Magpies getting done = ?

 

Multiple players out of the GWS Swans game Due to CoVID restrictions. New teams to be released now.

This season is starting to fall apart.

GWS loses Greene, De Boer, Briggs and Stein.

Sydney loses Mills, O'Riordan and Cunningham.

One massive out for each side.


GWS helping the cause of keeping Sydney out of the top 4. Let’s hope they keep it up. We need a few more things to go right after last night’s debacle

I know footy helps ease the pain of lockdown but Fox have done there best to add more pain with the commentary team for the Crows v Eagles game. 

GWS look to be playing a high possession keepings off style like they did against us. Sydney want stoppages and then to burst forward.

My point is that certain game styles do better against certain teams, and helps to explain some of the unusual results. Swans looked great against Dogs last week, GWS looked horrible against Suns. Coaches want flexibility, but some teams are just better built for certain game styles. Pretty interesting season.

 

The umpires just lack any game awareness. Papley is a serial ducker and get rewarded with a free which leads to a goal. Umpires should black book players like Daniher and Papley and assume they are effectively cheating.


I personally feel the Swans best footy is as good as anyone’s and will be super dangerous in the finals. 


GWS remind me of us when we completely fall apart. Cannot stem the tide and quite frankly cannot execute a possession.

Agree with others that Sydney look at good as anyone at the moment. Their offensive game looks better than ours.

Sydney can absolutely go all the way. They are a scary proposition when they’re on and the team most like us in terms of game plan and contested footy. 

whole giants team coming down with covid mid game?

swans kick 9 un-answered goals after being down 34 pts..................wtf


I love watching Sydney.

Such a hard discipline team and well structured line up. Watch the way Parker, Kennedy and Heeney operate around the ground. No Hollywood fans over the tap [censored]. They just get the job down and keep it simple. Oliver, Petracca and Viney are exact the opposite to these guys

They are every chance to win it this year and I hope they do.

Really CB? I really can’t understand why you’d struggle to like a mob that has a profound history of cheating, chronic inter-generational ineptitude and racism, and multiple players being charged with rape. I’m truly flummoxed. 

You forgot about dwarf burning. 

 

Why isn’t Cameron under intense pressure?  
Gifted list, enormous financial subsidies yet struggling to consistently appear in GFs.

not a great result for MFC.

anyway 2.5 games ahead of 5 and 6.

I am thoroughly sick and tired of hearing that results elsewhere are not favorable to MFC when we have the world at our feet and our destiny entirely 100% in our own hands, yet blow games like Hawthorn, Colonwood, Adelaide.  GW$ was, if in isolation, almost excusable and certainly explainable. 

To me our guys still lack any killer instinct or responsibility for their actions, and fall back into thinking that low teams are easy beats - I guess a reasonable thought  process given our recent history, but still totally inexcusable.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
