These [censored] wce supporters are close to being insufferable. 

They already are in my books. 

 

Neal Bullen with 7 tackles to half time

Each game brings its unique challenges which are different from the assumptions made prior. This is a good test. And yet we are double their score.

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. 

The Ump #6 is atrocious.  Dumbfounded by his calls thus far.

In a game like this you look for positives........

Fritsch ... maybe

I'm positive we could use the ball betrer and umps could start to ping eagles players for incorrect disposal.

Fritta on fire. Oliver his usual self. We are using are wings again well. Anb working hard.

 

Edited by leave it to deever


We've had a very hard start to the season. Im happy to just get through this game with a win. And no injuries. We are travelling again next week.

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

Didn't think he was still around

We are doing ok. It’s hot, the Eagles have a plan, and 4 supporters on the field pretending to be umpires.

I feel like some of our players are doing well. Jack Viney is growing with every game, Nibblers tackling has been great, and Fritta knows where the goals are.

Koz needs more work on his goal kicking. It’s a raffle. He’s much better in traffic.

And a 6 day break and yet, Saints and Bombers yet to leave Victoria. 

LOL how quickly it goes from 100 point thumping percentage booster to I just want a win.

Good sides bury this mob with 7 out, it's all about percentage for this game.

If we ratchet up our own pressure and really crack in and win contested footy, we’ll do much better from stoppage and that should hopefully clear up transition from d50.

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

He will.

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. 

Yeah credit to WC for putting in the effort but we have not come to play. We are taking it too easy. Playing loose and not enough effort with ball use. 

I always worry about games we should win easily that we get to complacent and dont come out to play. today seems to be a bit like that, we lose to bottom sides too frequently. We need them to focus on beating this mob, playing our brand of good football not their wresting match which leaves many decisions in the umpires hands, either to ignore frees that are there or pay them. so far we seem to have gotten the short end of the stick. Given the heavy eagle crowd i dont see that changing in the second half. We need percentage and show that we can beat sides well.

We're a good side but that's just not the Melbourne way.

WC will hit a wall at 20-minute mark. Will still be a 10-goal win.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
