    Slow start not a surprise given we haven’t played a good team in weeks but geez we’ve made awful mistakes and the umps have stitched us up

    first passage of play set the tone. Purcell missed the handball out of the middle and our defender tapped the ball into the Crows players path to score. its been error strewn since

    Pathetic quarter. The handball at all costs game is killing us. The basic errors costly. Missing set shot in front of goal, criminal. Feel like it’s a big waste of time coming here, hope it turns around

    Crows are setting up for the linking/exit handball and covering the switches.  That initial stopped our run.  Their play seems to kick it forward quickly to space and pressure again. How did Taylor not get a push int he back for the ruck contest for that goal.  blatant two hands in the back with a visible push.

    Didn't make it easy but finally one on the board.

    There's a few players having serious 'moments' out there, but the real power will come only when the system settles into place...

    Oh, no, wait, there's another goal.

    Moments of brilliance doing the job.

    Asleep in the first quarter but gritted it out and showed a truckload of guts to get back into this game

    Crows will re-set so not over my any means

    Fun Fact: Just 113 AFL players took as many bounces in the entire 2022 season as did Alyssa Bannan in that single run down the wing.

    Don't know how many times in the history of any level of Australian football there has been a player start a run inside the defensive 50 and finish it inside forward 50.

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
