Why not holding the ball again?

It’s a dead set lottery 

 

We sold our future for this defense. GC can just stroll in whenever they like. 5 forward 50 entries by them for 2 goals this quarter. Lucky our midfield is actually working hard, even if it just hacks it up in the air.


Garry Lyon needs to be excommunicated from the club completely

    Holding the ball rule changes from week to week, game to game, quarter to quarter.

    I wish our kicking skills would get excommunicated from the club too.

    Lack of forward pressure has dropped in the last 5 mins. Need to keep that up.

    Why do our players try and take it from the oppositions hands when the ump is about to pay holding the ball!!!???

    Because they don't pay it very often.

    There should be a rule, if our midfielder have nothing on offer, hold onto the ball and draw players until there is something on offer. Just rushed players. If you're going to play chaos ball at least teach your players to hit targets and not just bomb.


    If you ever needed evidence that Clarry needs to find some finesse and finish in the middle...somehow.... that was it.  Had a paddock in front, very little pressure and still manages to kick it into the player's back straight in front of him

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
