joeboy

Recommended Posts

Gawn - dominated without advantaging

Viney - relentless and dynamic

Oliver - outstanding but rushed

Petracca - couldn’t maintain performance 

Salem - didn’t impose enough

Langdon - kicking below par

Jones - not a wingman

May - a powerful performance 

Melksham - took his chances

Lever - tight and reliable

Harmes - performance from hell

Lockhart - looked totally lost

Hibberd - great first half

Bennell - a liability today

Brayshaw - continued disappointing season

Weideman - promising but amateurish

Fritsch - had no influence

Jackson - some impressive touches

Jetta - brave but expired

McDonald - good until pressured

Hannan - was barely there

Pickett - was a liability

Goal Review System - Cost us dearly.

Yeah, we made a lot of mistakes and so did they but we were out and away when Lever took that mark.

Surely that review takes place while the game goes on and if it's not a mark then they bring it back...

Why are our ratings always so negative  ?? We were playing a top side tonight and with reasonable kicking at goal we would have won !!!!

Yes that hurt and someone has said it was the field umpire who called for the review, not the goalie! Is that true, if so it’s criminal. I will have to watch the replay tomorrow when I have calmed down. So many squandered opportunities with missed set shots and then a number of [censored] umpiring decisions, I need to review again to understand.

Pretty sure it was the goal umpire 'Earl'...either way it shouldn't have happened.

Even when you review you won't understand some of the umpiring decisions...I had a look multiple times at the first Pickett unfair tackle and it was a bump straight in the guts.

15 metre kicks were so inconsistent that even the commentators were joking about it.

You guess is as good as mine on any holding the ball decision, I reckon they toss a coin on that one.

Hocking has stuffed the game...umpires have lost all confidence.

Quite a few decisions against us tonight that were seemingly not unanimous, overruled or just not picked up at all, but we were playing against a Team that has to be given every chance to feature in a packed sell out come GF Time.....

I thought Lockhart was really good tonight, don't nderstand the hate

Agree I like the way Lockhart is going about it. Yes he makes mistakes but he takes the game on and the the way he moves sets up attacking counter attacks. The best thing is he seems to be getting better with every game and I hope he retains his willingness to attack.

Bennell - spotlight too bright

Brayshaw - rocket needs blast

Very harsh on Lockhart. He was actually pretty good tonight. Secured his spot for next week.

Have to agree. Also I was at game and he made some good positions when we had ball and our guys would not kick to him. Strange.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
