Better 2nd half of qtr.  from the view from the game, it’s been a game of almost, often just out of touch.

Kelly and eagles around packs are doing well.  Their plan seems to be slow us down around packs to stop our quick breaks. 

Edited by darkhorse72

Not at our best but credit to the Eagles for turning up and applying the pressure

Grundy Fritsch TMac Lever doing well. McVee and Chandler having off days. JVR hitting packs and creating contests

The 4 points are safe but would like to see tidier ball use in the second half

    Commentary out West isnearly as bad as the umpiring

    Mindset still not where it should be.  This is the type of game we should just fire up and kill.  But no.... Our mindset is way off.

    Free kick count is 9-9. But it’s the ones they don’t pay that frustrates me.

    Whats the point of having the 4th umpire if they still refuse to pay the bleeding obvious?

    Thank you. It's the incorrect disposal by wc that sucks.

    Fair dinkum, the biased umpiring in the West Coast games should come under investigation. Of course nothing will happen with the protected species they are. Makes watching so hard. 

    Umpire No. 6 seems to be the problem.

    We are not switched on. How many times have we kicked it to a West Coast player.

    Disclaimer: Positive Police leave thread now, Melbourne are in front but people are negative. We get it.

    We're ticking along, doing just enough. Been clinical up forward which is good. Skills have been off though wit a tonne of wormburner kicks through the middle. Need to clean that up. 

    We did work our way back into it with more uncontested ball 123 - 114 but the worry is the turnovers West Coast are getting in dangerous areas where but haven't been able to convert. The Eagles should probably be 2 goals down at worst right now. 

    Win contested ball, be clean, no need to Hollywood around with it and just put it in the right place and kick some goals.

    More like a 2022 performance so far. Fritsch has a [censored] laser boot and has been the difference between the two sides.

    We're playing so terribly we're almost double their score.  Cheer up, little Demonlanders.

    It's OK but I think bbb is a much stronger mark.

    Trac has 2 contested possesions, no tackles and 1 clearance so far. Needs to lift.

    Fritata is a world class player

    JVR relentless competitor

    Viney doing the tough work in the middle

    Not much more positives so far

    100% Eagles are crowding the contest and putting on the pressure in numbers. 
    It's making it difficult to break out of the back half unless we switch the ball. 

    I think the players you mentioned + Trac will have a better second half. 

    Someone to clamp Hunt, he's been left completely alone all game

    God, there's a name I was happy to forget🤮

    The Eagles are cracking in and taking it on. Nothing wrong with our effort but our focus and attention to details is lacking. Would prefer us to simplify and stop the Hollywood handballs.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
