Gee some of our blokes are slow to react

    We’re giving away some silly frees but equally not getting some big 50/50s. 

     

    Umpires blatantly cheating. We get these duds every week. 


    Disgusting umpiring. This always happens against GWS. They play dirty and the umpires are just rewarding them.

    This is a big test tonight for him, so far he’s failing. 

    He ain’t even trying anymore. 

    I don’t understand the unrealistic attempt rule if that wasn’t a free kick against Bobby Hill.


    Gutless umpire. That was a clear holding the ball.

    This one million times.

    Especially when the ball hits the ground and even more especially when it’s in our forward line.

    Umpiring been pretty rank. Great fight back, Dee's of the past would have rolled over when we went 3 goals down early in the first.

    Hopefully we can run over them in the last half

    Oliver is a petulant child. Lets hope he goes to Collingwood instead of petracca. 

    The umpiring is pathetic.

    GWS simply going harder and blocking any run by creating congestion.  Ugly game

    We know what they are planning to do to win, flood back. Now we need to continue to think it through and get the ball into the hands of Salem to pick through the flood.

    Being absolutely shagged by the umpires. Deadset.

    We are second to the ball every time, no one to blame but ourselves.

    Clear directive re the umps. Can't have AFLWS 0-3.

    We have Cats v Lions umpires. No surprise AFL live child getting a good run. 

     

    Keep smashing the ****bags out of this mob and attrition from injury might get us over the line. 
     

    Skill won’t.

    Also, we don’t understand the new (and excellent) man on the mark rule.

    We are taking kicks from marks and free kicks as if we are locked in certain directions when in reality we can kick any direction without worrying about the man on the mark (if we were smart).

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
