NON MFC: Round 11


Whispering_Jack

Recommended Posts

less game time is definitely keeping things exciting for longer, and there's been some cracking games - gimme a close game over a blowout any day (unless it's us doing the blowing out!)

if witherden really is available i would hope we'd be keen

mcluggage is a gun; amazing that mcgrath and taranto went ahead of him; both good players but mcluggage is a pearler

Didn't get a chance to watch the Tiges/Port game but listened to a fair bit of it.  Sounded like it was a cracker of a match.

But how would have our team have measured up against either team?

At our best, we might have challenged Richmond.

We would have lost easily to both teams.

I think Port played far better last night than versus us.

We don’t have the ability to maintain intensity and focus for a whole game like Richmond and Port did. I think we would have given up an classic 4-5 goal early lead and maybe come out even for the remainder of the match.

Think both teams beat us by 5 goals + on last nights performance

If Port had kicked straight would have been an easy win for them. It looks to me that Richmond is beatable. Got back in the game 3 free kicks for goals shouldnt have been a close game

Agree... media are talking up the game which I suppose can be justified in the lead swings but really Port should have won by ten goals.

Hardwick's coaching was nothing spectacular. Should have slowed down the game and used his key forwards better.The fast game favours Martin so I suppose it's a trade off issue

West Coast are playing like they just had to show up for the points. They are paying the price for it so will wait and see what happens after 1/2 time.

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
