Greene destroying Hibbo, getting smashed on the outside, Viney missing kicks.

We are lazy.

We lost this at selection.

Our fwd line has been struggling for weeks and we arrogantly do nothing about it.

    We have to win the ball at the contest. Our plan to win it back in 50 is killing us around the contest.

    You get the feeling this will be an absolute belting. Not great for a hangover. Might take the arvo off and check in later.

    Have we been 25 points down at any point this year?


    I won’t discuss implications for the season. Just this game. But we need to pull our finger out at clearances. They are getting a flood of forward 50’s.

    No one flies for a mark and Davis takes it surrounded by 4 dees players. 
     

    We are super lazy today and this game is about to getaway from us in a biiiiiiiiig way.

    Nah, the fact we are in this position shows we are pretenders.


    Predictable rubbish down the flanks every flaming time kick it

    Going to get a good old belting today. Just not top 2 or top 4 material for that matter. Yes defence is great but we are really poor in attacking. 
     

    remember the Giants have many starting 22 injuries while we are just about full squad.

    Why the [censored] did marghetts stop the GWS player. It’s not for him to instruct players to avoid a further penalty. 


    We're being shown up by the Giants, a team beaten by the Hawks. For any one who has chosen to deny we've been on the slide for a while, here's some proof. We've found some ways to win some games, which is ok, but largely we've struggled, particularly against poor opponents, and this is yet another example. 

    Even if we find a way to win this, these half game brain fades just give teams unnecessary look ins for games. 

    This is embarrassing.

    Good call. Game over now.

    Last week bombers weren't  good enough. Gws are class and we're a 5 to 8th team.  Selection forward strategy non existent.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
