Our forwards have no clue when the ball is coming in....they dont know where to go

Could have used Kossie crumbing today.

    Defence at stoppage is such a joke.  Any chance Viney could touch the ball? Is Nate Jones playing - he's been attrocious.  Can Melksham actually tackle in the forward half? OMAC believe it or not has applied more pressure in that quarter than any of our forwards (bar Spargo).

    This is the stuff that just kills you as a supporter. 

     

    We made 4 changes to Sydney's one and they look 100 times fresher than us. What a joke.

    Why were we not allowed to travel up yesterday? Had to wait for Freo so not even a direct flight from Maroochydore. 5 hours travel on game day.

    We look like we've been on the bucket bongs

    Easy peasy

    wind has dropped substantially from the first quarter

    We are carrying some done/terrible players. 

    How are we meant to stand a chance with omac, Smith, Jones, ANB and wagner in the team? 

    Goody really has no clue 

    Absolutely. Smith is a very bad player, a very bad player

    I know I'm totally up for 2 hours of elite athletic performance after 5 hours of flights and airport transfers. 

    Not Weeds fault the chsotic entry would kill any forward

    34 to 26 inside 50 to our advantage. Can we please get a solid full forward the can kick 3  a game. Ill chip in 100 bucks.

    I keep chipping in heaps of bucks but it seems this club keeps using my money to buy potato seeds. I'd love a solid, reliable FF.

    Club effort.

    Poor selection. Poor game plan. Poor preparation. Poor effort. Poor execution. Port team work. Poor leadership. 

     

     

    Poor supporters following this crap.

    Consolidate a place in the 8? No, drop the game and watch the season disappear.

    So so so so so so Melbourne-like

     


    we are not out of it.  if they can pull themselves together and kick straight, preferably straight to our own players and the goals then we may have a chance we have had a good record in last quarters, lets hope that repeats. i dont understand why our players do not man up. we had the wind and we let them chip it around and waste our wind advantage. hopefully the umpire will start to pay some of the many holding the mans against viney that are going unnoticed at the moment.

    That’s a bad umpiring call. Florent ran 30mtrs without bouncing but Tomlinson handballs without going direct over the line but is called. 

    Florent bounced it twice, so no.

    Tomlinson, yes

    Like Goodwin just said "They have a choice to make"

    Lets see how badly we want this.

    MFC syndrome says no.

    Guess they made their choice. They want an early finish to the year.

    Our kicking into the forward line has been deplorable, as it has been most of the year. Unwatchable really. Langdon great quarter.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
