It's the game we need to lose to beat the doggies next week.

I'll show myself the door now.

Signing off for the night.

    The lack of pressure from the mids and high half forwards is the problem more than those missing from the backline. 

    Yes that too. But Crows have also gotten more goals from clearances. I don’t think we got our match ups right. May needs to play high on Walker. 

    It's half time. Take a chill pill. If we don't turn up in the 3rd quarter then I'll be worried. And then there's always the fourth.

    Yep especially in our forward half.  Kozzie & Spargod rarely sighted.  Both having a mare need to get VERY busy in the second half.

    Once again, Lever doesn’t take the simple first option and butchers it.

    They're in his head today.

     

    Getting beat on the outside back line seems to be not gelling tonight. Bombing ball into fwd 50. Just need to reset

    Not enough our small forward pressure players:

    Spargo

    AnB

    Pickett

    Need a ton more from them.

    May be the slump we need to have. Can't see us beating Doggies on current form. It's all good.

    Just remember how much this mob were up against Hawthorn some weeks ago and still ended up losing. Look at how Hawthorn have gone since too. It was level-ish at half time when we played Adelaide last season and we ended up flogging them (even though it wasn’t a real season). Let’s see how we adjust in the second half.

    Their footskills having been really good for a bottom 6 side. Not allowing us to set up our defense.

    If there's any consolation, we played like rubbish in the first half and are level...

    Were we too confident dropping Brown?

    The bombing inside 50 in good weather would actually suit him. He has a great reach. 
     

    I don't think may has been all that great today either. Dropped a sitter not manning up properly and not being as reliable today

    the problem is starting in the middle Our pressure just isn't there. We need to lift because we've allowed the Crows to play their game, they're now up and about and full of confidence. 

    We do like a challenge but if you keep tempting fate eventually you'll come undone.

    100% Some of their youngsters coming through are really good kicks. If the ball is coming through that quick no defence will stop it.

    Considering Adelaide's transition and pace, I think it was the right call. Brown's defensive deficiencies are no secret.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
