The Matilda’s game is enthralling. Great match so far.

 

...and Matildas score in extra time...!! 3-2!

It’s as if the Matildas are playing the Bulldogs, given that garbage penalty. 


4-2!!! Unbelievable.

People reckon Ratten will last the year?

solid list and just show no fight and horrible skills.

Anyone know what Taylor saw in Weideman to justify picking him over Harry McKay?

I guess he didn’t have a crystal ball. 
 

And any chance we will analyze Carlscum’s goal kicking tonight, and have some “learnings”?

I’ve really rated him over the years. Something stinks about them this year, but the same could have been said about us in 2019.

The difference is we traded well after 18 and got some spine about us. They don’t have any structure, and spent money on midfielders who haven’t delivered.

I reckon the difference is they don’t have quality at the back.
Their lack of skills and gameplan has to come back to coaching though

Most of Carlton’s set shots have been elementary and Walsh has snapped a few beautys. McKay snagged a set shot from outside 50 on the flank that none of our blokes could pull off.

Meanwhile we take all our set shots from sharp angles.

Carlton showing if you kick straight what can happen. Makes a big difference. Maybe just maybe the players are playing for Teague. 

Can you imagine we had McKay in our side.. As good as JT has picked recruits that is one monumental misjudgement. In fairness it is difficult to pick a KPF.

I just spent 2 minutes Googling 2015 AFL phantom drafts and found the following four, all of which rated Weideman above Mackay:

Who’s the Blues goalkicking coach? Get him in at any price. 15.2. Really!!! 

Before tonight they'd kicked more behinds than goals, including 5.14 three weeks ago vs Geelong.

Gee the game has passed Marc Murphy. Didn’t watch the whole game but seemed like he got caught every time he got the ball. Limping to 300.

Oh please don't start BBP, I'm trying to forget this even transpired.

Port, Swans and Lions all have difficult games this weekend. GWS and Essendon in the mix for the 8 so have everything to play for while the Hawks in Tassie won't be easy for the Lions and particularly post the Clarko announcement

Us to win and those 3 teams to lose would make a perfect weekend.

And the cherry on top would be North beating Geelong in Tassie. Very unlikely but you never know.

JT would’ve been the greatest recruiter of all time had he selected a Coleman medalist and a probable top 3 Brownlow medalist in the same first round’s draft.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
