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.

    Gawn is clunking them. Move him forward and put LJ into the ruck.

    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.

    • 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

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
