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.

    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.

    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.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
