Communication is an issue and, though it is a bit cliche, presence of mind.

 

Bad patch of umpiring decisions!

    I can name about 6 other players from that team who I loathe.

    This is the sort of game I support bringing in Vanders with the sole purpose of breaking heads. These Geelong scumbags need a good bloody smashing. 

    "I did mistakenly suggest that we hold AVDB back until the PF. Let him cut loose now if he's fit but within limits. Hit a few hard in the meantime. Have a few games. But save his best aggression for the GF if not suspended. Just like Essendon did to us." 

    Earlier post from this year.

    There no talking in our back line. Spoiling each other

    I see the good review camera has reappeared. What a surprise.

    FMD it's a grand parade of Geelong umpiring decisions!

    How was Max not paid the free for push off?

    Their finishing is far superior to ours. At the pointy end, this sadly means everything.

    Viney like a bullet!

    Is Tom McDonald playing tonight?


    I don’t know bout y’all but I’m wondering can Goodwin talk to the umpires at half time and ask them to get their geelong jumpers off? It’s blatant

    Why are we playing on at all costs and trying to thread the needle with passes too often?  Also handballing to players that are one foot away.

    Very few are taking responsibility with ball in hand.

    Poor kicks coming inside 50 that started with Tracc... again.

    Also there are too many at the contest.  Stay out and hassle your direct opponent.

    Pressure up in our forward half.   Too much room / time for them to work.

    Harmes clean it up mate.  Awful so far.

    Is this the K-Rock commentary on 7?


     

    Macca looks off so far.  Will need better than that to win.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
