What's the bet our useless coach doesn't even review this tripe

 

Great goal Oscar

 

Our forward line is rat****. 

Pickett looks flashy, but ultimately is a non-contributor. Offers little offensively and defensively.

Jackson isn’t a forward.

Weid can’t handle wrestling with big defenders.

TMac is slower and less agile than my grandmother.

Fritsch is a specialist at shanking his kicks.

Melksham doesn’t rock up half the time.

Possibly the worst forward line since Brad Miller lead players like Pettard and Dawes into battle.

That is just comedy gold!

 

Guys i got home late.  Thought chanel 70 was on series tag.  Wait ....no recording as my series tag for AFL was too low down the pecking order.  Arghh....wot to do.  Wait i got Kayo yippee!

So i sit down with dins and a cold ale hoping to at least witness a hard fought contest with a team that's eager to improve.

Now i have no idea what's happened.  I have not read one post on here and i don't know the result.  However, i just had the unfortunate experience of watching one of the most undisciplined bunch of rabble attempt to play something resembling AFL footy i have ever seen.  Easily rates up there as a top 50 or so i think and ive seen some horrors watching this mob.

All rookies excused.  The rest who have 70 plus games or more, apart from a few try hards, well words escape me.  Abomination?

So i head into the 2nd  hoping for the best but expecting more of the same.  We don't even look like scoring a goal at this point with one rushed kick from a defender (Lockhart...who actually wasn't too bad that quarter) and a bog ordinary nothing kick from Clarry into the post after the siren.

Could it get worse?  Yes it could.  If we keep playing at that sub standard we'll be lucky if any networks will even bother with us from here.  Who the hec would want to watch this rubbish.  Very hard to polish a turd i'm afraid.

And it all started with a wet behind the ears Georgiardio easily losing Oscar as Port brought it through the middle, taking a simple overhead, and kicking truly.  His bro, lead foot Tom, aint helping one bit so far.  And Harmes!??  What the hell's going on there?  Chunk doing his usual get ball ...turn ball over immediately through the middle trick.  

We almost look like we've raised the white flag from the get go.

I hope i'm proven wrong.  Off to watch the 2nd.  Oh what joy.

Oh get [censored] Fritsch! Absolute [censored] himself then

9 years ago to the day we put in a gutless effort like this. Really, not a lot seems to have changed bar the fact we apparently have more 'talent'.

 

 

How the [censored] didn’t the goal umpire see that. He was 20cm from it

Just now, Bates Mate said:

Can't remember there last time I've done it even in the dark Neeld years but I'm turning off just making me angry. I don't need this s*$@t

Honestly, the best way to deal with this is to not care about it.

I wonder if the bloke running the place understands just how dangerous it would be for the clubs future if other long term members took a similar view?


Putrid lack of effort from OMac there

[censored] that goal umpire needs a new job... I wonder if he can coach?

Amazing how this club can ruin my weekend and it not even be Friday yet

Its thoughtful of the lads to save you time though.

Fritch & Omac backline synergy - BRILLIANT


Nothing like paying 2 first rounders and 750k a year for an OMac clone

Lol Pickett, does nothing but give away frees. Cant believe we've likely essentially paid more than pick 1 for him.

He’s a tiny peanut. Overrated on this site so far. Let’s hope he improves. Looks like a poor man’s JKH at this stage.


WTF is Langdon doing?  HE sees the turnover on our HF line and for some idiotic reason every single time he starts stalking forwards towards the ball carrier and leaves his man wide open on the wing.  How many times have they gone over his head tonight? 

 

We only seem to win when max takes at least 10 marks.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
