Lever solid? He's been the worst on ground.

Actually watch the game Dub....

Lever has been solid in 1v1s. His spoiling has been particularly good.

His turn over kick before was horrendous and turned the play. 

But for the rest of the game, I'd agree that he's been one of our better contributors.

Disagree.

His turnover cost us a goal, and it was a shocker.

But he hasn't been beaten one on one, taken a few intercept marks and made plenty of important spoils.  Far from our worst.

Melksham and Viney on the other hand...

 

Viney, Fritter, Spargo, ANB, AVB doing very little. Desperately need some/all to lift in 2nd half

They are having a go, i agree. and its a good response, but leaders continually make mad decisions it doesnt help. the 4 in our leadership team have been awful.

Footy is a game of split seconds. Sometimes they just male the wrong decision

They are totally unbelievable!

ABC Grandstand commentary actually asking if the replacement umpire from WA is blind ?

What I want to see us melksham put hus body on the line and show some leadership.

Applies to umpires too

 

The appalling umpiring is enough to drain any hope of getting a 'fair go' on the football field. Especially when you see a thug like Mumford receive free kicks and get away with what the commentators drool over as 'big hits'. ?

Sorry lads I have to disagree. He's been no different Joel Smith tonight in terms of spoiling.


Would swap Weid with May.  I just can't see us kicking a winning score with Weid at FF.  We'll most likely lose anyways.

Time to flip them around and just have Weid defend as best he can across CHB.  Lever to FB.  Hide Smith on a flank.

Lets take it up to them by playing May across CHF and clunk a few marks or bring the ball to ground for Kozzy and Spargs.

We simply must trade Fritta & Melk at years end.  Both go missing for far too long and far too often in matches.

Where's Lockhart gone.  He has to be carrying something surely.  Just can't see how Nev gets a game ahead otherwise.

Such abetter effort tonight so far

Anyone got one of those online defibrillators.

Honestly I don't feel well.

That's probably because I just a couple of glasses labelled "Romsey Manor"

Is that a real winery or one of those fortified jobs?

Just checked the fine print... WARNING- it has chemicals added and "may contain fragments of grape material"

But I love the nutty aroma. Reminds me of the last time my old Dad sprayed Roundup - and forgot the water.

I wish he was here

Go Dees.

Go Hawthorn.

Sorry I get ahead of us there.


ANB crikey

He plays like a millionaire. Doesn’t do the basics anymore which is what he did so well in his debut season. Has put his feet up after signing a contract. 

We need to sign players up on shorter deals and keep them driven to excel.

Ling you are a dead set [censored]. [censored] off and don’t come back. [censored]. 


ANB then with a soft piece of play.  Jumped up then packed his pants and handpassed it to no one.

ABOUT BLOODY TIME

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
