Melksham and mcdonald letting us down

Well some absolute cracker jack stuff i've managed to pull out here.  Keeping in mind i take responsibility for none of these choices other than (maybe) the Wolf Blass yellow label during a moment of weakness?

1.  The renowned well aged 2017 "Frame Story" shiraz.   It at least states "wine of Australia" on the front so i'm reasonably confident it isn't an assassination attempt from the CCP or Kim il Jong.  Regardless i feel i could still end up 6 foot under cracking this one.

2.  A 2016 De Bertoli Siiraz - Grenache.  A tad more confident but still in it's infancy.

3.  A 2013 Wolf Blass Grey Label Shiraz.   Passable?

4.  A 2010 Wolf Blass Yellow Label.  As above?

Over to you!

Try the Grey label and throw the rest out!

If , however, we blow this lead, drink the lot

    Our tackling is a bit soft. Need to improve that. McDonald is trash.

    Fritsch is there to kick goals because he doesn't do much else

    Great start outside of the kicking for goal.  We have been all over them and look the better side.

    One thing that has been good is our efficiency inside 50.  We have looked dangerous every time it had gone in there.

    Tom Mcdonald is a nice kid but he's finished as an AFL player. Jones likewise.

    Go away McDonald and Jones, they are either not fit or passed it

    Why he keeps picking them I do not Know

    Tmac is poison at the moment, what's up with him?

    We gotta clean up these fumbles and Hollywood handballs.

    Big chance here. Just need to believe we can polish off our work and not be wimps in front of goal as always.

     

    Tmac is not afl standard. Has the turning circle of the Queen Mary and is avoiding contact

    Should be 5 goals plus.

    Sounding like a broken record but T Mac. Just wow. His clumsiness is so costly..

    We will probably regret that last 6 minutes

     

    We were all over them up to then

    Embarrassing to watch McDonald play. He moves in slow motion. It’s just so frustrating. 
    Melksham another player who is only getting a game coz he’s besties with Goodwin. Hannan gets dropped for doing about as much as Melksham every week.

    His play on the forward flank after Pickett booted the ball forward was cringeworthy.  He actually beat Moore to the ball and just put one hand out, as if he didn't want the contact.  He could have taken possession and made something of it.  It was terribly soft and reflective of where he is at as a footballer.

    We should be further in front. Really should have kicked 4 or 5 goals, Fritsch should have nailed his and the one where TMac had a snap we should have found a goal too.

    vandenBerg has already turned it over two or three times.

    TMac genuinely looks done.

    Petracca's having a poor game so far.

    Oliver dominant, Brayshaw playing well, defence holding up pretty well.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
