Nathan Buckley’s trying to argue that Richmond have forced this scenario. He’s completely ignoring our inaccuracy. That’s the game right there. Appalling commentary from someone who should know better. 

Probably shows in the big picture why he doesn't have a coaching job

His worst game for a long time. Only upside from here.

Fritta needs to get on his bike. Vloustin is his opponent and is destroying him and us. 

Fritsch doesn’t really know how to play as a defensive forward. He needs to improve his intensity at the contest.

Gone to sleep here .. putrid effort 

What a  load of crap. We are 3 points down despite kicking 3.12.  Yes, our goal kicking is putrid but on the balance of play we're a 6-goal better team. Message at half-time is keep playing the way we are but just choose better options in the Forward 50 and kick straight! I'd be amazed if Richmond can keep this tackling pressure up but if they can they probably deserve to win 😞

Dunstan is no Jack Viney.

I’m done with Weid. Move his [censored] to the dead pocket and tell him to play up and down that flank only.

Park BBB in the square and have the smalls rove off him

Agree on Weidman , we actually need BBB leading further up the ground

Spargo, Kozzie, ANB, Sparrow nail their relatively easy shots and it’s game over. We’ve kept them in the game simple as that.

Richmond kicked 3-1 that quarter for 8 entries, we kicked 1-6 for 17 entries

We kicked 3 goals from 32 inside 50s. 
Kicked 3 goals from 17 shots. That’s f@$)$sd.

Tracca and Jackson and Kozzie  and Fritta might want to get involved the next half.

When it comes to games like this, pressure games, proper pressure. We learn a lot about our players. Good that you mentioned Kozzie. Anyone who bags Kozzie for whatever reasons needs to watch this first half. I loved Kozzie before tonight and I’m sure we all do, but wow, really impressed by him tonight. Has he had limited opportunities? Absolutely, so that’s why the casual observer, and probably limited knowledge of football supporter, would deem Kozzie to be having a quiet game. But the kid has been willing, and mostly important, has shown great intent. 

I will give you some beyond sh*t players for tonight. Petracca, Neal Bullen, Luke Jackson. Probably more, I assume McDonald ain’t out there. 


Hopefully Goody is pointing out we are dominating except for the scoreboard & tell them to kick straight

Translation please.

Gus gave Jacko a spray for his poor defensive running. He lost Reiwoldt and let him mark uncontested.

On Weid’s 1st half , Tommy McDonald back in next week. Weid has to lift and take a contested mark.

any chance a tall forward could be near the goals when we kick it to the square

There's been a few turnovers downfield just because of his hussle

Been performing quite poorly all year.


We are blazing away, just kicking long to any old contest and expecting to kick goals. And we aren't. 
Time to go smaller up forward and get Fritta and BBB room to lead. Play Weid higher up the ground and max or dogga to stay out. 

Aside from some sloppy play through the ground, a few guys being really quiet and some strange disposal choices, we should be in front by a few goals at least. Goals win games and I'll back us in to turn it around in the second half. There's no way we can keep missing, right? RIGHT!!?

Anyway.

We'll pile on 12 to 3 from here and Bowey will get to sing again. 

 

We do not need to do anything but put that foot all through the big sticks. We are beating them in nearly every stat  we need to be more clinical, lead to the right spots and kick through the footy.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
