Anyone ask Bedford what he was thinking!!!
55 metres out - burning off his opponent - open 50 - open goal square …

and kicks 40 metres to the pocket where no one is. Really defies any level of thinking ?!?!?!  

Langdon didn’t tell him to keep going. Not his fault. He didn’t know what was behind him.

The lack of quality ruckman huge factor. No Jackson or Gawn any team would struggle. It one of those 4 points games we have to tough out. Crows at home no easy assignment but a loss here will hurt season prospect big time. Damn injuries

Carlton played two games and win with Silvagni in the ruck !! How … quick play and don’t kick to their ruckman in a pack. Ffs.

WTF. Everytime ball goes in Crows 50 Walker gets a head high tackle. And May needs to stop kicking long to the Crows ruckman. Just dumb.

yep he does the same kick everytime. There is no gawn there today. 

We have to be so much smarter kicking into our 50. Lower the eyes and look. Just don't bomb it in. 

 

Put Pickett in the middle for a bit. Two touches?! Come on we need him involved. We look rank forward of centre. As per. 

What a pathetic mob these umpires are.What other game has this Tex stager got free kicks by the dozen like this game. 


Stop bombing the [censored] ball when we’ve got no bloody talls left!

Edited by Lord Travis

If we  know we are losing the ruck then play to their ruckman, stats early in that quarter had us winning more than adelaide from their taps. its around the ground that we need to lift. we can get buy without a ruckman in the ruck, but we sorely miss a marking ruckman around the ground, neither of the Browns or weid are doing that job and it is cost us big time in turnovers.

AFl do not want us to  get too many games ahead..

Can't have top spot decided before Round 23, unless Geelong are going to be it.

He looked gassed about 10 min into that qtr.  No tank

For a bloke who's struggled to get a game for 3 years

You reckon he'd be ripped and fit and be able to run all day...

Comfortable at Casey


Sub Brown off as he looks injured and stick Tomlinson in as a forward. 
 

Can’t hurt to try something different.

Hmmm I’d have to see it again … I think he looked behind first 

If, in that half, we'd have had Max or Dogga instead of Weiderman, and we'd given them BBB and taken Walker, we'd be totally thrashing then here at half time.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
