AFLW: Rd 05 vs Collingwood

Stinear still coaching the same as 2 years ago. Stop the handball and short kicks.!!! The girls can kick far enough today. 

Doggies last week and Pies today just play long direct football. We play short sideways garbage that is so laborious. 

 

Under pressure, only Hanks and Paxman and possibly Lily M & Kate H can reliably execute skill.  Pies seemingly have a strong blend of girls who can kick well and with distance.   Of our defenders, no one can really hit a target in comparison to Collingwood.  This needs to be a focus for 2022 recruitment. 
Quite a few quiet girls today, Heath, Paxy, Mithen and Parry has been unsighted since her 3 goals against North. Zanker and Bannan need to do something in the second half.  Low expectations, there was little to enthuse and Pies are playing so well.

 

What gets me is the decision making. It is really poor.

 

Wow a goal after 4 behinds. We could have been right back in this.

1.6. 12 to 4.4 28.

 

Well, that was a better quarter.  McNamara stood out.  A proper little fighter there for sure.

But the shots... the shots...

 

Into the wind 3 goals are highly unlikely. 

Again our kicking was poor. Make no mistake the filth were asleep that quarter.


Geez Macnamara fought hard that quarter. Great defensive pressure on that far forward flank

Why couldn't we play like that in the first half (goalkicking notwithstanding)?

Bloody Cunningham just before the siren, your a full forward, you mark and go back for a shot.  Thats your only job!

This performance was pathetic. The worst we’ve played ever in AFLW. There is a lack of skill and class at both ends of the ground. The midfield is weak. It’s pretty sad to see how this team has deteriorated. 


Oh for... yeah, not good enough.  The moment we try to be cautious we bugger it up.

We have a lot of players out there who are a lot better than this and I've lost confidence in Stinear.

Low confidence, poor skills and little game awareness in the majority of this group.

Daisy has been terrible and was last week too. Playing her in defence is wrong too. Midfield or nowhere.

Same old forward entry and delivery Faults  and goal kicking mistakes.
 

Missing Petrevski after 2 games no scouters !!


I think it is now time to realise that the coach just isn't up to it. This short kicking and handballing game will not work against a decent opponent.

Appears to me that we are a bit soft. Dogs roughed us up and now pies and we can't handle it. Every team now will go at us hard and look for us to roll over which is happening here and last week.

Looked like grown women playing girls today. Cunningham too much difference between best and worst, need a full forward who's a lot more dynamic.

This was Mick's big gamble and 5 th or 6 th shouldn't save him after 5 years of forward frustration. 

 

You can’t have your captain shanking kicks. She needs to handball more coz it rips the momentum apart
 

2 goals 18 carrying on from last week. Pathetic. The pies almost stopped in The 3rd and we still couldn’t score 

When you do the basics right, you give yourself a chance.  When you don't, you give yourself no chance.  That just about sums it up.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
