our disposal in the forward 50 has been absolutely crap

 

Woey’s kicking is poor. Has other attributes hopefully just an off day?

It almost fees too congested in there 

finally took a good kick from TMac 

Bedford’s pressure is elite. Creating so many turnovers. 


I wonder if Sydney flooding our forward line and then slingshots forward will be the 

Tactic for Friday? We are finding it difficult to hit targets and score. 

TMac is moving extremely well. He might not play on Friday night but I think he will play AFL finals now. 

We look like we are playing to lose. Should be at least 5-6 goals in front.

Yes that looks obvious.  I think they did the exact thing in our AFL round 12 match.  Papley got out the back on a few occasions.

First half, Baker, Rosman, Howes and Laurie MIA.

Woewy and Smith poor disposal today.

Dunstan plenty of possies but with most up in the air going nowhere.

Havent noticed Turner and Tomlinson making mistakes.

Chandler no influence.

But we are leading.

Hopefully above players all lift.

Brown and Tom doing well up forward.

Weid actually doing well in the ruck and around the ground against 4 giants, Sinclair, Ladhams, McNamara and Amartey 

 

 

 

Too slow on the transition from defence and way too many high dump kicks into the forward line.

Add in bad inaccuracy (Swans have also missed some easy ones)

Have we had a switch of play all day

Time to use that mindfulness training, forget about our poor disposals and to start performing when under pressure. 

 We have to put goals on the board when we have the opportunities. Misses keep them in it.

 

best game I've seen Luke Dunstan play for us

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
