Out played badly there. Reset during the second.

 

If Goodwin doensnt put a hard tag in Daniel he is an [censored] ffs picket needs to lift 

Petty can't do all the aerial stuff. 

Start winning the ground ball at stoppages.

And stop fumbling. 

And Fritsch, your howler was a momentum killer.

 

How's that not a mark to may

Dogs defence is playing extremely well. We can’t seem to win a ground ball if we don’t win the contested mark. Stark contrast to the Geelong game.


Not looking good at all right now. It's like the Dogs had 2 extra players all quarter.

Everything looked so promising after the first quarter 😪

Worst possible result this quarter.

We all see what might be coming: Melbourne crumbles under the pressure. Bulldogs stick it up em one more time.

This is not going to be easy. Please show something in the 2nd half Demons. Please let us get there!

 

We have been able to reset all season. time to hit the reset button now.

Spot on.

Constantly overrunning the ball and the Bulldogs look far more dangerous when the ball hits the ground in their forward line.

Because the maggots have $$$$. on the Dogs

Bont getting uncontested marks. We best do like we did against Geelong in round 23.

Edited by Green Demon

Just can't see us winning. Never could. This Dogs team at their absolute best was always better than our best. We were just better for longer throughout the season. They are a super, super team.

WHY AND HOW THE FUURG GOODWIN IS DANIELS BEING ALLOWED TO RUN AROUND UNTAGGED???

FFS GOODWIN WHAT THE FUURG BURY HIM

TAG DANIEL HOW FUUGIN HARD IS IT AND HARMES TO BONTEM

To many missing Tmac turn up.  Harmes to bont 

Kozzie get involved 


We will reset. A couple of silly mistakes changed the momentum. But it’s going to go to the wire now. Boys need to lift and get a bit of confidence back.

It will be game over pretty quickly here if goody can’t pull a rabbit out of a hat

Complete opposite qtrs.

Nope. They were much better, and coming harder still. 

 

Was that our worst quarter for the year, barring that quarter against Geelong in Round 23?

Worse, so many missed opportunities in that first quarter too, we could have almost snuffed them out before we even hit QT.

Backline wilting under pressure. Dogs can't miss & our forward line all over the place. Frisch needs to lower his eyes & we need something from Kosi as this game is fast slipping away from us.

On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
