1st quarter 

- winning the footy but disposal poor 

- overhandballing still

✅ Harmes on ball (good)

✅ Petracca getting it done. 14 possessions 

- missed tackles are costing us goals 

✅ Pickett is a beauty. Skills. Pace. How’s the leap !!

Oliver’s handball to Gawn then is why he will never be a great player. He chooses terrible options time and time again. He has got worse since he started.

He is too Manic, once he has the ball.   he has to be composed once he wins ball.

    Mix of very good and very poor.

    Intensity was there for 12 minutes.

    Fritta is playing up the ground.

    Salem is cracking in.

    Ball use a couple of times excellent.

    Petracca.

    Bad: Gawn and Tomlinson vying for WoG.

     

    That was an enjoyable quarter of footy. 


    Good Lord I hope bennell gets fit soon. We need his kicking skills more than we need competitive beasts. 

    Am I right in thinking Bedford is a a good kick? If so I'd put him straight in.

    We work so hard for so little result. But we kickec two great goals through agaggresse kicks. I hope they keep it up. Rather lose attacking then lose in a scrappy game of rugby

    Doing well.  Tracc on fire.  We dont ALWAYS have to take the game straight through the middle.  Yes if its there....bit if outlets are closed you are allowed to go laterally or backwards to maintain possession / hold the play up.

    Some cleaner / smarter ball use in the clinches and we're a chance here.

    Great mark by TMac earlier too. 

    He needs to clunk more of those in front of the goals.

    Steven May would want to do something soon. Getting smashed again. Worried we've made a monumental blunder here. Try him forward, Tmac back

    They look and play remarkably similarly. But Hunt’s hair is much more luxurious. Langdon wishes he had Hunt’s hair. 

    It's all in the Nippy's

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
