    As shaky a defensive effort. I’m calling it, we will get rolled!!

     

    And people don’t think we should call Clarkson. The man is a genius. Getting out coached and out played badly.

    Hibbo. NFI

    3rd quarter

    Dees pathetic effort against bottom team Again !!! 

    X bombing to packs in fwd 50 

    x no leads 

    x Hawks leading in fwd zone 

    x Hawks winning contested footy

    x Vandenburg and Viney cannot hit a target 

    X Trac handballs to no one. Handballs to Jackson surrounded by 3 Hawks. 
    x ball watching. Gawn.

    x out tackled 
    x kicking for goal. Pathetic. 

    nine negatives  

    zero positives

    Just now, leave it to deever said:

    Its bizarre we can beat every side in the eight but struggle only to bottom teams.

    We have sloppy skills, and don't stick tackles

    We're susceptible to a dog fight, but our structure holds up against class

    You can tell when we're off. Double grabbing loose balls and inviting pressure. Slow predictable ball movement. So frustrating to watch.

    % now back below Geelong.

    Any team with heart and character would have boosted their % by 10 tonight, but, no ... will be bloody lucky to even get over the lien

    Hawthorn players are just free. 6 more scoring shots. Those early misses might cost us. 

    Top teams put away these bottom teams.

    Melbourne have always had this attitude of coasting against lower teams & think it will just happen


    Boooooooooooooooo

     

    Hawthorn are out working us pure and simple. But my god umpiring that 50 set a standard. Hawthorn player ran into one of our who marked and nothing.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
