Clarry petulant -  need to just concentrate on ball in clearances.

Fritsh -  needs to lead harder and faster and get physical

Sparrow -  2 touches...... lift son! 

TMac -  get some separation and create space for orhers.

Umpires  -  Jesus wept....

    Nibbler is nigh on our best so far. 
    need to get the ballin Salem’s hands more this half and FFS open the f50 up.


    Jetta needs to contribute more. Especially tackling.

    Langdon is super reliable and good signs from Gus.

    Putting this here for future reference.

    If history is any indication.
    GWS coming off 2 losses with 2 players down.
    They'll get us.
    'Cause that's how we roll.

    Also if Max is going to play forward (since his kicking suspect anyway) why not having him play as a decoy. Lead to pockets to create space for others to lead into. He has to do more.

    One of my biggest worries right now is that the team will assume it will just happen with GWS down so many players. If I was one of the coaches I would challenge the players to show us we would’ve beaten them even if we were the ones down of rotations. 

    This quarter is big, we power on here then I can see us running away with it. If they keep it close and scrappy then they are a big chance to have a “season defining” win.

    ANB has had a good season. He still lacks composure under pressure though and a lot of his touches are kick and pray.

    We have our defence sorted. Most of the 2nd Q the Giants couldn’t get past half way. 

    Davis and Cognilio done. 

    we should grind out a win fairly easily. 


    Fritsch the Cat again!


    Couple of observations.

    That blonde umpire has ruined the game.

    Gus and Jacko playing well.

    Forward line is not looking flash.

    GWS are excellent defensively.

    +1 on the blonde #22 umpire. He’s no good. 

     

    Langdon and Hunt run out of defense when it happens is so good.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
