We just need to refocus. We've got this. Just watch

Hopefully are all done with the jitters, if we clean up or disposal we will get on top

Kick-start my heart 

I know the free was soft, very soft, diabolical even. But I'm really annoyed that May allowed himself to get sucked into that BS by Franklin.. Completely changed the trajectory of this game. 

Crowd felt very subdued that half. Gotta get loud Demons supporters!!!

Last year our cornerstone was to respond to adversity. Can we do it this year? We will need to do it .... come on dees

How can we make this a Melbourne game?

I really hope papley does not see the ball this half

Viney doesn't look right. He's either rattled or injured.

Petracca clearly not right.

This.

Same usual suspects in Sparrow and Nibbler who just fumble and cough up the footy so easily.

 

If you’re going to make that comment don’t just select your whipping boys. Viney has been fumbly, Hunt has missed so many easy handball targets. Harmes handballs to Viney when we have a 2 v 1 but handballs to a position where Viney has to check back in and we lose the quick breakaway 

If our midfield doesn’t lift this game is gone. 
I will never understand how Gawn Viney Clarry and Trac don’t rip games apart. That is an A++ combo. 

Come on Dees

Yep we had the ball no need to do anything.

Clearances... Swans 20

Us 12.

We're a goal down and often we haven't run games out very well. Not confident

Lost a bit of respect for Franklin tonight. Pathetic.

I think we'll be alright. We will consolidate this quarter with a blistering block of footy.. We're the better team, we're at home, we just need to get rid of the fumbles, play smart and utilise our i50 efforts. 

Hold them accountable. No more freebies!

 

Does anyone think Gus is a fail so far in the middle?  Send him back to the wing and bring Harmes in for a stint or is Harmes doing too well there?

Nup can't blame May for that act.

We will see how that leg is right here

Great goal first up. Let's do this! 

Never in doubt Clarry! 😅

When you are leading on scoreboard, you shall no do something like what May did, clearly our whole team affected by By that. one mistake after another, we just couldn't settle down. Hopefully, the halftime break can help the players clean their heads. In Rd23 of last year vs Geelong, we were poor in 2nd quarter but played much better 2nd half and won just. Come on Dees, you can do much better!

Good on you Oliver.

Never gives up.
