GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Hawthorn

[leave it to deever 17,511]

Just looked our marking numbers this year. I know we are a game behind but our total marks for the year is the lowest.

 Not good.

[Tarax Club 3,884]

With growing confidence from last week's performance, expect Demons to authoritatively take on Hawks.

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Dees by five goals.

Jackson to surprise with 2 goals.

Weid to kick 3.

We will keep the Hawks to no more than six goals.

Yes, I'm probably partially drunk.  Maybe.

Goodwin just said in his pre-match interview that we're expecting Hawthorn to play faster today.

Let's hope he's right and they don't go the Geelong-style slow chip kick game.

Not sure of relevance. We're 13th for marks per game (higher than our opponent today).

Clarkson's MO is to let the 1st qtr unfold see what the op set ups are.  Move chess pieces around at qtr time.  Let 2nd qtr unfold.  Make more moves at half time.

Beware the coach that is not paying attention or is slow to react to Clarkson's moves.

All on our coaching box today.

I couldn't watch a Melbourne game only partially drunk.

Gus laziest one way runner in the side

[layzie 33,750]

And Gunston gets his radar back instantly!

[WA Demon Boy 966]

too easy ffs 

[Wiseblood 24,637]

You know how that goal came about?

Brayshaw went to sleep on the wing.  His player ran forward, got the ball and then had an eternity to hit Gunston on the chest.

Not good enough.

[praha 11,234]

lol Oliver ffs.

[Demonland 71,438]

Oliver’s disposal by foot is atrocious at times. 

[praha 11,234]

Weiderman needed to clunk that. He looks like Jake Spencer sometimes in contests.

[whatwhat say what 22,684]

 our zone ain't working already - they're chipping to loose men continuously

[leave it to deever 17,511]

Tx umps for your moronic play on calls.

Never looked like it.

It's a shame as the effort from Pickett was terrific.

What do you mean at times.

[Devil In Disguise 2,278]

Soft free

[praha 11,234]

Oouff. Their pacing and spread is killing us.

[WA Demon Boy 966]

need to be cleaner - we hurt ourselves 

[Demonland 71,438]

Harley is a great kick. 

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Super kick out from May and great disposal from Bennell.  Exciting stuff.
