Mistake not having one of Brown or Weids in tonight. They are killing us in the air down back.

Yes Mitch Brown would be handy.

    Dominant for little reward. Need runners coming into the forward line for short hit ups if they are going to continue flooding back.

    Fritsch just wants the easy ball over the back or on a lead, doesn't like winning it himself.

    We are running past the ball looking for easy touch

     

    Gawn absolutely pasting the defenders after that Stringer goal. Gave them a spray.

    Nothing to kick to

    Forward targets nowhere

    kicked to a 3v1 just now and missed a target completely earlier. He's out of form.

    That said our forward set-up not working first quarter


    Viney would take a better defender as well

    Lets face it.
    Delivery into the forward line has been garbage for years.
    Lowered the eyes early this year but have reverted back to kicking and hoping.

    should have played one of the browns, that way it would have taken some of the pressure of fritch having one of the best backs on him

    our forwards need to defend more when essendon has the ball and running out of our defense

     

     

    Putting Gawn forward and bomb it in is a better chance of scoring than the current set up.

    Too much room in the zone down back.  When the game's on early we should be placing max pressure on them in our 50.  Instead we're allowing them to pick their way out from the goals at will with ease.

    It rarely works against teams who base their game around skills/run off HB and i don't expect it will work tonight either.

    Another loss looming if Goody &  Co stick with that strat in this 2nd quarter.  They'll be up by 5 or 6 goals at half time if we do.

    Bombers playing counter attack footy. 

    Make the most of our opportunities and we'll OK.

    Get absolutely [censored] Melbourne. Stringer on his own. 
    We are a mess.

    That’s a point


    Getting torched when they go forward. Their midfield are much better kicks

    Operation compact the ladder in full effect.

    How the [censored] can you tell with 3 frames a minute?

    Goal review is a farce.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
