Daisy needs a big 2nd half.
 

Not sure if it’s just superior opposition or the improved standard of the game has gone past her best.

 

 

Short kicking does not work.

 

I don’t like saying it, but Daisy needs to be dragged. She can’t hold down a spot at HF. Too slow now

Adelaide are smashing us. Should be 7 goals up

We have too many midgets


Some of these crows women will put a fortune through the canteen after the game too 

Zanker has to back up ruck and Parry stay at CHF because we are absolute a mess there 

 

Pearce, Zanker, Hore, Bannon, Parry, West have collectively done 2/5ths of FA. Oh and Mithen too

This is the worst performance I can remember from our girls ever. They cannot find anything forward on centre. Zanker, usually one of our best, has had a complete stinker. Coach really needs to spin the magnets and change something in the last. This is a really embarrassing performance

Any chance we can play on? Instead of trying the slow possession game. Only allows Adelaide to set up.

We are. Playing way too fast. Need to slow down and get numbers around the drop. The lack of coordination from our forwards and mids is alarming 

A bit of noise of affirmation going on.


Crows have 4 out with covid protocols and lost their captain mid game plus another two and it’s 14 shots to 2. 

disgraceful performance 

Maybe, just maybe we are not good enough.

Anyone willing to join me on the Paxy is overcooked train? 

After today, yep I’m getting there

Yeah …we are way off the benchmarks. We cannot get the ball moving with any fluidity at all. The signs were there the last 2 weeks, but we did enough to get over the line. Against a quality outfit today, we have been completely shown up.

Taylor Harris is a shadow of her former self. Lost all conditioning and looks unfit and uncoordinated. Unless she is jumping at the ball, completely useless 

It’s not a day to judge the forwards too much, she’s had a good start of the year. But she only likes to chase if she can nail someone in a tackle which is the wrong attitude. 


The amount of fumbles is a disgrace. A lot of players hearing footsteps.
Two weeks is a row of rubbish (bar the final qtr last week). And not working hard enough as demonstrated by being out numbered at nearly every contest.

They are capable of so much better than this.

She is second to the ball and when she ‘nails’ one it is clumsy and she gives away free kicks. Simple as that

That 3rd quarter was pathetic. Let us just hope that it is the worst quarter of footy we play all year. 

 

Holding the ball interpretation is a JOKE

  • 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?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    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?
