And people wonder why I can't stand Harmes..

The bloke deadset thinks he's Dusty.

He’s turned into the ANB of years gone by, always present but never doing anything useful

    2 arsey swans goals from blind Melbourne handballs in the last line of defence.
    But we have to start winning it in the centre or we won't win this match.

    McDonald, Hibberd, May, Oliver, Langdon, Jackson all good this quarter.

    The rest have a long way to go.

    Centre clearances as per footywire...six to one against.

    We should be three goals down.

    My goodness.

    Put Jackson in the ruck. Do anything. That is rediculous.

    Our defense from spillages is average. They are getting goals there, not from set shots.

    We need to tighten up on this.


    ❌ poor disposals to turnovers Harmes Trac Oliver Jordon 

    ❌ Maxy 

    ❌ umps (Kozzy being held all quarter)

    ❌ allow Lloyd and Rampe free across backline 

    ✅ accurate goalkicking

    Beat me to it.

     

    Can’t be this bad at clearances and expect to win. 

    Jordon and Harmes getting plenty of it but turning it over with aplomb. Real problems with both of their decision making. 

    Brown’s leading and follow up work better than last week.

    This is true and poor umpiring.


    They’ve mentioned a few times on the coverage we’ve not had intercept marks which is a big key for us.

    Get Kozzie into the middle for a short stint and let's win a few clearances.  Then forward again to do his best work.

    Back again in short stints when needed

    Some terrible kicks, is there something wrong with the ball


    Cant remember Gawn playing 5 bad quarters in a row. Has he had too much bathwater?

    Brown and McDonald starting to work well together in the space of the G. Loving it.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
