Please get Viney off the ball he is getting caught every time he takes possession move him forward do something to change the mix  They are negating our strengths

Goodwin mix it up a bit please

 

Might be time for a few Toby minutes.

As you said push Viney forward for a stint.  Viney has burnt us coming inside twice now.

If you arent doing that at least pull Viney aside and make him aware of where he needs to improve with some vision at half time.

Same with Kozzy & Lingers with their mark and decision making on the wing/HF.  Clean that schiit up FCS!  Can also go inside once in a while.  Straight ahead all the time is too predictable and easy to defend.

    Back 6 need to majorly switch on, start winning some more contest and clearance and lower the eyes inside 50. 
     

    Geelong fans make me 🤮

    I'm sorry but May's kick ins still do my head in. They are to predictable and nothing happens. Find another option.

    poor delivery into our forward line, just booting without looking who to. need to lower their eyes and make sure they hit a target. it would also be nice if a couple of these players could move the ball on quicker. taking too much time to kick down the line gives geelong lots of time to flood back.

    Watching the same game as me 😊

    First vs second at a venue with a capacity of 21,000, playing in the dark.

    The AFL is a disgrace.

    Ripping game of footy though. Loved Tracs goal.

    The fumbles.

    Mostly off handballs.... a few too many are also missing targets

    We're far below our best and still right in this.

    Cats will look to switch or use the centre corridor around eighty percent of the time and we need to counter this as a priority!

    We've got this if we block the switch and tighten our skills.

    One of Tracc or Clarry need to cut loose in the second half for us to step up.

    C'mon Dees, bury them, they'll get tired.

    8 possessions between Kozzie, Bedford and Spargo - unsustainable 

    Dare say we probably need another tall target.

    That’s 127 kick-in consecutively out to 55 metres on the left to the pack.  It’s a defensive type play.  For the past 14 matches.  And something different is … like others who play on. Pass. They run past and deliver to the half forward area.  Hmmmmm. Maybe try it just once.  


    On the plus side, we're in a much improved position compared to HT of round 23 last year...

    Maggot  no23 why do you hate MFC so much. Is it because they don't appeal often enough. Is it because you have been told to. Is it because you seem to be able to make sure that you bounce the ball that slightly is off line enough, three in a row, to favour one team over another, or is it just that you have no idea of distance or what holding the ball is.

    They keep going through the middle and we are just non existent there. Most of their goals so far have been them coming through the middle. Trac and Oliver keeping us in this atm

    This is very similar to the Dogs game late last year. The cat are playing their grand final just like the doggies did in round 19.

    What a rubbish ground ball spends half the time out of bounds and you see more out on the full than any other ground. Should have been bulldozed years ago

    Feels like they are playing in a phone box.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
