We waste so many chances going forward

    we should not be relying on free kick to win this, we need to rely on our field kicking, our kicking is pretty poor. The team is putting in the hard yards around the ground but then turning it over. we need to stop that switch, quite a few times they switch to langdons wing they get a kick at goal. Where are out players on that side of the ground where is their accountability. We need to strong last quarter to show then who is the better team. we have a few players who are down who need to lift, ANB is certainly one.

     

    Confident?

    Not really. The Pies have their tails up and we looked under serious pressure for pretty much that whole quarter. 

    But I'm holding hope that they spent all their tickets in that quarter, and rode their luck. It has to run out, right?

    WE HAVE TO MAKE THE MOST OF OUR OPPORTUNITIES INSIDE 50!!!!

    Momentum has turned big time. Pies made up their tackle deficit in one quarter. Their pressure is immense and we are crumbling. 


    I'm getting really sick of our players stopping, trying to take on 2 tacklers, then handballing over their heads. Collingwood's pressure is too good for this and we are turning it over to their runners too many times. ANB in particular is driving me nuts.

    Also Max, and BBB should be allowing midfielders to pick it up off the ground. 

    And if I see the Pies get 1 more mark  within 20 metres of goal I will freak out. 

    Having said all that I still reckon we are the better side at this point. 

    Nibbler is garbage. Everytime we try and transition our way through he feels the need to completely stop in his own tracks and take the tackler on. 

    So infuriating

    Pretty sure Nibbler has a bit of calf soreness.  Harmes time

    Yes ANB is seriously [censored]. Fumbles is his new nickname. Of turnover king !!!

    Maxy please stop kicking mate

    Stop kicking to pockets, open the forward line up, Jesus we are predictable.


    We are in trouble here. We won’t win this in a close one. Pies are full of confidence. We are playing what can only be described as brain dead football. 

    If you were a neutral you'd say Collingwood are poised to pinch this. We need to raise our game to change the narrative.

    Can't remember Viney's last touch.

    Double the inside 50s yet only a goal up. 

    Get it in quick and our defence is caught napping, They are always on the move.

    We need to be willing to risk a few things this last quarter. Our system is seemingly choking our instinct atm, we have very little dare.


    Answer the challenge Dees

    Has Quanore been on Kozzie most of the night?  If so he's probably had the better of him so far

    Yes I think we need one set of fresh legs 

    This why I never post that we will smash a side.

    Demons just need to take a few of our opportunities and we will be okay!


    We are slow and stodgy. We need to lift big time otherwise we lose this game

    We never win these games.

     

    .....but would love it to stop tonight.

    We are toast I think, pies evened out the contest which was our advantage, now they getting more supply they over run us

     

    Anb and others are forcing a stoppage by receiving the tackle. Creates lots of stoppages and clearances 

    But not using it well at all

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
