Toss in the winning tattslotto numbers too!

 

Metricon with four games over the weekend.

Will be interesting to see how the surface holds up.

15mm predicted for Sunday and 45-60mm for Monday...lucky that wasn't Saturday and Sunday !

Cats and Pies for the first two matches


Say whatever you want about our man Dan but he’s not only leading the tipsters, he also picked 11 winners last week from just 9 games.05C3EF0D-E273-4CDD-8E75-46F2C36F7E79.thumb.jpeg.dc9e108626e2755eebcb29a04116cf02.jpeg

 

Never seen a team whinge more to the umpire and beg for frees than the Cats. Actually sickening.


Cats showing that kicking skills reign supreme. They barely handball, always looking for short kick options.

Interestingly 4 of the top 5 teams have the lowest play on percentage. They mark, stop and create uncontested marking chains with short kicks.
Conversely we have the highest play on percentage in the league and are the worst team in the league over the last 18 months. Basically proof our gameplan is completely wrong and we need to slow down and hit a [censored] target.

don't watch the hawks much?

This mob mentor them. I think they asked for a free at halftime.

Sadly that was a very good quarter of footy from Geelong, there leaders all standing up. 


9 goals in a row and they were playing ring a ring a rosie against us. They are making the Lions look like pretenders.

It sound like I've been on the whaky tabaki but if we make the necessary adjustments and clean our foot skills up we arent that far off.

Remember seeing a stat here last week. The team sitting second on the ladder has not won a game in 2020. The curse continues.

May be we weren't bad, just Geelong are very good.(i just threw up in my mouth).

Lions would be much better if they had any decent tall forwards.  Hipwood and McStay are very average.  If you keep Cameron quiet then you go a long way to beating them.

We have actually played some decent teams to kick off the year.  It's no excuse in terms of our skills and so forth, but I agree that if we can fix up the skills enough then we'll win more than we lose.

Except for the afternoon Hipwood kicked 5 goals either side of 3 qtr time last year against us....grr!

Brisbane swithced off after 1/2 time and that was it.

But are skills something that can just be “fixed up” or do skills = say natural ability that can’t be improved?

I honestly feel like we are the confidence building team. Teams comes up against us, the players in the middle give them enough of a tough run to make them compete hard but our skills and decision making is so bad that the other team ends up getting the win. They go on with confidence and play better, while we continue our trajectory of going nowhere.

You watch Richmond will hit some form now.

    Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
