Bad kicking…. I think the behind mentality has set in. Hard to break in game. 

Put Bowie Full-Forward for a bag of 10.

 

Easy fix.

Ambition - day was planned, pub lunch with a couple of other Dees, arvo ferry from Portarlington staying in town overnight, dining room dinner on 2nd level AFL Members area, celebrate the night after watching the Dees, back on ferry in morning with probable hangover

Reality - came down with Covid 2 days ago, will spend the day coughing and sneezing while watching the game instead !!

Go Dees

    We've had 12 more inside 50s and 8 more scoring shots yet we are losing. 

    Have coughed up the last 3

    Worst quarter of the last 2 years. Easily. Tigers beating us at our own game.

    Can only blame ourselves for letting them take the lead

    well we deserve to be losing.

    Win lose or draw....these blokes need to spend ALL training time just kicking at goal.

    Yep well thats what happens when you're so wasteful.


    Game is far from over but we are currently getting what we deserve. 

    12 easy misses is bloody unforgiveable.

    Hopefull this gives us a bit of a wake-up.

    We've played terrible, the tigers don't have much and we are only 3 down 

    It’s extraordinary that they’re in front considering our dominance.

    We won’t be that inefficient going forward in the rest of the game. Scoreboard flatters our opposition a lot.

    Well I got that wrong. Far out. Game should be out of Richmond’s reach.

    One of those half time resets would be great thanks Goody.

    Mark Williams will be absolutely fuming. We’ve done everything right except kicking goals. 

    Goodwin can put the greatest gameplan in place but if your forwards are failing at the fundamentals what can you do. 

     

    Woeful kicking. We are now in our own heads and they completed deflated us. A real shame as we are dominating but making an absolute meal of it inside 50. 

    [censored] we went into cruise control mid way through that quarter. Lazy, lazy, lazy.

    Need to get hungry

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
