goodwin to get as upset as I was in that second half. he shows stuff all interest in a winning result, that second half was 2019 all over again bar the last minute or so. I will have no hair if this happens again Quote
