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. 

Agreed not even close to top 4 at the moment and with a tough run home I think we are done, no doubt we finish 5th and cop a belting from the tigers

Disgusting performance. Viney has been very poor and absolutely no forward line thanks to the selectors.

Viney not up to it. But hes not alone.

If we dont work out our fwd line soon we will be lucky to be top four.

But its not like nobody has not been saying this which makes it so frustrating.

 

Edited by leave it to deever

Statistically we're not doing too badly.

How we *look* is a different story. TMacs checkside kick from 50 out preceded three GWS goals. Our pressure is very poor. But we are defending okay.

Not out of reach. Unlikely, but not impossible. Let's back them in. Our Brisbane game looked ominous at half time.

What are we doing at training that results in this crap on game day?

Sculling bathwater.

    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. 

    Its a pretty even comp as we all know there are no easy games and when your not on 100% you will be punished 

    Hopefully second half is a very different story 

    Reality bus is never far away

    WTF was that from Harmes??

    I would applaud anyone who takes out that [censored] stain of a human Mumford. 

    Lazy performance from our midfielders, and terrible non-Brown selection by the coaching panel has us in a situation where we just cannot score, regardless of how good our defensive running, structure and personnel are.

    How about we put Max forward 80/20 and Jacko rucks 80/20.

    Coz boy it ain’t working at the minute

    This. Its not rocket science.

    I’ve counted 6 free kicks directly from the Centre bounce to the Giants.

    Max is preyed upon from the umpires. They actively look for the straight arm. 
    mids need to pull finger out and take front position. Frees and clearances will then follow. 

    3 goals a half.    Good footy !!

    Oh. DR.D, you're so negative. Pull your heads in you biased know it alls! The players are playing the way you think. We've lost to Adelaide, Collingwood and now GWS. Say Goodbye to top 4 officially. 

    Poor max he has tried to do everything, he's tacking, getting back in defence getting battered from pillar to post.  Someone help him. He can't do everything


    I don’t understand those begging for Brown. He’d be getting nowhere near it, because we are continually losing the ball at the coal face. Even it up at the contest and then we can see what our forward line looks like.

    Putrid first half. 
    We have lost all our systems and confidence from earlier in the season. 
    can be turned around, but why has it happened 

    Huge Half time for Goodwin

    Still cannot believe Sideshow is not playing

    Harmes is not a smart player.

    Yep, that is why his only spot is  a defensive midfielder.  Needs a run with role.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
