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

 

Yeah im into day 5 after getting it after having to stay home all of last week due to close contact. So that makes it day 12 for me🤯

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

    • Sad 1

    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

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
