Serious question again - can the club call the umpires out (with discretion ) at half time?

 

good kicking is good footy

 

i forgot Isaac smith - also hateable. So smug

    Can’t see us winning this. Too many players are well down. We can’t win a clearance. We are not winning the contest in the air. They are all over us.

    This is looking pretty good hey, so much for a big forward never getting on top of Melbourne.

    Another [censored] throw from selwood plus another push from Hawkins

    Defenders. Again

    we need half time badly so we can re-group

    While there’s plenty of ****ty calls that have gone their way, they’re also playing better than us 

    Started the game with a few mid-strengths, already hit the G&T’s before half time. This could get ugly

    Not good. Something needs to be done with Hawkins. He’s way too off the leash.

    We have stopped.

    Our backline looks a rabble and they easily crowd our fwd line.

     


    Defence is being smacked, and nothing is easy going forward, Practically every player on the field is down on their usual form.

    See you at Adelaide Oval next week Port.



    see you in adelaide next week   if we could go

    Its over !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

     

    just win next week or the week later

     

    I

    If selwoods kick was far enough for a mark to be called then Danger’s run without bouncing was too far.

    I’ve had a gut-full of this. Might tune in later. 
    WCW out. 👋 

    There is literally no point playing Hawkins body on body, that's what he wants!  May is giving 10 kilos.

    F#@cking tsunami of goals

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
