GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs North Melbourne

[deebug 1,754]

Poor Adam?fingers crossed its not bad?

[WA Demon Boy 966]

We started the Hawks game like this 

Let's hope we break them open in the 2nd qtr 

[Mickey 4,752]

We are so far off it, it's not funny. Still only 5 points down.

Baker is a poor footballer.

[layzie 34,148]

Not working hard enough at all. Getting schooled in the uncontested 82 to 46. Need a rocket up the pants 

[Jaded No More 68,974]

Doubling us in uncontested possessions. Absolutely inexcusable. 
Total lazy rubbish. Too many players ball watching. Fritta our only winner. 
Gawn and Oliver properly drinking it up. 

[Cassiew 1,903]

We are being outplayed, outmatched, outmarked snd outsmarted by the bottom team. This is ridiculous. Pull your head in dees ?

North have been starting games well and it's unsurprising they're giving us some cheek.  However, there's only a goal in it and I'm confident we'll still win and win well.

Shame about Thommo.  Come on down, Harry Petty.

Isn't he out injured as well?  Maybe get White on the list (again)!

Baker too one dimensional, plain and simple 

Has not been good.

Poor Harmes.

[Jaded No More 68,974]

Watching Tomlinson is breaking my heart. It’s just so so awful. 

[Mr Steve 3,820]

North have done this most game this season but fallen away in the second half. Still we look a bit off.

North have started several games well this year. The trend is they always drop off in the second half.

No need for panic.

Yet.

Based on the quality of the teams we should be six goals up by now.

[Lil_red_fire_engine 11,262]

Injuries you cant control. Work rate and intensity you can. Not much else to be said.

[Kick_It_To_Pickett 3,293]

The midfield look lazy af. Tackling is down. 

[McQueen 17,867]

Well that was borderline embarrassing. 
 

Midfield getting spanked. 

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Finally someone decided to tackle Cunnington, what a novel idea!

[Jaded No More 68,974]

Melksham tagging Zeibel? If so, he’s doing a terrible job.

Petty was named as an emergency for this game, so it seems like he's ok to go.

[Wilson7 2,688]

Missing Viney big time

[Jaded No More 68,974]

Gawn has got to get his [censored] together. You’re the captain. Stand up. 

[Lord Travis 10,763]

Very lazy today and playing like trash, yet still only a few points down. Once we get going we should get well on top.

Sidenote, Baker is not up to it. Doesn’t ha e the smarts, skills or stamina on the wing or in the middle. Only chance left to save his career is as a pressure forward IMO. His only good game at afl level thus far was when he kicked a few ripping goals. 

[dees189227 12,441]

Ok this start doesn't surprise me. But Christ we need to lift. 

Shattered for Tomlinson. 

We need to start manning up on them. The uncontested count is disgraceful. 

Lift Melbourne

[Demonland 73,266]

Can we hit a target?

[Gunna’s 2,104]

Umpires continue to make strange decisions. Missing a lot

[The Swimming Dee 1,907]

Baker reminds me of Toumpas
